Guess which religion suffered most by the Iraqi invasion. Christianity.

According to an article published today by the Robin Harris in the National Review (article), the Christian population in Iraq is shrinking very quickly since the invasion and fall of Saddam.

…Christianity now faces extinction. The 1987 census recorded 1.4
million Christians in Iraq. Numbers began to drop as conditions
deteriorated after the first Gulf War. There were, though, around
800,000 at the time of the U.S-led invasion of 2003. Of these, about
half have now left the country altogether, while more than 100,000 are
internally displaced persons.

Harris continues:

Members of all religions have been affected by the violence since the
toppling of Saddam Hussein. But Christians are in a worse position
since they suffer directly because of their Christian faith. Targeted
by Islamist extremists, they are confronted by demands to convert,
death threats, looting of their homes and businesses, systematic
intimidation, abductions for ransom, bombings, and frequently murder.
Because Christians are known to be weak they and their property are
also prey to gangsterism. Churches and church leaders are particular
targets for Islamists.

Someone remind me again why we are there in Iraq?
