The article describes the course of the Christian minority in modern Iraq from their appearance to the modern time. The writer argues that despite war, emigration and sanctions, the presence of Christianity in Iraq is a witness to the creative and spiritual power of Oriental Christianity in the Middle East and an important source for the religious and political renewal of the region.
