Russia is the only major world power which is interested in protecting Christians. Britain, France and China aren't and after the Iraqi catastrophe, it's perfectly clear that neither is the US.
Russia is emerging from a 75 year, militantly atheistic nightmare and becoming once again, the Christian country it once was. Catholics familiar with the Fatima prophecies know this and understand it.
The US nightmare is just beginning.
I fear you are right.
Never thought I would see this.
First of all, China is a dedicated ally of Russia, even when they act like they aren’t. They also oppose intervention in Syria, so I’m not sure why you mentioned them. Secondly, membership in the ROC in Russia is more cultural than anything else. The recent example of religious laws there is merely a manifestation of Kremlin policy. Not a result of Christian ethics. Lastly, Russia supports people who simply kill Christians and Jews in other locales. Syria is special since they have interests there. Georgia has Christians, but Putin still invaded it. I still remember photos of mangled bodies and Russian soldiers burning American flags.
Agree.
