Egyptian TV Host...: Christian Egyptians Traveling to Jerusalem Are Committing Treason
MEMRI TV ^ | 4-6-12 | Dream 2 TV (Egypt)

Posted on 04/18/2012 9:35:37 AM PDT by DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis

Following are excerpts from statements by Egyptian TV host Wael El-Ebrashi, which aired on Dream2 TV on April 6, 2012 :

Wael El-Ebrashi : It is a disgrace that Egyptian Christians go to the Israeli embassy to obtain visas. No Egyptian citizen – Muslim or Christian – should ever disgrace himself in such a way. Going to the Israeli embassy and soiling your passport with an Israeli visa is the epitome of disgrace and normalization of relations.

[…]

The aerial convoy taking Christian Egyptians to Jerusalem constitutes treason against the nation, and the Christians must, at the very least, apologize for this grave mistake. Religious tourism is not more important than the homeland.

[…]

We must stop this aerial convoy of Egyptian Christians by any possible means. This constitutes treason against the nation rather than personal freedom.

[…]

So, was this BECAUSE the U.S. President, born in Kenya, Muslim President left clear instructions? Or is there something else here we’re not seeing that is mischief work of Hillary? This isn’t the HOPE and CHANGE we were led to believe we would receive...

Egyptian Christians certainly aren't committing treason.It must be said,howsever,that any Christian who voluntarily lives in today's Egypt desperately need prayers...and,perhaps,psychological counseling.

I see a Coptic genocide or at blvery least an ethnic cleansing in the future. We should invade Egypt and allow the Copts to settle in Lebanon.

Unless they want to follow the path of Justin Martyr, Egyptian Christians should leave Egypt for good. There is no shame in it. Christians fled from Titus, who was a gentleman compared to the demonics in the Muslim Brotherhood.

Well then they might as well do the right thing...emigrate to Israel and join the military.

Just for some perspective, there are about as many Christians in Egypt as there are Jews in Israel. It’s a significant population.

Egypt's TV host is still P.O.’d at what happened to Pharaoh Ramses during The Exodus.

The Egyptian Christians would be treated much better in Israel, oh the irony, than their home country after the recent “revolution”.

Sounds like all those Arab springs are getting pretty wound up...and we all know what happens when one over-winds a watch or clock.
