Christians Cry Loud to Stop Terrorism in Syria
TEHRAN (FNA)- Metropolitan of Mexico, Venezuela and Central America
and the Caribbean Islands for the Roman Orthodox Church Antonius
Shidrawi said Christians' cries around the world were continuous
tirelessly, appealing for repelling Takfiri extremism and stopping
support for the western-backed terrorist groups who were committing
systematic crimes in Syria.
"The USA allies with terrorism through sending weapons to the Takfiri
terrorist groups in Syria," Antonius Shidrawi said in a SANA's report.
Metropolitan Shidrawi called upon Washington in a statement directed
to the US Ambassador in Lebanon David Hill "you are supporting those
who do not know what freedom is...The Christians are being slaughtered
and displaced from their homeland in Syria, while you are sending
weapons to the Takfiri terrorists under the name of opposition."
Metropolitan Shidrawi addressed the US Ambassador, saying, "It has
been more than a year since two archbishops were kidnapped in Syria,
and we have not heard a single word criticizing this act by your state
whatsoever neither have we heard that it would pressure its ally,
Turkey, to release them, but rather we hear that it will continue to
send weapons to the armed opposition."
In the same context, Eastern and Western Greek, Armenian, Coptic,
Maronite and Catholic churches in Austria urged for stopping
supporting terrorists in Syria and the Middle East, protecting
minorities and monitoring extremists, Salafist movements and sleeper
cells in Europe.
This came during prayers held by the churches Saturday for releasing
the kidnapped archbishops Yohanna Ibrahim, the Syriac Orthodox
archbishop of Aleppo, and Paul Yazigi, the Greek Orthodox archbishop
of Aleppo, who were abducted by the armed terrorist groups last year.
The churches warned of the danger of the terrorists on the Austrian
and European societies and the civil peace in Europe and the whole
world.
