Again terrible news from Mosul.
Msgr. Shleimun
Warduni, Chaldean Patriarchal Vicar, by telephone from
Baghdad reported to
Baghdadhope the piece of news of the killing in cold blood
of two Christian boys. The boys, two brothers of a Syriac Catholic
priest, Father Mazen
Ishoa who was kidnapped in October 2007 and later released,
were killed in their home in Mosul by unknown individuals who raided
it to commit the crime. There are still no official news but Msgr.
Warduni said that maybe also the boys and priest's father was victim
of the attack.
"We need to move the conscience of everyone" said Msgr.
Warduni repeating the appeal he launched a few days ago to do
something to stop the "massacre of Christians in Mosul."
"Where is the conscience?" urges the prelate, "Where is
life? where are human rights?" "What is Man if two innocent boys can
be killed in their house?" The situation in Mosul is "of
great danger. Who commit these crimes and why?"
Many questions, no aswers.
That things are coming into a head in Mosul is also clear from the
news that Msgr. Warduni
confirms that all the Christian students enrolled at the University
of Mosul and who come from nearby villages are not attending classes
for fear of attacks as already happened in early January when to be
targeted with explosive devices were the buses that transport them
to the city.
