[Magdalen] Christians in Iraq

[Jay Weigel]

Not a hoax, Jim, but not proven. Status is "undetermined". It behooves us
to pray for *all* our brothers and sisters who are in the path of DAESH (I
refuse to use the term "ISIS" and prefer DAESH which is in use in much of
Europe and is also a very insulting expression in Arabic), whatever their
religion.
