About this audiobook

"Everywhere militants were blowing up Christians, their churches, their shops. They threatened them with kidnapping. They promised to take their children. The message to these 'infidels': You have no place in Iraq. Pay a penalty to stay, leave, or be killed."

Sweeping from Syria into Iraq, Islamic State fighters (ISIS) have been brutalizing and annihilating Christians. How? Why? Where did the terrorists come from, and what can be done to stop them? For more than a decade, journalist Mindy Belz has reported on the ground from the Middle East, giving her unparalleled access to the story no one wants to believe. In They Say We Are Infidels, she brings the stark reality of this escalating genocide to light, tracking the stories of real-life Christians who refuse to abandon their faith—even in the face of losing everything, including their lives.

    I gave up on this after reading about a third of it. The title is misleading--the author is not on the run from ISIS or any terrorists in the Middle East. She is a journalist traveling around visiting people in the region. She has attempted to weave these people's stories into what seems like a decade or more of historical research. It doesn't work--I predict that most readers either want a biographical account or a textbook.

    The facts and figures and wealth of data was overwhelming. Due to the presence of the historical data the stories were a bit lost in the middle. They were told in a disjointed manner and with insufficient detail to really understand the lives of the people involved or to relate to them. The stories jumped around and there were so many of them that it created confusion and chaos in my mind. The book was also very long which made for a daunting prospect. Maybe some more advanced scholars will enjoy it--I'm going to give my tired brain a rest!
