In Iraq, some 3,000 Christians have fled the city of Mosul over the past week after Christians became the target of a campaign of killings and kidnappings. Over the past month, police reported finding the bullet-riddled bodies of seven Christians. On Sunday, a Christian music store owner was shot dead in his store. The Iraqi government has ordered nearly 1,000 Iraqi police to patrol Mosul, where Christians have lived for the past 1,800 years.
