Try telling that to these bog brained murphys
You guys' priority should be to stop people saying 'happy holidays'. Once that's achieved, you can focus your attention on the plight of Syrian and Iraqi Christians.
On the point about the media attention, given that the OP admits we all know about this issue, I'm wondering if it is actually that sparse. The other point to note is that there are communities in this conflict who have suffered more than Christians (if I was in northern Iraq, I would rather be a Christian than a Yazidi), so perhaps they're getting more of the media attention?
I'm also struggling a little to see this in quite the breadth that the OP article implies. Beyond the Syria/Iraq war, I can't think of any Middle Eastern territories where Christians are routinely persecuted.
This is a serious issue, particularly in Iraq (I'm mostly thinking of those Christians who used to live in Mosul), but it's one of many serious issues in the region, and should not be exaggerated.
