Media Blackout as 100,000 Christians Forcibly Starved, Exiled From Homeland | Facts Matter

Despite a near-total media blackout, 120,000 Armenian Orthodox Christians have been under blockade by their Muslim neighbors for pretty much the entirety of the year. For nine months, these Armenian Christians were being starved to death by a blockade that was imposed on them by the government of Azerbaijan.

The area where these Christians were blockaded was the Nagorno-Karabakh region (or, as the Armenians call it, the Artsakh region). This is where tens of thousands of families were trapped and starved, until finally, in September, they accepted exile from the homeland and fled across the mountains to escape persecution.

While those in the West might look at what’s happening in Armenia as being completely separate from the war currently raging in Israel, it’s really worth mentioning that that’s not how the Muslim nations see it. For many Muslim leaders, this is all part of a broader conflict between the forces of the West (specifically Christendom and Judaism) versus the Islamic forces of the Middle East.

The Crusader-Crescent war that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan mentioned in a recent speech about is a reference to the Christian crusaders versus the Crescent symbol of Islam. And he included what’s currently happening in Azerbaijan as just one example of that broader conflict—one battle in a larger war.
