Cardinal Sako has been living in self-imposed exile since July, after the Iraqi president revoked civil recognition of the patriarch as head of the Chaldean Church
The Iraqi government not "accepting" Patriarch Sako is reminiscent of the culture of American "sovereign citizens" who do not "accept" federal income tax law; I hear your opinion, but that's not a decision you have any authority to make.
Is the Iraq government trying to create a “Patriotic Chaldean Church”?
That's sorta what it sounds like to me. No bueno!
