Religion Of Peace Says Happy New Year - Christian Church Bombed - Twenty-One Dead - Scores Injured
Here's The Right Side Of It ^ | January 1, 2011 | John L. Work

Posted on 01/01/2011 3:05:52 PM PST by JLWORK

Here are New Year’s greetings from the peaceful World of Islam to Christendom, replete with death and dismembered bodies strewn about the street.

With thanks to MichaelSavage.com:

A New Year’s Eve Christmas service ended with the deaths of at least twenty-one and injuries to at least seventy-nine in Alexandria, Egypt, as a bomb detonated just outside the church – following threats by Muslims to “attack Egypt’s Christians”. The link to Maggie Michael’s AP story is here:

http://apnews.myway.com/article/20110101/D9KFKCV80.html

“ALEXANDRIA, Egypt (AP) – A powerful bomb, possibly from a suicide attacker, exploded in front of a Coptic Christian church as a crowd of worshippers emerged from a New Years Mass early Saturday, killing at least 21 people and wounding nearly 80 in an attack that raised suspicions of an al-Qaida role…”

And where, pray tell us, would members of al-Quaida get such an idea? From the Torah? Perhaps from some violent verses to be found in The Holy Bible?

“…The attack came in the wake of threats by al-Qaida militants in Iraq to attack Egypt’s Christians. A direct al-Qaida hand in the bombing would be a dramatic development, as the government of President Hosni Mubarak has long denied that the terror network has a significant presence in the country. Al-Qaida in Iraq has already been waging a campaign of violence against Christians in that country…”

A dramatic development, indeed. Is it conceivable that al-Quaida can possibly spring from some as-yet undiscovered doctrine with which President Mubarak and his security forces are not yet familiar? Perhaps they have not yet explored the Koran, the Hadithe and the Sunnah. This bombing has to be some sort of terrible aberration of the genuine peaceful Islam. Maybe the perpetrators of this horror did not receive the memos that George W. Bush, Tony Blair, Bill Clinton and Barack Hussein Obama have sent to the people of the United States, which assure us we have nothing to fear from Islam’s peaceful nature.

“…Egypt has seen growing tensions between its Muslim majority and Christian minority – and the attack raised a dangerous new worry, that al-Qaida or militants sympathetic to it could be aiming to stoke sectarian anger or exploit it to gain a foothold…”

Yes. And I wonder what part those awful Christians have played in this rising tension that is stoking sectarian anger. Wait – I forgot – they’re holding Christian church services. There’s the answer.

“…”The last thing I heard was a powerful explosion and then my ears went deaf,” Marco Boutros, a 17-year-old survivor, said from his hospital bed. “All I could see were body parts scattered all over – legs and bits of flesh.”…”

“…Blood splattered the facade of the church, as well as a mosque directly across the street. Bodies of many of the dead were collected from the street and kept inside the church overnight before they were taken away Saturday by ambulances for burial…”

I’m sure there must be a way for everyone to get along together. Maybe the answer lies in a mass exodus of Christians and Jews from the Middle East. Or, perhaps that’s what this mass murder is all about in the first place.

And please notice, gentle people, that the only photos the AP provides us in this story are of a lone purported Copt (Christian) throwing an object at the Egyptian riot police sent to quell the anger:

Too late to send Katie Couric - the bomb already exploded.

When Islam came for the Coptic Christians, I remained silent; I was not a Coptic Christian.

When Islam came for Orthodox Christians, I remained silent; I was not a Orthodox Christian.

When Islam came for the Catholics, I did not speak out; I was not a Catholic.

When Islam came for the Protestants, I did not speak out; I was not a Protestant.

When Islam came for the Jews, I remained silent; I wasn’t a Jew.

When they came for me, there was no one left to speak out.

Any mention of this from the major networks?

Didn’t think so.

No Surrender! Every American that can grasp “The Sheepdog Concept”, should act accordingly! They declared war on us. The federal government is not going to protect us. We have the 2nd Amendment. We have the right to defend ourselves under that right, so says the Supreme Court. Exercise that right, folks!

How about you, John and Jane Q. Public? Got your CCW paperwork in the mill? Don’t answer. Got your CCW firearms class scheduled? Don’t answer. Got yourself something to TAKE to the CCW class? Don’t answer. If you have ‘it’, are you putting rounds downrange, to perfect the marriage of firearm and human? Don’t answer.

Why don’t answer? It’s called “Concealed Carry Weapons Permit”, with a reason, right? Besides, ‘ol’ Ben-War-Da-Heck-Dat-Kam-Frum Abdul Da Bulbul Amir’ does not need to know, either.

If you fell this is over the top, how would you protect yourself in a jihadist moment? They want, desire, and plan to kill you, just because you exist! You figure out the rest.
