The question does not get asked often enough: why is it that certain barbaric behaviors are accepted when they come from one group, but not from others? In no Western country, nor in Israel, would it be acceptable for a teacher and students to beat up students who were of a different religion, and elementary-age children to boot. There would be a thunderous global outcry if Jewish or Christian teachers beat up Muslim students for being Muslims, but of course that wouldn’t happen and shouldn’t happen. Yet a similar incident did happen in Egypt, as Muslim teachers and students ganged up on students who were Christians and beat them up. Why? Because they were Christians and were wearing Christian emblems.
Yet Westerners who point out the truth about Muslim persecution of Christians and other religious minorities are regularly referred to as “Islamophobes,” while Israel (where Christians can live in peace and where Muslims are even welcomed in the Knesset) is branded as an “apartheid” state.
The Islamic supremacist mission is to Islamize everywhere and proclaim only one dominant religion: Islam, all while the willfully blind look the other way in fear, in hopes that 1400 years of consistent practice will magically vanish. Appeasement causes Islamic supremacist abuse and discrimination everywhere to escalate.
“Christian students in Egypt beaten at school, ordered by teachers to remove all jewelry bearing a cross,” by Anugrah Kumar, Christian Post, November 21, 2021:
Coptic students at an elementary and middle school in Egypt’s Minya Governorate were beaten up by teachers and fellow students after the headmaster ordered all Christian students to remove any jewelry bearing a cross.
Believers in the Coptic community in Egypt often tattoo a cross on their wrist or wear necklaces or bracelets with a cross, but the headmaster of Al-Thawra school in Ezbat Beshri area ordered all Christian students to remove any such jewelry, according to the U.S.-based persecution watchdog International Christian Concern.
When some Coptic students refused to remove their jewelry, they were beaten up by fellow students and their teachers, the group added.
Citing one such incident in early November, ICC said a female teacher attacked a male Christian student, then encouraged other students to do the same and take his cross pendant and destroy it.
When Coptic parents learned about the order and the subsequent violence carried out against their children, they complained to education authorities. However, ICC said it’s unclear if the educational board took any action.
“The role of the teachers and administrative leaders in the incident is particularly concerning regarding the rhetoric being taught to the youth as it was the adults who led the persecution against the Christian children,” ICC said.
The Copts, who make up about 10% of Egypt’s population, are the descendants of a long line of ancient Egyptians who later converted to Christianity in the early first century, according to Encyclopedia Britannica.
According to the Christian persecution watchdog group Open Doors USA, Egypt is one of the 20 worst persecutors of Christians in the world.
Incidents of Christian persecution in Egypt vary from Christian women being harassed while walking in the street to Christian communities being driven out of their homes by extremist mobs, the group says on its website.
The Minya Governate is notorious for having the highest number of attacks on Christians, it adds.
Egypt’s government speaks positively about Egypt’s Christian community, but the lack of serious law enforcement and the unwillingness of local authorities to protect Christians leave them vulnerable to all kinds of attacks, especially in Upper Egypt, it explains. “Due to the dictatorial nature of the regime, neither church leaders nor other Christians are in a position to speak out against these practices.”…..

PMK says
Why don’t Copts have their own schools?
Infidel says
Precisely! And if the governor doesn’t allow it, they can – assuming they have internet – create homeschooling pods where different parents can teach a group of kids different subjects
ronyvo says
They do, PMK. Many churches have schools. However, they are invaded by Muslims. The government gives them permission (don’t forget that Egypt was over 96% Copts when the barbaric Muslims invaded it) with the condition to take in Muslim kids. The Copts agree (obviously they have no choice) and when a parent brings his/her child to the school he/she must sign an agreement that the child attends a bible study class. As far as I know it is working OK for the Copts.
Infidel says
Common to the subcontinent, where Hindus who wear sacred wrist-bands or marks on their foreheads are targeted in muslim majority areas. Particularly in Bangladesh
The real news in this story is that there are still Copts in Egypt
gravenimage says
Yes–all Infidels in Muslim countries face this kind of disgusting persecution.
ronyvo says
Oh YES, infidel, there are a lot of Copts STILL in Egypt. The Coptic church is strong spiritually. AND, that is why the Copts are the MOST hated Christians in the ME. The Muslims cannot get rid of them as the y have done with the rest of the ME countries.
If you are interested in the history of the Coptic church, I would recommend ‘The history of the Copts, by Iris Habib el Masri’.
Boycott Turkey says
The Copts should have there own state in Egypt and also they should have there own schools
Hank says
Very true. Muslims demand the same in non-Islamic host nations.
tim gallagher says
Typical Muslim shit. Totally intolerant, barbaric scum. and yet, in our western countries, we keep treating Muslims tolerantly, which I think is undeserved because Muslims never show tolerance towards any non-Muslims in countries where they have power. Any tolerance is always one way.
GreekEmpress says
Will Pope Francis condemn this horrific attack?
(I not holding my breath)
GreekEmpress says
I just got a call from a friend whose son is in Egypt right now on a Christian mission. He knows I follow this type of activity. He’s asked for prayers for his son to make it back safely. He has two more days to go—

I hope he stays safe!
Rafael says
Egypt was one of the early centers of Christianity. Christian monasticism was brought up to Anatolia (Turkey) from Egypt via Syria. Now the surviving Christians in all of these countries are being persecuted by both the governments and the society. Even though, unlike the Turkish government, which regularly attacks and blames Christians and Jews for the problems in the country, Egypt’s speaking positively of Christian minorities means nothing. Because both of them are persecuting Christians and Jews and always blame Israel and the USA for their own problems.
ronyvo says
“why is it that certain barbaric behaviors are accepted when they come from one group, but not from others?”
Because the overwhelming majority are the barbaric, and this group got used for the ‘peaceful’ group will not react the same way. AND this is going on for over 1400 years.
“Egypt’s government speaks positively about Egypt’s Christian community, but the lack of serious law enforcement and the unwillingness of local authorities to protect Christians leave them vulnerable to all kinds of attacks,”
Islam was contained in the ME until the 7th century, the WEST had no idea of what the Muslims were doing to the invaded countries. BUT, in any way the Islamic takkya is at work.
Note, the Copts constitute over 25% of Egypt’s population NOT 10%. if serious and honest statistics are performed by gathering the information from the different bishoprics. like the death certificates, birth certificates and marriage certificates this would give a very close figure.
AND, if the huge number of Muslim apostates, who leave Islam to Christianity (Coptic), is added (but this would be a shaky figure due to obvious reason.
OLD GUY says
How long will it be before these attacks begin to occur in American communities. Open migration is bound to bring this to our neighborhoods.
Proud Islamophobe says
I’ve never understood how Egypt qualifies to broker ceasefires against Israel, and this is just one more reason why.

Egypt: Teachers and students beat up Coptic Christian children for wearing crosses
………….
And of course the shocking thing here is that it was not just playground bullies who did this, but *the teachers*, as well. In fact, they egged the Muslim kids on.
More:
When Coptic parents learned about the order and the subsequent violence carried out against their children, they complained to education authorities. However, ICC said it’s unclear if the educational board took any action.
………….
That this persecution goes up even higher should sadly surprise no one.
ronyvo says
“Open migration” aka illegal immigrants, aka Islamic invasion are aiming at the same goal, which is invading the world to establish the Islamic khaliphate.
