Egypt: Another Christian man murdered in cold blood “only because he was a Copt”

Feb 19, 2015 6:31 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

gunIn the early morning hours of Saturday, January 31, masked gunmen stormed the home of Nabil Mahrus, a 50-year-old Coptic Christian civil servant residing in al-Arish, the largest Sinai city.

In front of his family, they went up to the Coptic man and shot him several times in the head, killing him—but only after they had plundered the family and home.  According to the slain man’s wife, her husband was murdered “only because he was a Copt [i.e., Christian].”

She pointed out that the masked intruders first robbed everything in sight—including the money in his pockets, the jewelry she was wearing, her handbag, cell phones, and even a Bible.

Then, after plundering everything in sight, and for no other reason than to sate their hate, they shot the Christian in the head, leaving his wife widowed and his children orphaned.

    The United States is an embarassment for not taking a stand against these heinous crimes. We sat by idolly in the 30’s and 40’s at the extermination of the Jews. Today we sit on our hands while Radical Extermist attempt to exterminate the Christians in the name if Islam. The free world needs to take a stand against these heinous crimes that violate human rights. This is a world problem and a unification between all nations needs to happen. If we fail to take a proactive stance it will be too late. A sad state of affairs is all I can say.

      Ken Wortman,

      “This is a world problem and a unification between all nations needs to happen. If we fail to take a proactive stance it will be too late. A sad state of affairs is all I can say.”

      One of the main reasons I keep coming to this site, is comments like yours, above.

      How so true, filled with insight and moving it is for anyone who still has a fully functioning human brain!

      “America is completely taken over by the DEVIL and is Controlled by the DEVIL and things will only get from bad to worse in the coming years and decades.”

      Justin, do you know what? I’m sure some reading the above quoted statement would dismiss it as exaggerating, resenting and/or jealous.

      Meanwhile that statement is so true, precise and the reality may even be worse!

      By the way I don’t give it “decades”.

      I find that comparison to be unfair on the grounds that in the 1930’s and 40’s no US president said that nazism was an ideology of peace, or that the United States were entering WWII to fight only against those who were twisting the peaceful ideology of nazism, or that nazism has been woven into the fabric of the US since its founding.

    Oh, the peaceful Muslims at work!! What happened to billions of Muslims who do not subscribe to this “extremist ideology”(it is not Islam our POTUS says), where are they?? Looks like you find them all over as part of that mythical”tiny minority” of extremists(not Islamists or Muslims)! All false narrative promoted by Islamic apologists trying to fool US citizens!!

    Why shoot someone several times in the head? Surely, he’d
    be dead after the first shot to that part of the body. These demons
    want to extend the sexually perverse pleasure they derive from
    the extinguishing of human life and the desecration of innocent flesh,
    so as to serve their master Satan. They’ll join him one day. Not like
    their poor victim who’ll be in Heaven.

    Well they didn’t rape her or the kid so they were merciful moderates…. because that comes later when they have a choice to become muslim or the above!

    For every heinous act committed by Muslims in the way of their prophet and by command of Allah, they also contribute to the demise of Islam.

    Didn’t Mahommad not only kill his enemies but stole their property. He was a murderer and a bandit. They were just “libeating” what was supposedly theirs because they are muslims.

    im for loving my enemies and turn the other cheek but when muslims keep shooting Christians just for believing jesus Christ is God this is a problem these Christians in the middle east should say enough if our goverments wont protect us its time to take up arms against these monsters and protect our churches women and children

    I for one, like all of you, am fed up with these jackals from hell.

    I am just preparing a special video that I will upload to Youtube. The images of these atrocities have to keep being documented until America and the West realizes what is happening.

    As a Christian, I feel that if we keep silent on this matter, they will start attacking us where we work, sleep and play. Time we annihilate Islam from the Earth.
    Sadly, this falls right in the lap of the globalists’ New Islamic World Order.

    The threat is clear, they have even said it, us Christians are their #1 Enemy. So, what are we waiting for?

    Please check out this video rant and solution to the ISLAMIC problem…

    Muslims have a habit of (mis)quoting the Quran. For example I hear many times on radio that the Quran says “to kill one human being is the same as killing the whole of mankind” as an indication that islam condemns all killing and is hence peaceful. What they fail to say is that this statement is part of a verse which says, only, that this is what the Jews were told by god.It does not go on to say or imply that the same rule applies to muslims.
