We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to protect the Christians of Iraq.Further information:
Iraqi Christians are being targeted for violence by both Sunni and Shia insurgents and are having to flee to safety, losing everything they had or knew. We want the Prime Minster to ensure that Iraqi Christians are not overlooked in this conflict, are acknowledged as valued Iraqi citizens and are given aid and refuge. In particular, we want the Prime Minister to discuss with other coalition countries the position of Iraqi Christians, look at providing a safe haven in northern Iraq, grant additional aid for the Iraqi Christian refugees both in Iraq and surrounding countries and grant asylum in coalition countries where necessary. The Christians should also be consulted as part of any reconciliation process and provided for in any future plans in Iraq.There are 2257 signatures at the time of posting. Do add your name if you are eligible (you must be a British Citizen or resident to sign the petition.)

This petition will fall on very deaf ears. As he repeatedly said in the BBC interview, Blair has absolutely no responsibility for the utter disaster that is Iraq. He illegally invaded the country and destroyed its honour, infrastructure, army and police force. Anything happening thereafter comes from nasty people who wont sit down and accept being being invaded.
We used to have institutions for people who have lost all contact with reality, but they've been closed down to make way for luxury flats. One can only suggest marking off the last days of his office on a calendar and waiting...
