The persecution of Christians in Egypt is ongoing. But the United Nations and other alleged global enforcers of human rights are too busy issuing condemnations of Israel and hunting for incidents of “Islamophobia” to take any significant notice.
“Coptic diocese says group attacked Christian homes in Egypt,” Daily Journal, September 1, 2018:
CAIRO — A group of Muslims attacked several Christian homes in a village in Upper Egypt, injuring three people, officials with a Coptic Christian diocese said on Friday.
The assailants objected to the presence of a church in the area, the Minya Coptic Orthodox Diocese said in a statement. Plans to attack Copts in the village had circulated days before the incident and were reported to authorities but security only arrived after the attacks, it said. The wounded, including two Copts and a firefighter, were all hospitalized.
A similar assault for the same reason had taken place in a neighboring village weeks earlier, the diocese said, blaming authorities for a lack of deterrence for Friday’s attacks and calling on them to take punitive measures against the assailants….
The Minya diocese said Copts there usually opt to use “a house, hall or simple room” to hold services as a temporary solution to avoid attacks on worshippers en route to churches in neighboring villages….

I wonder if these miscreants realize there is something called the interwebs where their vile behavior is displayed for all

As far as the Leftards are concerned, Judaism and Christianity are the enemies of their utopia and Islam is the strategic ally that will attack and weaken the resistance of Jews and Christians.
Their utopia is an atheist one-world banking system run by a small group of billionaires and trillionaires for their own benefit.
For the time being, oil sheikhs are part of the club, but that is only temporary until the banksters can control it all.
It is a form of global feudalism and many who should know better are working for the banksters and doing their dirty work for them.
What they are doing is to increase the power and wealth of Islamic countries which will lead to an eventual nuclear war started probably by Sunnis fighting Shi’ites.
The West is doing nothing to stop this war from coming about. The basis of the coming war is IDEOLOGICAL and so it must be fought IDEOLOGICALLY.

The Pact of Omar is enforced in Egypt even though it is not in the Egyptian constitution.
Christians may be persecuted for any perceived breach of the Pact of Omar and police will do little to prevent or stop it unless they are ordered from the president’s office.
The Egyptian police want to act as ‘good’ Muslims and stay on good terms with the religious Muslims.

Why our civilisation could not found a better, a fair and correct “UNITED WESTERN NATIONS” without any religious underwandering, aggressive terrorloaded behaviour?
The actual UN is more and more in the hands of islamic hardliners, they do contribute NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING!
We should quit alltogether the UN, and separate us from them!
How there could be a real peace- an fruitful future with such low fanatic backward orientated culture?
How?

Egypt is not our friend, nor a friend of the West. Once enough momentum has returned to the regional plans and dreams to destroy Israel, look to Egypt to jump on the band wagon again. I suspect this will occur when Gaza is again put under Egypt’s control under the guise of restoring peace and tranquility to Gaza, destroying ISIS in the Sinai, and controlling or destroying the Muslim Brotherhood.
No US taxpayer money should be going to Egypt, Turkey, Jordan, Iraq, or any of the area despots that are perpetually bankrupt. Well, except for their Swiss Chalet, Monaco Condo, and a mistress or two at each one.
The Russian or Chinese economies cannot support these countries either, which is why they jumped ship and ran to America with hands out (especially Egypt). The Saudis are too stingy to help their neighbors and do not trust them. There must have been some US or EU promises to the KSA when they stupidly funded the purchase of two Mistral class carriers for Egypt. BTW, can those guys even run those things?
Israel is the only country that should have and is capable of running an aircraft carrier. Unfortunately, they would expect us to pay for it. If we stopped supporting their neighbors, we would not need to support Israel. They are smart, educated, techno sufficient, and not poor by any means.

This picture always represents, for me, the most graphic illustration of the persecution of Christian in Muslim-majority countries.
