Berri Wants Arab Ministerial Meeting in Mosul To Defend Christians

03.jpgParliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Thursday urged Arab and Muslim leaders to denounce attacks targeting Christians in Iraq.

“Any harm inflicted on any Arab country would target all other Arab states,” Berri said in his appeal.
He also urged the Arab league to launch a “speedy initiative to salvage the people of Iraq, their civilization and pluralist nature.”

Berri called the Arab league to sponsor a meeting in the Iraqi town of Mosul attended by Arab Waqf (endowment) ministers” to show solidarity with Iraqi Christians.
