Another Coptic Christian soldier has been killed at his army unit under mysterious circumstances, according to MCN.
On Sunday, August 23, Baha Saeed Karam, 22, was killed by four bullets at the headquarters of his battalion in Marsa Matruh. Although transferred to a hospital in Alexandria, he died upon arrival.
According to Baha’s brother, Cyril, the Coptic soldier had told him previously that he had gotten into some quarrels with other soldiers in his unit and that they had threatened him with death.
Baha is not the first Coptic Christian soldier in Egypt to be killed while stationed with his unit under “mysterious” circumstances. Two months earlier, another young Coptic soldier—the only Christian in his unit—was found dead, shot and bludgeoned on the head.
The army claimed he had committed suicide.

When will they stop being dhimmis?

Copts make up less than 10% of the population in Egypt, surrounded by a mass of Mohammedans who are poised to mass-murder them were they to ‘get out of line’, per Shari’ah.
So, generally, I’d say that Copts in Egypt will “stop being dhimmis” when they get tired of living.

Actually, I thought is was a volunteer army, but apparently that’s not true, so take back the comment.

“I” take back the comment

Thanks for replying, KrazyKafir.

Actually in DNA studies, the Coptic Christians are the closest to the ancient Egyptians.

This recalls when Sgt. Asan Akbar rolled a hand grenade into the command tent in Kuwait, killing and maiming the Infidel officers above him as they prepared to go into battle against the Iraq Army. And you gotta admit, Sgt. Asan had the surname for the job.

Actually were not the followers of islam labeled infidels long before islam existed?
mortimer says
A dirty KAFIR should know his place.
How dare he talk back or disagree with a supreme Muslims overlord!
It’s blasphemy! No Muslim is ever given a death sentence for murdering a dirty KAFIR, but a kafir is executed for merely TALKING BACK to Muslim.
Does anyone think Western countries will be exempt from this behavior for long?

Does anyone think Western countries will be exempt from this behavior for long?
Yes. By my informal count, somewhere around 100% of the news entertainer community in the West believes that we will be indefinitely exempt.
At least that is what they imply publicly. It could be that 1% or so are starting to have a niggling doubt.

To all sons of the whores (Mothers of the believers) ( أولاد أمهات المؤمنين)and to the government of Egypt under F. Sissy; Egypt will never see peace or any prosperity until you stop persecuting Egypt’s Copts the original and the right owners of our blessed land …

Egypt: Christian soldier murdered in his army unit
…………………
This poor man. More proof that in Dar-al-Islam serving your country means nothing compared to being a member of the “Ummah”.
zafer says
Many years ago 50% of the christians in the turkish army “died”…
gravenimage says
Very true, zafer. The Ottoman Pasha decided to wipe out the Janissaries in 1826, in an event grotesquely known as the “Auspicious Incident”. The last of the Janissaries were then put to death by decapitation in what was later called the Blood Tower in Thessaloniki.
Draki says
Very sad. Sounds like the muslims in the unit did a code red.
Rob says
How many millennia will it take for us to realise that Islam and the civilised world cannot coexist?
Nothing less that the planned demigration of Muslims from the West will fix the problem.
Perhaps when the demigration process is well advanced will Muslims realise that this is a price tag for the rapes and butchery and change their ways.
The West has made the presumption that Islam wants to move to the West to be secular, law abiding and inclusive. This was just wishful thinking.

Obama’s new and improved Muslim Brotherhood didn’t pan out the way Obama claimed. In the meantime, how many Christians have died as a result of the Obama-Hillary / MO-Bro Axis of Evil?
The talking heads at BBC and NPR are still more worried about the jailed terrorist Muslim Brotherhood Al Jezeera collaborators who posed as ‘journalists’ than Christians and keep reminding listeners that the Al Jezeera MB collaborators are ‘journalists’ as if the stink of Islam might go away.
