North Korea and Iran top list of worst persecutors of Christians (Jerusalem Post)
"North Korea, Iran and Saudi Arabia are the worst persecutors of Christians around the world, according to a ranking released Wednesday by a Christian mission agency.
In an annual assessment of the 50 worst state persecutors of Christians by California-based Open Doors USA, North Korea topped the list for the seventh year in a row. Iran moved up to the second position on Open Doors' World Watch List, bumping Saudi Arabia down from last year, to the third slot.
Open Doors USA noted that eight of the 10 worst persecutors have Islam as their dominant religion, while two - North Korea and Laos - are communist countries. Out of 50 countries on the list, 35 have Islamic governments.
Moeller said it was no surprise that North Korea topped the list. "There is no other country in the world where Christians are persecuted in such a horrible and systematic manner," he said, noting that three generations of a family are often imprisoned when one relative is incarcerated. "
