Egypt: Muslims open fire on bus full of Christians on way to monastery, at least seven murdered

Nov 2, 2018 10:17 am By Robert Spencer

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.

Dec 19, 2016 7:41 am By Raymond Ibrahim

Egypt: Muslims prevent Christians from praying in Coptic home

Apr 14, 2015 6:17 pm By Raymond Ibrahim
