Keep quiet about this! “Talk about extreme, militant Islamists and the atrocities that they have perpetrated globally might undercut the positive achievements that we Catholics have attained in our inter-religious dialogue with devout Muslims.” — Robert McManus, Roman Catholic Bishop of Worcester, Massachusetts, February 8, 2013. And no, it’s not cocktail hour.
“Twenty-Six Molotov Cocktail Bombs Discovered Next to A Church in Egypt,” by Corey Bailey for International Christian Concern, January 27 (thanks to Pamela Geller):
1/27/2014 Washington, D.C. (International Christian Concern)—The first month of 2014 has seen numerous “attacks” on churches and Christians in Egypt. Witnesses and sources in Egypt reported to International Christian Concern (ICC), that despite the fact the following attacks were thwarted, they added to the fear Christians in Egypt face on a regular basis.
On Friday, January 3, supporters of Muslim Brotherhood attacked an Evangelical Church in the Gesr El Suez area of Cairo. The mob gathered in front of the church on Ahmed Esmat Street and began to “pelt stones on the church and change slogans against Christians,” Mina Beshay, a Christian in this area, told ICC. Reports indicate that there was no security for the church building and that the attackers operated with impunity.
On Sunday, January 5, security forces in Suez disrupted a terrorist cell named, “Supporters of Jerusalem.” They arrested the members when they discovered a plot to attack a nearby church on the nigh of their Christmas celebrations. Christmas among many Christians in Egypt is celebrated on January 7.
On Monday evening, January 6, a bomb was found in the bathroom of the Three Saints Church in Beni Suef city. Police diffused the bomb, initially discovered by a church member. A few days later, on January 10, security forces “arrested a bearded person in possession of four hand grenades in a handbag next to the Church of two Saints,” Wissa Fawzy, a Christian in Alexandria told ICC.
On Friday, January 24, The civil defense forces and civil protection forces in Assiut Governorate found explosives inside a car parked behind the church of AL Malak. The church, which is located in AL Numies street,in Assiut city, was targeted, “to be exploded,” sources told ICC.
On Saturday, January 25, Security forces in Ismailia Security directorate found 26 Molotov Cocktails inside a bag next to the church of St. Bishoy in the area of Sheikh Zayed in Ismailia city. Witnesses say that the person in possession of the bag of explosives was sitting in a car next to the church and “he fled when he saw the policemen.”
Christians, a religious minority in Egypt, have lived in constant fear of attack. Christians have been kidnapped and their Churches bombed or raided on a regular basis.

THE ANTI-CHURCH AND THE DESTRUCTION OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH
The prophecy of Pope John Paul II : When Karol Cardinal Wojtyla, he elaborated this theme during a visit to the United States in 1976:
“We are now standing in the face of the GREATEST historical CONFRONTATION humanity has gone through. I do not think that wide circles of the American Society or wide circles of the Christian Community realize this fully. We are now facing the FINAL CONFRONTATION between the Church and the ANTI-CHURCH, of the Gospel versus the ANTI-GOSPEL. It is a trial which the Church must take up.”
Dear Bishop McManus, CALLING ALL BISHOPS TO TAKE UP THIS CALL! Please protect the flock, dear shepherd. Islam is the ANTI-CHURCH that is currently exterminating the CHURCH IN THE NEAR EAST!
Brian C. Hoff says
Did that Pope say who the anti-church is. He didnot say who the anti-church are. It can be very easy than unbeliver in God like Pat in UK who make all those video against Islam.
Champ says
Hmm, videos “against islam”? …hey that’s a good thing!

Your English is torturous to the eye and ear. Please use
your Native lingua . Your rape of the language prevents
any valid reasoning from being discerned. In short,
What the —- did you just say?
Jay Boo says
A Muslim tried to assassinate Pope John Paul II.
Followers of the Serpent of Satan Muhammad fear the truth about Muhammad and Islam.
Pope Benedict spoke truth Islam.
Jay Boo says
Islam contaminates all of humanity .
How ironic that Muslims should WASH before prayer (as if) it would actually make a difference.
I once knew a dogmatic Muslim named Asif and I mispronounced his name ‘AS IF’
This would be such a fitting name for Islam
‘AS IF’

Well, that’s the problem, isn’t it? Even in post-Morsi Egypt, police and security often do little to protect threatened Christians.

Don’t forget, it is UMAH-UMAH-UMAH.
While the “Loyal Officers” do not want a Shariah State,
they cannot be seen to fight on the side of the Infidel.
A real conundrum.
