Islamic State released 19 Assyrian Christian captives in Syria on Sunday after processing them through a sharia court, a monitoring group which tracks the conflict said.

More than 200 Assyrians remain in Islamic State hands, said the British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, captives from an Islamic State advance last month that overran more than a dozen villages inhabited by the ancient Christian minority near Hasaka, a northeastern city mainly held by the Kurds.

Islamic State has not claimed any of the abductions. The Observatory tracks the conflict using a network of sources on all sides of the civil war which spiraled as security forces used violence to suppress protests against President Bashar al-Assad’s rule in 2011.

It said 17 men and two women were released.

Islamic State has killed members of religious minorities and Sunni Muslims who do not swear allegiance to its self-declared “caliphate”. The group last month released a video showing its members beheading 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians in Libya.

    What about the other christians??? Where is the world? How come that we are not seeing any reaction from anyone about the kidnapping. What did the christian did wrong in the middle east to deserve this kind of treatment ?

      If you are an example of the Christians in the middle east then you deserve kidnapping. Does Tk mean you are technically knocked out. Rhetorical question sweetie

          “Christianity persecuted, tortured, and burned. Like a hound it tracked the very scent of heresy. It kindled wars, and nursed furious hatreds and ambitions… Man, far from being freed from his natural passions, was plunged into artificial ones quite as violent and much more disappointing.”
          George Santayana

          “You find as you look around the world that every single bit of progress in humane feeling, every improvement in the criminal law, every step toward the diminution of war, every step toward better treatment of the colored races, or every mitigation of slavery, every moral progress that there has been in the world, has been consistently opposed by the organized churches of the world. I say quite deliberately that the Christian religion, as organized in its churches, has been and still is the principal enemy of moral progress in the world.”

      At first I couldn’t understand what was going on, after watching what happened to Christians in Iraq and now Syria, i can clearly say “they” want to empty the Middle East from it’s Christians.

        And at last you still don’t understand. What you fail to understand is that you will never understand.

      Looks like we have extremism in all religions. The world should be screaming out no just for the Christens, but all innocent people caught up in this BS conflict. Did the church not teach you to show compassion to all humans, or just Christians. Your comment is floored TK.
