A Coptic priest was killed this morning in Egypt in an ambush in all probability due to the situation created in the country after the overthrow of President Islamist Mohammed Morsi.
The murder took place in the town of El Arish in northern Sinai. The victim's father called Mina, was 39 years old and was the secretary of the Coptic bishop of El Arish Kosman. The cleric was shot while he was in the car with his wife, who would be shocked at the hospital.
The murder of Father Mina is a further leap in quality in recent violence against Copts: already the other day had been assaulted ask a Coptic Catholic in the district of Minya. Last night in Luxor then there would be three more victims Coptic. The anger of the Islamists, therefore, is taking once again targeted Christians in Egypt, claiming that the Coptic Pope Tawadros II was on the side of the forces that ousted Bites. It is not 'a case that the murder happened right in the Sinai area from time out of control, become a crossroads of Islamist terrorism.
It must be said peroché even by the official representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood at this time there has been an escalation in tone against Copts. Yesterday afternoon - for example - in his speech at the event pro Morsi, the supreme leader of the movement Mohammed Badie had lashed out against Tawadros II claiming that the Coptic Pope does not speak on behalf of Christians. A message that - obviously - someone has taken very quickly as a green light to the sectarian violence.
Save Thy people, O Lord,
and bless Thine inheritance.
Grant victory to Thy Church over her enemies,
and protect Thy people by Thy Holy Cross
Lord have mercy on him, and on all the Christians in these Muslim hell holes.
I don’t think Morsi’s deposition has a thing to do with this. The Muzzie fanatics were murdering plenty of Copts and priests before this happened. It’s one of their favorite things to do.
You’d think a few of the infestation of imams in America would get kicked around once in a while.
We praise Thee o Lord and we adore Thee. May the light of Thy martyrs shine on Thy enemies.
Father Mina, pray for us sinners.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.
Oh. . I see. . all the Imans are busy organizing "Don't You Dare Blame Us" rallies.
Russian flag on the bank?
Probably just a coinkdink to go with the Useful Idiot in the boat who appears, I do believe, to be holding his paddle with the blades upside down.
What a sad little character. All buzzwords, bullshyte, and imagery - and nothing of substance to stand upon.
Almost have to feel sorry for him sometimes.
Almost.
This is the kind of aftermath that some people don’t understand when they rally for blood curdling violence.
