Two Churches Sacked in Syria

Hat tip Coptic Solidarity


Coptic Solidarity has posted a report on the sacking of two Christian churches in Syria.

 "They capped off their “victory” by raising the ISIL flag—which is identical to al-Qaeda’s black flag with the words, “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger” (the Islamic shehada, or profession of faith).

The same flags were raised on some of the 80 Christian churches destroyed in Egypt weeks earlier at the hands of the Muslim Brotherhood and their supporters.
After the desecration of the Church of the Annunciation came the Church of the Martyr’s turn.  It was treated in the same manner, also with Islam’s black flag raised atop its dome in place of the broken cross."

Question: Would that black flag be the same one we saw last week at New York City's Muslim Day parade?
