IRAQ – Christians face increasing threats, violence
Iraq
November 2004

Excerpt:
Leaflets are being distributed with the message: "Christians go; leave Iraq." Word is being passed around in the mosques, telling Muslims not to buy anything from Christians. Not only are they infidels, it is said, but they will soon be leaving, so the Muslims will be able to take their homes and property for free.

One Muslim is worth 12 Christians
Iran
November 2004

Excerpt:
In the case of homicide, the diyeh for an adult Muslim male in Iran is valued at 180 million rials. However, under shariah, the compensation for a non-Muslim man is usually set at a fraction of this value, and for a Muslim woman compensation is similarly set at half that of a Muslim man. In Iran, a non-Muslim man is worth only one-twelfth of that paid for a Muslim man.
