Under [[Bashar al-Assad]] Christians were tolerated, but during the [[Syrian Civil War]] Christians were persuaded by the jihadist opposition. The "rebells", who are armed by [[Barack Hussein Obama]], are destroying churches and want to introduce the [[Sharia]]-law. The islamists are persuad Christians, Alawites and other non-muslims. After the fall of Assad, [[Al-Qaeda]] and the [[Muslim Brotherhood]] will came in power. This would worsen the situation.
