John Eibner Biography, Age, Height, Wife, Net Worth and Family

In 2008, Eibner started a campaign called Save Iraqi Christians in order to draw attention to mass violence directed at Iraq’s Christian minority. He has traveled to Iraq many times to deliver supplies to Christian refugees, document cases of anti-Christian violence, and meet with local church leaders.

In 1992, the New Sudan Council of Churches invited Eibner to come to southern Sudan to observe the effect of the Sudanese civil war on Sudan’s Christian population. The atrocities Eibner witnessed there, including mass slaughter and slave raiding by government-supported militias, led him to describe the Sudanese government’s campaign against the south as “genocide” in an October 1992 article for Wall Street Journal Europe. According to author Richard Cockett, Eibner’s article marks the first use of the word “genocide” in connection with modern Sudan.

In 1990, Eibner joined Christian Solidarity International. During the Armenia-Azerbaijan War of 1992-1993, Eibner led CSI relief expeditions to CSI to Armenians in the blockaded territory of Nagorno-Karabakh, and to Azerbaijanis displaced from their homes in Nagorno-Karabakh.

From 1986 to 1990, Eibner worked for the Keston Institute in London, an organization that monitored and promoted religious freedom in the former communist countries of Eastern Europe.
