A press release from the Christian Copts of California:
Christian Copts of California: Even If It Leads to Cells of Radical Islamists in America, Justice Demands That Jersey City Police Search Every Clue to Find Murderers of Armanious Family
The Armanious family fled Luxor, Egypt to escape Islamist extremists and came to America where they could express their freedom of speech. It wasn’t far enough. They have been murdered. Is it religious motivated?
To the Copts, Egyptian Christians – an American community of several hundred thousand, this is old stuff … it’s why they fled Egypt. But here? In America? Are quiet and hidden Islamist extremist cells coming to life in America? These cells, comprised of U.S. citizens – nice guys next door – don’t share our love of the First Amendment: freedom of speech, freedom of religion.
Christian Copts of California will hold a candle light vigil on February 27, 5 to 7 PM at the Santa Monica, California pier (Ocean and Colorado) to rouse the Jersey City police to investigate fully every clue of the Armanious murder.
A large turnout of Coptic Christians from all of Southern California is expected.
