CBN – It is Genocide

Presiding Bishop Anba Angaelos of the Coptic Orthodox Church in the United Kingdom is concerned about the consequences if the White House only designates what’s happening to the Yazidi people as genocide and ignores Christians or other groups.

He wants American legislators to think beyond laws.
