8:03 pm
should die. the findings of this report a little bit more earlier i was joined by david curry president and ceo of open doors usa. since i create is number one on this list i first ask david what's going on than any system difficult to practice christianity. well there are different reasons why countries show up on our world watch list of countries with very difficult. that freedom of faith to be a christian or korea suffers under what is a very strange combination which is a former college and communists will crash and mix with a theocracy where the leaders for now three generations believe that their god to any ideology or theology which would question our challenge that they're putting down with force and can you hear a lot about that. that forster that impression off on christians were directed to christians because of the secrecy. because that day control is so total. my keys and generally it is so hard to obtain information on
8:04 pm
the people of that north korea. what were their sources and how are you an email able to figure out sort of the beliefs of the population that so heavily guarded by its government open to account for sixty years has supported persecutions where they may be that so we get our data on the local level we work with folks who are believers in these countries. we get our responses from them on right on the ground level so that's how we we get this data together and we measured on a number of factors. violence is one of them but also pressure and squeezy. both of them in more and more subtle ways perhaps i was not what we're forcing happened in serie of course we know that the country is now in braille venice of a warrant has been for over two years. i know that the numbers that that we're seeing because we know that it's it's an extraordinarily high. i'm just a reflection of certain how many people are dying as a whole minutes. and actually departed a good time at
8:05 pm
persecution of christians that's right it would mean there is a little larger in humanitarian crisis going on what we are using is what we use numbers of martyrdom for faith are only numbers that we can identify. there are just the tip of the iceberg of up from media outlets and other sources. the folks who've been martyred within syria. what happened in serious doubt as to who were clearly there's a lot of damage society at large. but there are also efforts from the islamic extremist groups to target christian areas where historically christians have a saddle and christian churches soft targets in order to raise response from some of the larger population and i was with my next question which is that i'm you know were seen at this conflict. really take over the region in both syria and iraq which are both obviously on the list and the conflict can really see it happen more so between muslim factions the sunnis and shiites on increased incentive by and
8:06 pm
large sort of calm and be out of the conflict or at least i can cite the conflict. so how how is it that you think that christians are ultimately the ones being heard it here both the cases of babies scapegoat it the islamic extremist. he'll be theologically or clinic for political motivations that that christians are on a threat to their society the lady eve. sharia law being played out so there's a number of factors in every country is different in iraq um you know. the government here seems to be unable or unwilling to support saw this what we would call soft targets of christian churches he had a bomb aimed just at christmas of two churches where people were going to worship at the christmas holiday so it varies from from country to country and community area. absolutely i mean also. you'll also see iraq and afghanistan o'connell s and these are two countries the united states has most recently gone
8:07 pm
to war with. i know you i can only be doing a survey for twelve years but how would you describe the trend regarding the persecution of christians did you see that increase that increases the first year you didn't already love me. we've seen a doubling of the day of the martyrs that we can identify just from last year some of those numbers allow a large portion of the largest portion isn't this union contract. but there's also other countries like nine teary and somalia and some of the swear there's the targeting of cushions. so we feel like it's getting worse. nine of the top ten on our world watch the stars islamic extremist factions and or government. thirty six of the top fifty so that's the main driver this year it's not always been that way but it's certainly a trend that we're concerned about chart and a non scientists from people being i'm targeted and murdered. what obstacles are christians facing and practicing their religion and just generally well that there is a day
8:08 pm
the issue here though in many of the countries where where they are operating as a minority and there's a lot of soulful pressure from families to conform in many countries on the world watched as it is illegal to convert to christianity if you so choose. when one is a free marketplace of ideas for people of the opportunity to study and choose what they think for themselves. eric and when you take a look at the numbers more generally any of these emails between two thousand and two thousand thirteen there is a huge jump but happy seen the numbers go down at all in those years were having just been consistently getting higher and higher and higher. what we're doing is drinking the countries that they are today. and so we've seen fluctuations in exchange when we first started we are dealing with a communist oppression. now we're dealing with islamic extremists and so it's different in any numbers to changes as time has changed. it was all very interesting and we will certainly follow. i hear statistics going for a thank you so much david curry
