What of Syria's Christians?

Hat tip Vlad Tepes


The below clip shows part of the testimony before Congress of the Hudson Institute's Nina Shea as she describes the danger confronting Syria's Christians, who are caught in the middle of the civil war and are being attacked by certain Islamist factions fighting against  the Assad government. Note that the man sitting to her right is Dr Zuhdi Jasser, a courageous Muslim Syrian-American, who is active against Islamic extremists and stealth jihadists  in the US.

Ms Shea refers to protections that Syrian Christians reportedly had under the Assad regime. This is not an attempt on my part in posting this to defend the murderous Assad regime. Yet, amid all this bloodshed, our foreign policy must take the Christian minority in Syria into account.
