"La situazione sta peggiorando. Gridate con noi che i diritti umani sono calpestati da persone che parlano in nome di Dio ma che non sanno nulla di Lui che è Amore, mentre loro agiscono spinti dal rancore e dall'odio.
Gridate: Oh! Signore, abbi misericordia dell'Uomo."

Still violence in Bartella and Mosul

The spiral of violence in the Mosul area does not stop. According to the web site Ankawa.com since some days ago there are no news of a woman, married and mother of five children, kidnapped in the village of Bartella and for whom a huge ransom that the family is unable to pay seems to have been requested.

By the same site the piece of news, even worse, of the killing in Mosul of a 25 years old boy, Rani Yousif Hanna who had just left the Assyrian church of Mar Toma and who, as it is said, reacting to an attempt of kidnapping would be killed in cold blood. Born in Mosul, Rami had fled two years ago to Syria with his family, was in the Iraqi city only since two weeks ago, and would go back to Syria in a short while.
