Will the Islamophobia never end? The mob in this case is enraged over a Christian’s alleged “blasphemy” on Facebook. Authorities do nothing to stop the mob because all too often they are more sympathetic to the rioters than to their victims. An update on this story. “Egypt: Hundreds of Muslim villagers attack Christians after alleged […]
Egypt: Muslim hurls Molotov cocktail at Greek Orthodox church in Alexandria
This attack took place at Holy Virgin and Mar-Girgis (St George) Greek Orthodox Church in Ghabrial, Alexandria. It is yet another reminder of the precarious circumstances in which Christians in Egypt live, solely because of their faith. But because they are not Muslims suffering from “Islamophobia,” the world yawns. “Attempted Attack at Orthodox Church in […]
Egypt: Muslims planned jihad massacre at Easter celebrations today
What better day than when Christians are rejoicing? “And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, whom Allah knows.” (Qur’an 8:60) An update on this […]
Egypt: Muslims who targeted Christians for jihad massacre planned to strike under cover of coronavirus curfew
What better time to strike than when people are taking steps to protect themselves? It maximizes the terror. “And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may strike terror in the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not […]
Egypt: Muslims set Christian houses on fire because the Christians wanted to pray together in days before Christmas
You will likely not hear about this anywhere but here. But just imagine if the roles were reversed (which never happens; nor should it). Then it would be screaming international news. “Coptic Houses Set on Fire,” International Christian Concern, January 4, 2020: 01/04/2020 Egypt (International Christian Concern) – Egyptian Christian houses were set on fire […]
Egypt: Muslim demands Christians not sit outside their house, stabs them when they refuse
He wanted them to submit to his commands. Islamic law mandates a second-class status for Christians, in which they “pay the jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued” (Qur’an 9:29). When they refused, he considered it permissible to attack them, as they had forfeited the protection that submission allows for. “Coptic Christian Family Attacked […]
Canada under siege: Islamic supremacist onslaught against Christian federal Conservative candidate
The National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) is calling on a Toronto-area Conservative candidate in the upcoming fall Federal elections to drop out of the race “following reports about her past social media posts,” which the NCCM deems to be “Islamophobic.” The candidate is Ghada Melek, a Coptic Christian immigrant. The acting executive director of […]
Egypt: Christian arrested, Muslims trash home over claim he insulted Islam on Facebook
Allegedly insulting Islam — including speaking the truth about its teachings that justify violence and oppression — already gets people vilified, ostracized, and marginalized in the U.S. and Europe. How long before it becomes a criminal offense? What has happened to Fady Yousef will be happening to Americans and Europeans before too long. “Coptic Christian […]
BBC admits, Christian persecution ‘at near genocide levels’
A friend joked with me earlier when I showed him this, “I never saw that coming, maybe the BBC are bragging about it now that genocide is assured”. Does this make the BBC “Islamophobic” now? no, they managed to publish this without mentioning the cause, “honest Guv, they just vanished”. Of course I joke though […]
Egypt: Church Closed after Muslim mob beats up priest, scares 200 Sunday school children onlookers
Another story that should have wider coverage in the mainstream media but does not: a barbaric mob of Muslims, some wielding clubs and knives, beat up a Coptic priest and another Copt. in front of 200 Christian children attending bible study. Why? Because the church they were attending was undergoing renovation expansion. For Islamic supremacists, […]
Egypt: Muslims who killed Christians told women, “We will kill the men and children and leave you to live in misery”
Coptic Christians continue to suffer and to be terrorized by jihadis who are determined to destroy their lives solely as punishment for their being Christian. Jihadists injured at least 20 people and killed 7 when they ambushed Christians who were on a return trip from a monastery on the outskirts of Cairo. In the words […]
Egypt: Muslims open fire on bus full of Christians on way to monastery, at least seven murdered
Christians in Egypt have endured discrimination, harassment, and sometimes open persecution for fourteen centuries. When Arab armies invaded Egypt, it was 99% Christian, but over the centuries, the institutionalized second-class status of dhimmitude that the Muslim rulers imposed upon the Christian population reduced the Christians to a small minority in their native land. This kind […]
Egypt: After Muslim mobs demonstrate, Christians jailed for worshipping in unlicensed house
All too often, Christians can’t get licenses to build churches, and then are punished for not having them. Islamic law forbids Christians to build new churches. “Christians in Egypt Jailed for Worshipping in Unlicensed House,” Morning Star News, September 6, 2018: (Morning Star News) – Authorities yesterday ordered 15 more days of jail for Christians […]
Egypt: Muslim mob attacks Christian homes, injuring three people
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 […]
Egypt: Muslim mobs force closure of 8 Christian churches seeking official recognition
“We haven’t heard that a mosque was closed down or the prayer was stopped in it because it was unlicensed. Is that justice? Where is the equality? Where is the religious freedom? Where is the law? Where are the state’ institutions?” Good questions. “Egypt: Muslim mobs force closure of 8 Coptic churches seeking ‘official’ recognition,” […]
Egypt: Muslim attempts jihad suicide bombing at church, blows himself up when guards approach
Egypt was conquered by Arab armies in 642. Its Islamization was accomplished, as I detail in my book The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, by placing the humiliating and discriminatory regulations of dhimmitude upon the native Christian population. Those regulations had their intended effect: Egypt was 99% Christian at the time of the […]
Egypt: Bishop found murdered in monastery
This murder could have been perpetrated by someone within the monastery, but it is more likely to be more of the Muslim persecution of the Coptic Christians that has been ongoing for fourteen centuries, and has stepped up in virulence since 2013, when the Muslim Brotherhood government was toppled and the Brotherhood blamed the nation’s […]
Egypt: Muslim mob screaming “Allahu akbar” encouraged by police in attack on church
Islamic law is clear: “The subject peoples … are forbidden to build new churches.” (Reliance of the Traveller, o11.5). That’s why these Muslims riot at the prospect of a new church being built, and why the police aid the rioters instead of the victims. The police agree with the rioters. “Egypt: Mob attack encouraged by […]
Coptic Pope: Egypt has been model for coexistence between Christians and Muslims for 14 centuries
The Coptic Christians are under tremendous pressure in Egypt, and in that light it is understandable why Pope Tawadros would say this, as preposterous as it is: to state the truth might make the situation even more difficult for Egyptian Christians. In reality, they have been oppressed for centuries, and when that oppression was relaxed, […]
Raymond Ibrahim: Jizya, “Military Exemption,” and Murdered Christian Soldiers
One of the staples of the Islamic whitewashing industry is the claim that jizya — the extortion money subjugated Jews and Christians were required to pay (a la Koran 9:29) — actually “entitled them to Muslim protection from outside aggression and exempted them from military service,” to quote Georgetown University’s John Esposito. By this widely held logic, […]
