Women, children, the elderly, and with their priests and nuns, marching to try to find shelter after being forced to leave their homes, many even in pajamas and barefoot. This new horror scenario that exists today in northern Iraq, where the militia of the Islamic State (Isis), as modern Huns continue their advance that neither the army nor the Kurdish Peshmerga forces seem more able to stop. An "appeal to the international community" has been addressed by the Pope to "put an end to the humanitarian tragedy taking place and why it takes action to protect threatened by violence and ensure support to displaced people."

But, according to the New York Times, even President Barack Obama is considering air strikes on militant jihadists. "There will be no American troops in Iraq. Any military action will be limited in its goals, "he explained, however, the White House spokesman, Josh Earnest, reiterating Obama's position that" there is no military solution to the Iraq crisis: what is needed is a solution politics. "
"Plunder, ravage, steal in houses, not even those churches" as Monsignor Yousif Thoma, Chaldean archbishop of Kirkuk and Sulaymaniyah, the Mishnah describes the drama of Qaraqosh, the Christian town of northern Iraq occupied between yesterday and today by Sunni insurgents along with three other centers. "All 50,000 residents were forced to leave the city - says Monsignor Thoma - and are reaching walk Erbil or Sulaymaniyah (in the region of Kurdistan)." Other sources speak of a flood of 100,000 refugees in desperate march, counting those who had found refuge in Qaraqosh and nearby villages after being forced to flee Mosul was conquered by the Islamic State in June.
