ISIS entered a major Christian church in Iraq,

called the St. George Monastery, and

destroyed the statues of the Virgin Mary and the Baby Jesus. They also

took out the crosses and defaced a beautiful statue of St. George

destroying the dragon. They took out one of the crosses from the top of

the sanctuary and replaced it with the black flag of ISIS. They did the same sort of iconoclastic

destruction in St. St. Sawa Church in Tel-

Jadiya, Syria, which was sacked by ISIS but is now under Assyrian Christian

control
