France Opens Borders To All Christians Persecuted by Islamists In Iraq
BarbWire ^ | 8-6-14 | Tim Brown

France, the once atheistic land, has really began to find a spine in recent weeks. I reported a little over a week ago that France had banned Pro-Palestinian terror protests and leveled stiff penalties for violators. Now, word is that France is opening up their borders for asylum to Christians suffering persecution from Islamists in Iraq.

The US is welcoming them as well, provided they enter via Mexico and without any papers.

I stopped years ago.

Vive La France.

I just pray they wake up in time to deal with their Muslim ticking bomb.

I think perhaps you are right.

The leftists have their fondest wish - Americans can no longer be proud of occupying the moral high ground.

France really needs this considering their upcoming religious war in 2050.

I wonder if they would take some Yazidis, if they are not all exterminated by ISIS.

What upside-down world are we in that France shows more courage than this country?

But here we are.

Bravo, France.

I’ve only been to two Masses in Paris and both of them were the most beautiful Masses of my lifetime.

Defend your Jews, France, and you go to the head of the class. Your muzzies will not help you in any way...

They should be a careful & make sure that the “Christians” are what they claim to be.

The writer seems to enjoy his France-bashing.

He forgot (?) that they came out in the hundreds of thousands to march on Paris in favor of heterosexual marriage. Just last year.

Puts us to shame.

Right there are 40,000 of them on a mountain top that lacks water. Down below ISIS awaits the chance to kill all of them.

Good on the Frenchies. They also accepted a lot of the Amerasian(Vietnamese kids fathered by American soldiers) kids when America wouldn't. I don't know if this story is known by a lot of Americans.Amerasian children are some of the most strikingly beautiful kids you've ever seen.

It’s a sad day for USA when France takes the lead on rescuing Christians, but hey we have huge numbers of Muslims both legal and illegal. Not to mention human traffickers and gang members from south of the border. Does it make us all criminals when our government supports the trafficking of children, exposing them to all manner of harm and death.

I doubt that they are safe in increasingly jihadist dominated France.
