Save the Christians in Afghanistan

Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government & Parliament to take action for Christians in Afghanistan. The withdrawal of troops and the advancements of Taliban forces is a threat to every Christian in the land. Certain persecution and the death of thousands is an impending reality in Afghanistan.
We want the Government & Parliament to take responsibility for their military action in Afghanistan. Their withdrawal has made the life and stability of Christians even more uncertain, due to the majority of the Taliban wanting to implicate Sharia-laws.
We pledge the government to talk to their NATO-allies to establish safe-havens (regions) for Christians in Afghanistan, free from persecution and/or take on refugees that are Christians to save their lives.
