Iraq: Chaldean Patriarch Meets With Leading Shiite Cleric



The following excerpts are from AINA.org:

The head of the Chaldean Catholic Church met with Iraq's leading Shiite Muslim cleric, who expressed sympathy for the plight of Christians persecuted by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant.

The Islamic State is a Sunni Muslim jihadist group.

"I asked him to call for speeding up the formation of a national unity government," Patriarch Louis Raphaël I Sako said following his August 9 meeting with Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, who stated that persecuted Christians would be welcome to take refuge in his city of Najaf.

Wake Up America



This is my opinion, and to those who don't agree with me or don't like it...too bad.

In my 59 years, I have seen a lot of politicians come and go. Some were good people who placed their country or their constituents before themselves. Others were only out for themselves and made it apparent.

In Barack Obama, we now have as President a man who is the most egotistical and incompetent excuse for a leader I have ever seen. If he is not incompetent, then he most surely is evil.

His administration is more corrupt, dirty, and underhanded than any I have seen. They make the Watergate burglars look like a bunch of choir boys. They don't even do a good job of hiding their corruption, and with a compliant media, they don't even have to try to hide their underhanded actions in the dark. They do them in broad daylight without fear of opposition from a media that is as corrupt as they themselves.

I am tired of his tendency to golf while America burns. I am tired of his turning his back on our allies, and embracing our enemies. I am tired of his unlawfully imposing his will on America's religious organizations, institutions... our corporations and companies as well as individual Americans. I am tired of his ignoring and placing no value on the men and women heroes of this country who have served faithfully to protect and defend America. I am tired of his ignoring the sovereignty of our nation by allowing thousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants and "undocumented workers"to mount an invasion of this nation. I am tired of his ignoring the plight of Christians and other minorities from the Islamic barbarians around the world.

We as a people can not allow this brazen undermining of our country to continue. The Obama administration and his party's majority in the Senate must be stopped and held to account at all costs. I urge each and every person who can vote to get up off your duff, and vote to send a message to Barack Obama and his cohorts in the Senate and the media. It is time to show them that the American people are mad as he**, and we aren't going to take it any more!

NEPAL Nepal, Christians alone rush to aid of flood victims - Asia News



The following excerpts are from AsiaNews.it:

Kathmandu (AsiaNews) - In less than 24 hours dozens of people have been killed and tens of thousands displaced by the floods that have hit Nepal. For the moment only the Church, its institutions and some NGOs are working to rescue the affected people. As every year, the population denounce, the government inaction has led to a lack of prevention and emergency measures.

Floods have swamped the western part of the country. The most affected districts include Doti, Mahakali, Kailali, Kanchanpur, Bardia, Dang, Banke, Siraha, Saptari and Nawalparasi, but 40 other districts reported a variety of problems.

Minister of Information and government spokesman, Minendra Rijal, said: "We are aware of the problem and we are trying to do our best with limited resources. The government is grateful that several organizations, Christian and non, are helping the affected population".

According to the Central Disaster Management Office at least 10 thousand homes were damaged, 100 thousand people have been displaced and hundreds more are in need of aid.

Pom Bahadur Pun, who has been displaced from Jajarkot, says: "We risk our lives but the government is not doing enough to save us. We lost everything, but we want to save our lives." At the same time, however, he adds, "we are very grateful for the help and prayers of the Christians".
