Stop deporting Iraqi christians

The Issue

Sweden are deporting Iraqi Christians and people from other exposed and vulnerable people's groups against advice from UNHCR (The UN Refugee Agency) and other organizations. Let's show them we're not tolerating this.

Iraq is currently not a very safe place and the UNHCR have recommended countries not to deport people by force to Iraqi cities Baghdad, Masul and Kirkuk. After terrorist group Islamic State of Iraq earlier making a statement saying "All Christian centres, organisations and institutions, leaders and followers, are legitimate targets for the mujahedeen (holy
warriors) wherever they can reach them," and attacking a church in Baghdad taking more than 100 people hostage, ending with 58 people dead, Iraq is not safe in any way for Christians to return to. Still they are being deported!

We cannot tolerate this!
