Will the Islamophobia never end?
“Egypt church application triggers attack,” World Watch Monitor, April 19, 2018:
…The government has legalised 219 churches and church-affiliated buildings this year, but 3,511 others remain on the waiting list.
The churches were built without licence as it was “next to impossible” to build or restore a church until the Law for Building and Restoring Churches was passed in September 2016. The demand for official church buildings is a response to growing congregations and the declining condition of existing churches, according to Coptic news site Watani….
Most recently, the Virgin Mary and Pope Kyrillos VI Church in Beni Meinin, Beni Suef Governorate, was attacked on 14 April, the same day as a visit by the Building Authority Committee who came to inspect the building in preparation for legalising its church status.
The church’s 700 Coptic members, who had used the building as a church for 10 years, had also applied for the building to be expanded.
Local sources told World Watch Monitor that Muslim villagers had heard about the morning inspection and then, at about 7pm, attacked the church and some nearby Coptic homes.
“Many Muslim young men from our village and villages nearby gathered in front of the church building and began pelting it with stones and bricks while shouting ‘Allahu akbar’ [Allah is the greatest], and ‘We don’t want a church in our village’,” said Medhat Halim, a resident in the village.
“Windows and a door were smashed and some of the church’s contents destroyed. They also pelted Coptic-owned houses next to the building. Five Copts received minor injuries.”
Security forces arrived at the village an hour later and arrested 20 Muslims and 12 Christians. Some were released the next morning but 11 Muslims and nine Christians were later charged with “gathering” (illegal for more than 10 people under 2016’s demonstration laws) and the possession of unlicensed arms, and were jailed for four days, later extended to 15 days.
More Coptic homes were attacked two days later (16 April), despite the presence of security forces in the village.
“Some Muslim villagers had a meeting in one of the mosques. They incited people against us. After the meeting they set fire to a wood store owned by my brother, and four other houses,” said Christian resident Magdy Nady.
Police arrested five Christians as they tried to extinguish the fires.
“The police are conniving with Muslim villagers. We were attacked, our homes destroyed, some of us arrested – where are our rights? The Muslim villagers are now pressing us to reconcile under the condition that we close the church. We refuse to do that,” Nady said.
“There is a situation of fear and panic among the Christians and there isn’t any protection for us.”
By the time the Coptic homes were attacked, police had arrested 16 Copts in connection with the unrest. Many other young Copts left the village for fear of being arrested. Nady said the police made the arrests to force the Copts into a Customary Reconciliation Session (formal village meeting) where, in exchange for an end to the rioting, the Copts would give up their plans for a licenced church.

where is the outrage from folks; Christians are being persecuted worldwide by ignorant, illiterate muslims filled with hate, which is all islam teaches. The police are in bed with the muslims so Christians don’t have a chance of protection. There is nothing fair when dealing with islam, they want domination and do not give a damn about humanity, oh so stupid.
Lydia Church says
Yes, more “tolerance” on their part, oh, what a peaceful religion!
Gimme a break!
And they *arrested* some Christians for putting out fires?
It’s like “huh?”

From the article – “Many Muslim young men from our village and villages nearby gathered in front of the church building and began pelting it with stones and bricks while shouting ‘Allahu akbar’ [Allah is the greatest], and ‘We don’t want a church in our village’,” said Medhat Halim, a resident in the village.”
See that? “MANY Muslim young men from our village and villages nearby..”.
NOT some ‘tinyminorityofextremists’. NO; MANY. Mohammed’s willing executioners. Allah’s enforcers. The ummah is FULL of them. EVERY mohammedan ‘community’ is full of them, just itching to Go Jihad on a defenceless target the moment they get the chance.
Michael says
Let the Israelis use these vermin as target practice.

” … EVERY mohammedan ‘community’ is full of them, just itching to Go Jihad on a defenceless target the moment they get the chance….”
islamomaniacs they are, hating what the allah god of islam (unknowable; the best of all deceiveres) hates.
the allah god has no intention to reconcile; it is impotent and cannot do anything constructive and helpful, having no compassion

So true, DDA.

Some 20 yrs ago i walked on the road to Karnak in Luxor. There was a church service going on, singing etc. Out of curiosity i stopped and had a look at the people inside the church, peacefully praying and singing. Suddenly from the other side of the street there was a loud ‘allahu akbar’ shouting, like from the mosques. But there were only offices there. Then i saw megaphones hanging from the walls. As soon as the church service started muslims would put on the megaphones to disturbe the church service and pester the Christians. Disgusting. This is going on everywhere in Egypt and the muslim world. I’ve come to the conclusion that islam is not a religion but an ideology based on hate, greed, fascism, imperialism etc. There is nothing holy in islam. Believing in islam is near to a psychosis!
Infidel says
This they do in India too.. Muslims make it their business to target Hindu holy places. They seek out lands exactly opposite to big Hindu temples and build mosques there. And then the disturbance starts whenever Hindus start to pray peacefully. And not to mention the violence and riots that these creatures do along with these disturbances.

No surprise, Boris and Infidel.

From the article: passages that make it quite, quite clear that ordinary Egyptian officialdom and ‘law enforcement’ are solidly on the side of the murderous rioting arson-sowing mohammedans and don’t give a damn about the Christians.
“**Police arrested five Christians as they tried to extinguish the fires** (nota bene – in Islamic Egypt, if a mohamedan sets fire to your Christian home or church, the so-called ‘police’ will stand by and watch it burn, refuse to arrest the arsonist, and **arrest YOU instead, especially if – oh, shock horrors, the evils! you … try to put out the fire!!!! – Islam is injustice on stilts, institutionalised sadistic bullying to the nth degree – the Nazis, even N Korea are amateurs compared to the mind-bending savagery and wickedness of Islam – dda).
“The police are conniving with Muslim villagers.
Nota bene – dda.
“We were attacked, our homes destroyed, some of us arrested – where are our rights? The Muslim villagers are now pressing us to reconcile under the condition that we close the church. We refuse to do that,” Nady said.
“There is a situation of fear and panic among the Christians and there isn’t any protection for us.”
Of course there’s no protection. And all al-Sisi’s fine words that he’s been spouting, and that some Coptic chrisians have been silly enough to believe, are not worth spit. They’re flowery nothings.
What matters is what is happeing *on the ground*.
The burnings, the riotings, and the gross and blatant inversion of anything that one might call justice.
ALL external western-country ‘aid’ to and trade with Islamic Egypt should STOP. Now. Cut the bastards off. And NO Muslim from Egypt should be let into any western country. Ever. Expel all those currently present, tourists, students, businessmen. Kick them out. The *only* persons from Egypt who should be let into the West are those who on careful – really careful! – investigation, carried out in conjunction with Coptic emigre clergy, are bona fide Coptic Christians.
More – “By the time the Coptic homes were attacked, **police had arrested 16 Copts in connection with the unrest**.
:”Many other young Copts left the village for fear of being arrested.
:”Nady said the police made the arrests to force the Copts into a Customary Reconciliation Session (formal village meeting) where, in exchange for an end to the rioting, the Copts would give up their plans for a licenced church.”
SHIT. Just, SHIT. There are not bad words enough to describe my revulsion at the mohammedan parade of gross injustice. Islam is a sh*t religion. It teaches people to behave like bullies and thugs and it programs them to LOVE being bullies and thugs, murderers, robbers, rapists, arsonists; to wallow and revel in absolute evil.
And meanwhile.. perfectly-made-up perfectly-safe (except from their mohammedan male owners!) hijabettes and burqa babes and niqabettes here in the West whine and squeal and make up stories about how somebody *dared* to look at them funny as they paraded about in their Gang Uniform, or how somebody laid a finger to their Sacred Slave Rag aka Jihad-and-Sharia Badge. They make me want to puke.

dumbledoresarmy, i see that U’re in a bad place. i, too, have been in that place, where i rage helplessly against the injustice and evil of this vile criminal cult, and against what i once thought was the stupidity of the leaders of western republics (i grow more and more certain every day that it is *deliberate*). at such times, i extinguish my rage by working – working to set aside arms and ammunition, shelf-stable food, and *lots* of water. the f**king nazis who are running our nations (perhaps “*ruining* our nations” is more apt) will do *nothing* to protect us, so it is up to us to protect ourselves. since we live in a republic, where the government is by *laws* rather than executive fiat (or at least, it’s *supposed* to work that way), it is important that we scrupulously obey the law as long as possible; the damage to the republic will *NOT* be done by my hands. instead, the record will show that the f**king nazis of the hard left will have been the ones who let criminals loose on the streets to murder at will, who covered for the pious muslim monsters until society collapsed. i will probably end up dead, an early casualty of the coming civil war, because i’m old and slow, but it won’t be because i sat on my hands and let the liars and the criminals destroy civilization.

Egypt: Muslims screaming “Allahu akbar” smash church’s doors and windows, pelt Christian homes with stones
The church’s 700 Coptic members, who had used the building as a church for 10 years, had also applied for the building to be expanded…
………………………..
Under full Shari’ah law, no Christians are allowed to build churches, or even repair them.
More:
“Many Muslim young men from our village and villages nearby gathered in front of the church building and began pelting it with stones and bricks while shouting ‘Allahu akbar’ [Allah is the greatest], and ‘We don’t want a church in our village’,” said Medhat Halim, a resident in the village.
………………………..
“Villages nearby”–in other words, Muslims got up a Muslim mob. This is enormously common in Islam.
More:
“Some Muslim villagers had a meeting in one of the mosques. They incited people against us. After the meeting they set fire to a wood store owned by my brother, and four other houses,” said Christian resident Magdy Nady.
………………………..
The violence against Christians was ginned up at the Mosque. Also enormously common.
More:
Police arrested five Christians as they tried to extinguish the fires.
………………………..
And, finally, this–that Christians were arrested for trying to put out the fire that Muslims had set.
We see this all the time in Muslim countries like Egypt and Pakistan, where police further persecute the victims. *Ugh*.
