    It will be Obama and his liberal leftist henchman vs. a government not afraid to mention the name of Jesus... amazing isn't it? ... let people say what they want against Maliki but this announcement doesn't come out without his approval

"

    Rose confirmed that "there is concern of increased migration of Iraqi Christians abroad, which we reject," calling "the state to give more assurances to communities to reunite all the Iraqis without regard to their religious beliefs and nationalism."

    For her part, engineer Christian Ann required for "tomorrow's Press," "Today we celebrate the birth of Jesus the neighborhood who taught us the true meaning of peace and we hope to be implementers and sponsors of the commandments of peace hurry out", calling for "all Christians out of Iraq to return to their own country instead of alienation that does not find useful.

    Iraqi government declares Christmas a 'national holiday'


    by Joseph Mahmoud

    In his recent address to the authorities, the Chaldean Patriarch had asked for an official recognition of the holy day. Mar Sako said that "Jesus did not come just for Christians, but for everyone"; he also emphasises the "special respect" Muslims have for Jesus. The recognition is a new and important step for a long-persecuted minority.


    Baghdad (AsiaNews) - In a new and important step towards the Christian minority, the Iraqi government accepted a request by the Chaldean Patriarchate to recognise 25 December as an official day of celebration and a national holiday for all of the country's citizens. In Karrada, a neighbourhood on the eastern bank of the Tigris River where Christians, Shias and Sunnis live peacefully together, the authorities had already set up a five-metre Christmas tree.

    As a show of "solidarity", the decision sends a signal meant to curb an exodus that has decimated the Christian community in the past ten years.

    It comes after His Beatitude Mar Raphael Louis Sako I wrote a letter to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki last week, asking him to make 25 December a "day of rest for all Iraqis."

    For the patriarch, such a recognition would be a way to acknowledge the value and importance of a community that has for centuries actively contributed to the development of the nation.

    In his letter, the Chaldean Patriarch explained that "Jesus did not come just for Christians, but for everyone", stressing the "special respect" Muslims "have for Him."

    In response, the Iraqi cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister al-Maliki took this "important decision" yesterday morning.

    In Baghdad, local authorities also decked out some areas of the capital with Christmas lights and trees to "show their respect for and closeness to" the Christian community at this time of celebration.

    After the US invasion in 2003, Islamic extremists targeted the Christian minority, killing hundreds of its members, including a bishop, priests, businessmen, doctors, and politicians.

    Because of this, Christians in their thousands have fled the country over the past ten years, reducing the community from more than two million to less than 300,000.
