Egypt: Muslim hurls Molotov cocktail at Greek Orthodox church in Alexandria

Jun 7, 2020 9:00 am By Robert Spencer

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 […]

CAIR gets Christian program banned from Virginia jail

Sep 24, 2019 4:00 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

“A Virginia jail has ended a Christian program which inmates dubbed the ‘God Pod’ after a lawsuit alleged the program provided favorable treatment to Christians and discriminated against Muslims.” The argument was that “those in the ‘God Pod’ received preferred status such as their own cell and use of a television and microwave.” But there […]

Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Palestinian territories are among most dangerous places on earth for Christians

Jan 17, 2018 6:13 am By Christine Douglass-Williams

Egypt, Jordan, Syria and the Palestinian territories are amongst the most dangerous places on earth for Christians, according to a new report. Another report by the European-based Catholic Charity Aid to the Church in Need reported before Christmas that Christians are the most persecuted religious group in the world, and that Christianity could be wiped out […]

Virginia: Muslim gets 20 years for joining ISIS, says they studied Islam for 8 hours every day

Oct 28, 2017 10:33 am By Robert Spencer

“I didn’t agree with their ideology. Our daily life was basically prayer, eating, and learning about the religion for about eight hours.” Imagine spending all that time studying Islam and yet still misunderstanding its true, peaceful message. We can only hope that learned imams such as Pope Francis and H.R. McMaster will go to Virginia […]

Egypt: Muslim stabs security guard who prevented him from entering a church

Jul 16, 2017 9:12 am By Robert Spencer

Imagine the outcry if a Christian had stabbed a guard who prevented him from entering a mosque. But you won’t hear anything about this. If you asked 100 people on the street which was a bigger problem, “Islamophobia” or the Muslim persecution of Christians, most would likely say “Islamophobia.” This testifies to the relentlessness of […]

Egypt: Police foil jihad suicide bombing at Alexandria church

Jun 25, 2017 1:39 pm By Robert Spencer

Pope Francis should return to Egypt immediately, seek out these jihadis, and explain to them that authentic Islam and the proper understanding of the Qur’an reject every form of violence. That will fix everything. “Egyptian police say they foiled church bombing,” AFP, June 24, 2017 (thanks to The Religion of Peace): CAIRO — Egyptian police […]

Graphic: Images and video of Palm Sunday’s Coptic church bombings

Apr 12, 2017 7:47 am By Raymond Ibrahim

The number of dead from the Palm Sunday bombings of two Coptic churches in Egypt has climbed to 50: thirty Christians were killed at the St. George Church in Tanta, and 15 Christians and five police officials were killed in St. Mark in Alexandria. About 120 are seriously injured. Because Islamic suicide bombings are on the […]

Egypt: Muslim who bombed Alexandria cathedral was previously arrested for ties to the Islamic State

Apr 11, 2017 11:08 am By Robert Spencer

What do authorities think this catch-and-release procedure accomplishes? It keeps jihadis such as Abu Ishaq Al Masry off the streets for awhile, but it doesn’t do a thing to reform them. Do authorities think that if a jihadi sits in prison for awhile, or is deported, that he will suddenly realize that Islam is peace […]

Video: The moment a jihad-martyrdom suicide bomber blows himself up at Alexandria’s St. Mark’s Cathedral

Apr 9, 2017 1:10 pm By Robert Spencer

Will we send cruise missiles into Islamic State bases in Egypt? No, that wasn’t on Obama’s to-do list, which is apparently guiding Trump’s foreign policy at this point. The U.S. Embassy issued the usual pro forma condemnation, which accomplishes nothing except manifest the virtue of the one issuing it. Genuine action against those Muslim groups […]

Egypt: Second Palm Sunday church bombing, killing at least one at St. Mark’s Cathedral in Alexandria

Apr 9, 2017 7:30 am By Robert Spencer

“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) “Bomb Strikes St Mark’s Cathedral in Alexandria, Pope Tawadros II ‘Safe,’” Egyptian […]

Egypt: Four Christians slaughtered over the course of 10 days

Jan 18, 2017 4:31 pm By Raymond Ibrahim

That the Coptic Christian Church continues to voice its support for President Sisi should not be interpreted to mean that the situation of Egypt’s Christian minority has improved. One need only look to the substratum of news for confirmation. The current month of January alone has already witnessed three separate instances over the course of […]

Raymond Ibrahim: How the Islamic World was Forged: An Exercise in Common Sense

Sep 1, 2015 8:29 am By Raymond Ibrahim

What made non-Muslims convert to Islam, leading to the creation of the Islamic world? Early historical sources—both Muslim and non-Muslim—make clear that the Islamic empire was forged by the sword; that people embraced Islam, not so much out of sincere faith, but for a myriad of reasons—from converting in order to enjoy the boons of […]

Egypt: Three Christians arrested for showing “contempt for Islam”

Jul 16, 2015 1:09 pm By Robert Spencer

“In Egypt there is no such crime as evangelism,” yes, but in all majority-Muslim countries, Sharia remains a cultural hangover, and in Sharia, proselytizing among Muslims is an offense punishable by death. In the enlightened West, meanwhile, we do not arrest those who show “contempt for Islam,” or who oppose jihad terror. We just excoriate […]
