Syria’s Christians Are Still Dying
The new president of Syria — former ISIS member Ahmed al‑Sharaa — publicly promised to protect Christians and other minorities after taking office in January. That’s not going well.
On Sunday, between 20–25 Christians were killed and dozens more wounded in what’s being called the first major ISIS-style suicide bombing of a church since the fall of the Assad government.
Back in March, after 900 Alawite civilians were massacred in coastal clashes between Assad loyalists and transitional forces, President al‑Sharaa said this:
“We announce the formation of a fact-finding committee regarding the events on the coast and form a higher committee.”
And…? More deaths. More promises. Still “fact-finding.”
This isn’t just about failure — it’s about how fragile transitional governments are when they inherit power vacuums, warlord fiefdoms, and decades of sectarian wounds. Regime change may be complete on paper — but order hasn’t followed.
When will we learn?
