Egypt: Homemade bomb placed near Coptic Christian church

Jan 29, 2016 8:52 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Father Paul

A makeshift bomb was found near a church in Egypt on January 22.  Father Paul of the Coptic Orthodox Church in Egypt found what he described as a “foreign object” next to the garbage bin outside of the Virgin Mary Church in Aswan.  He took it in to the authorities for analysis, and it was discovered to be a makeshift bomb.

Makeshift bombs have been found before in and around Christian churches in Egypt; sometimes they are not discovered in time.  Well before the Islamic State disseminated information on how to make and detonate homemade bombs, other jihadi groups in Egypt were doing the same.

    Aswan is a hot spot for tribal conflict between Nubians and Arabs and terroism like placing bombs by Arab tribes around churchs.

    I have been to this beautiful church which is right across from the Nile and the Nubian village of Jabal Tagog and prayed there. 🙂 I respect the Copts’ desire not to incite the defensive Muslim spirit. They have a very different situation than we do in the West: they have to live together as co-patriots.

      Stephanie most Muslims especially native ones get along fine with Copts same ethnic group it’s only Arabs from tribal backgrounds who came as migrants from Arabia who cause most of the terroism in Egypt.

      Despite higher income better living conditions in the west lets not forget racism in the west and arrogance. Things are fine in Egypt most of the time God bless Egypt and all EgyptIans.

      they have to live together as co-patriots.
      …………………

      They have to toady to their Muslim supremacist overlords–and that *still* doesn’t often spare the Christian Copts from Muslim violence.

    The West has replaced children with consumer products. Child rearing has become a costly time consuming hobby. The time may be coming when having enough children to support us will be the only retirement security we will have.
