Christians being persecuted in Iraq

In Iraq, Christians are being persecuted because of their practice of Christianity. They have been given the opportunity to convert to Islam or be killed. This relates to the First Ammendment because it states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise." This has been recently taking place and people believe the U.S. has been ignoring the downstream persecution of these Christians. Only about 100,000 self- identified Christians have been able to flee from their brutal oppressors.
