IRAQ: Christians flee Mosul after ISIS ultimatum
to convert or leave

Christians were fleeing Iraq’s jihadist-held city of Mosul en masse Friday after mosques relayed an ultimatum giving them a few hours to leave, the country’s Chaldean patriarch and witnesses said.

Al-Arabiya “Christian families are on their way to Dohuk and Arbil,” in the neighboring
autonomous region of Kurdistan, Patriarch Louis
Sako told AFP. “For the first time in the history of Iraq, Mosul is now empty of Christians.” Witnesses said messages telling Christians to
leave the city by Saturday were blared through loudspeakers from the city’s mosques Friday.
A statement dated from last week and purportedly issued by the Islamic State of Iraq
and Syria (ISIS) jihadist group that took over the city and large swathes of Iraq during a sweeping offensive last month warned Mosul’s Christians
they should convert, pay a special tax, leave or face death.
“We were shocked by the distribution of a statement by the Islamic State calling on
Christians to convert to Islam, or to pay unspecified tribute, or to leave their city andtheir homes taking only their clothes and no luggage, and that their homes would then belong to the Islamic State,” Sako said.
The patriarch, who is one of the most senior Christian clerics in Iraq, and residents contacted
by AFP said Islamic State militants had in recent days been tagging Christian houses with the letter N for “Nassarah”, the term by which the Koran refers to Christians.

The statement, which was seen by AFP, said
“there will be nothing for them but the sword” if
Christians reject those conditions. www.barenakedislam.com/2014/07/18/iraq-christians-flee-mosul-after-isis-ultimatum-to-convert-or-leave/

The real spirit of al-lah on the loose!
This al-lah must be helped or why can't baal (al-lah) contend for itself?
This was the way it was planted by the grand terrorist at the initial time, without this method, islam will fizzle.[b]

I'm not surprised!
They are only acting the script that was written before them, and following the footsteps of their grandmaster.

I know some of their brothers will soon come and hypocritically denounce them but inwardly the spirit of brotherhood in them is rejoicing that the work is progressing and the infidels are receiving the just reward prescribed by the holy book for their disbelief.

It is only a fool that will not by now, understand the spirit that is at work, bringing deaths, pains and sorrows to hundreds on daily basis.

If not in maidugiri it will be Yobe, if not Yobe it is Yemen, if not Yemen, Syria, if not Syria, Iran, if not Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, The list is just endless, and someone will still tell me that he is yet to understand the very ONE behind this religion?

The GOD i know is a GOD of peace not evil.

THE EARLIER WE REALISE THIS THE BETTER FOR US!!!!

This is a thread most nairaland e-jihadist will choose to ignore. The bold ones among them will come up with their scripted excuses that 'they are not real muslims', 'Islam is a religion of peace', 'they are being sponsored by the CIA', 'they dont understand the koran', 'they are trying to paint Islam black', 'they are few extremist', 'it is a Jewish progaganda against Islam', 'it is being blown out of proportion by Islamophobes' and other Islamic lies.

The truth remains, these are true muslims following the example of mohammed (shit be upon him), according to his deeds as recorded in the koran and the al-hadiths.

Islam and oppression are inseparable. The muslim world (especially saudi arabia) will never condemn this action but will go on a killing spree if their 'prophet' (shit be upon him) is 'offended'.
