“On
Saturday, Tehran's Assyrian Society released a statement, denouncing
the Takfiri group’s abduction of the Assyrians in Syria as well as
the West’s silence on the matter. A
Tuesday report noted that ISIL militants had kidnapped at least 150
people from Assyrian Christian villages in northeastern Syria.
The abductees included women and the elderly. The Society’s
statement decried the development, referring to the ISIL as 'the US
and Israel’s pet dragon.'”
“It
regretted that the Western world 'finds the killing of an occupying
Israeli soldier to be sufficient excuse for supporting the fake and
hateful [Israeli] regime in its killing Gaza’s innocent children
and civilians.' The West, however, is observing these crimes today
'with sewn lips as if not believing that it has bred such a dragon
itself,' the statement noted. 'The question is what is this concocted
US-led coalition, which has itself led to the unlimited arming of
these criminals, currently doing?'”
“The
terrorist group has been committing horrific crimes in all regions
under its control in Iraq and Syria. Hundreds of Assyrians have
already abandoned their villages to avoid bloody clashes. Also on
Saturday, hundreds of Assyrians marched in the Lebanese capital
Beirut in solidarity with those of the community kidnapped by the
ISIL in Syria.”
