"Tell The Christians to Come Home"

Michael Yon has done some amazing reporting lately, especially on the issues of Muslims and Christians working together such as they did when they put the cross back on St. John's.

His dispatch today, as reported at Fox News, is about a service at St. John's in which local Muslims are asking their Christian friends to come home:

Muslims mostly filled the front pews of St John’s, Muslims who want their Christian friends and neighbors to come home. The Christians who might see these photos likely will recognize their friends here. The Muslims in this neighborhood worry that other people will take the homes of their Christian neighbors and that the Christians never will come back.

And so they came to St John’s in force, and they showed their faces, and they said, "Come back to Iraq. Come home." They wanted the cameras to catch it. They wanted to spread the word: Come home.

Muslims keep telling me to get it on the news. "Tell the Christians to come home to their country Iraq."

Christians were heavily persecuted when al-Qaeda controlled the area and many of them fled. Their friends and neighbors want them back.
