EWTN’s Naturalist Narrative on Iraqi Christians Omits Christ the King
EWTN News (February 1, 2026) reports on Iraqi Christians’ fears regarding potential ISIS resurgence near the Iraq-Syria border. The article quotes “Bishop” Bashar Matti Warda of Erbil emphasizing human dialogue and “shared life” as solutions while lamenting past Christian emigration. The report frames the conflict through geopolitical lenses without reference to the Catholic duty of nations to recognize the Social Kingship of Christ.
