Christians in Syria can forget about their human rights if William Hague arms the rebels<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The UK and its allies would be able to send arms to Syrian opposition groups straightaway if they felt such a move was justified, William Hague has said<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

An existing EU embargo was lifted on Monday. \u00a0MPs from all parties have warned about weapons falling into extremists’ hands.<\/p>\n

William Hague lobbied European leaders to lift the embargo.<\/p>\n

Sending arms to be sent to the Syrian rebels will mean systematic persecution of Syria’s 10% Christian minority, who had relative safety under President Assad’s Alawite regime..<\/p>\n

It will also mean weapons falling into the hands of Muslim\u00a0extremists attached to\u00a0Al-Qaeda.<\/p>\n

Finally, it will mean equipping enemies of Israel who make President Assad look like a Zionist in comparison.<\/p>\n

Mr Hague knows all this, so why is he so intent on arming the rebels?<\/p>\n

Christians are already under attack. \u00a0The Fars News Agency from Iran reports<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(27th May 2013):<\/p>\n

The armed rebels affiliated to the Free Syrian Army (FSA) raided the Christian-populated al-Duvair village in Reef (outskirts of) Homs near the border with Lebanon today and massacred all its civilian residents, including women and children.<\/p>\n

The Syrian army, however, intervened and killed tens of terrorists during heavy clashes which are still going on in al-Duvair village.<\/p>\n

The armed rebels’ attack and crimes in al-Duvair village came after they\u00a0sustained heavy defeats in al-Qusseir city which has almost been set free by the Syrian army except for a few districts.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Truth is often hard to come by in that part of the world (it isn’t that easy here) but we have reported\u00a0before on attacks by Syrian rebels on Christians.<\/p>\n

Even the BBC’s website is admitting that the Syrian opposition is riven with internal disputes and extremism. \u00a0See:<\/p>\n

All across the Middle East, in countries affected by the ‘Arab Spring’, Christians are coming under persecution. \u00a0Our Government’s intervention in Iraq resulted in a hard-line Islamic takeover \u00a0and the eviction or extermination of Christians, yet the Foreign Secretary is intent on ploughing the same furrow in Syria. \u00a0The question must be asked: Does William Hague hate Christians?<\/p>\n
