“Robert Spencer incarnates intellectual courage when, all over the world, governments, intellectuals, churches, universities and media crawl under a hegemonic Universal Caliphate’s New Order. His achievement in the battle for the survival of free speech and dignity of man will remain as a fundamental monument to the love of, and the self-sacrifice for, liberty.”

One could rewrite that headline.
What if it read, 'Egyptian Arab Muslims shoot Gazan Arab Muslims'?
(It's a safe bet that the so-called 'Palestinians' trying to flee from Gaza, are Muslims - there are only 3000 Arabised Christians left in Gaza).
In fact, let's amuse ourselves rewording the whole article so that it reflects the unpleasant religio-political reality more closely.
'Egyptian Arab Muslim border guards have opened fire on Arab Muslims from Gaza who breached the border to escape Israel's assault on the Hamas jihad bosses in the Gaza Strip.
'An Egyptian Arab Muslim security official said there were at least five breaches along the nine-mile border and hundreds of Gazan Arab Muslim residents were pouring in.
'At least 300 Egyptian Arab Muslim border guards have been rushed to the area to reseal the border, the official added on condition on anonymity because he was not authorised to speak to the press.
'A resident of the Gaza Strip side of the border, Fida Kishta, said that Egyptian Arab Muslim border guards opened fire to drive back the Gazan Muslims.
'Residents have also commandeered a bulldozer to open new breaches.
'Gazan Arab Muslims reported several people were wounded by the gunfire....".
HERE ENDS THE REWRITE.
If one includes the substantives - 'Muslim' and 'Arab' for both groups, one sees that Arab Muslims from Egypt are quite happy to fire upon, and kill, their 'brother' Arab Muslims from Gaza - many of whom, if one took a good look at their pedigrees, probably came to Gaza from Egypt in the first place, one or two or three generations ago.
