A cross has been ripped down from a Greek Orthodox Church in a part of Syria controlled by U.S.-backed militants.
The St. Sergius and Bacchus Greek Orthodox Church in the city of Tabqa near Raqqa had radical Islamists remove the cross after Friday’s Islamic prayers in a local mosque.
Although commentators refer to this action as part of an anti-France protest, it clearly shows that it is anti-Christian as a Greek Orthodox Church was targeted in a city controlled by the Kurdish-led and U.S.-backed Syrian Democratic Forces.
The Tabqa Regional government, acting independently from the legitimate government in Damascus, restored the cross on the church after it was originally destroyed by ISIS some years ago.
The restoration of the cross was to encourage Christians refugees to return to the city.
According to Nadine Maenza, President of Patriot Voices, ISIS and Turkey are encouraging a small group to commit these horrible acts.
Prior to the ISIS invasion and destruction of the city, it was home to a minority of Christians belonging to the Greek Orthodox Church, the Assyrian Church of the East, Syriac Orthodox Church, Chaldean Catholic and Syriac Catholic Church, and various Protestants.

Well that’s not going to sit well with DJT.
Christianity is being attacked all over the world. The USA is no exception.
So how much you wanna bet that BLM is actually an Islamic insurgency.

You haven’t been following the war in Syria. The groups the US supports in Syria, (both overtly and covertly) are no friends of Christians there.
Guess who has been defending Christians there?
Syria’s SAA, Hezbollah, and Russia. You may not like hearing it, but if you have followed the Syrian War for 8 years, you would be aware of this unpleasant fact.
“You may not like hearing it”
