Fears for christians in the Middle east after the changes there in the 'Arab Spring'

The Archbishop of Canterbury has said that he fears for Christians in the Middle East after months of unrest during and after the Arab Spring. Speaking to BBC Radio 4's World At One programme, Dr Rowan Williams said there was a "haemorrhaging of Christian populations from the Holy Land" because of violent extremism, and in Bethlehem they were now a "marginalised minority".
He said it was "a very anxious time for Christian communities".
