US Withdrawal From Syria Could Force Christian Minorities to Flee

US forces' withdrawal from northern Syria could negatively impact Christian communities living in the predominantly Kurdish region, Thomas Schmidinger, who wrote the book Rojava, wrote in The Region.

Armenians and Assyrians who live in border towns like Qamishli may be forced to flee if Turkey steps up its military operations into the region following the US exit.

The United States will abandon recently built observation posts on the Turkish-Syrian border, aimed in part at defusing tensions between Turkey and Syrian Kurdish rebels.

That's really the only solution for them -- to flee, to get out of that hellhole.

Perhaps it's time for a "Christian homeland" in the MidEast.
I'm thinking that Israel should annex the West Bank, expel all muslims from therein, and offer it to the remaining Christians scattered about in their own "diaspora" ...
