Proceeding contribution from Gregory Campbell (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 December 2008. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Christians in Iraq.
Christians in Iraq
The hon. Gentleman touches on an important point. Does he agree that an unfortunate by-product of the problems in Iraq and our debate today is that tolerance of Christians and other minorities in Iraq has been perceived as a perverse insistence on western values? Instead of demanding democracy in Iraq, it seems that some people are determined to supplant it by ensuring that it is perceived as being an imposition of western values, when it is far from that.
