FORTY-FOUR DEAD CHRISTIANS: ISLAM’S LATEST VICTIMS |
||
Egypt’s Christians started Holy Week celebrations by being blown up yesterday. Two Coptic Christian Orthodox churches packed with worshippers for Palm Sunday mass were attacked by Islamic suicide bombers; a total of 44 were killed and 126 wounded and mutilated. | The Islamic state claims both December 11’s and yesterday’s bombings. (Because there was no “Islamic State†around in 2011, only generic “Islamics†can claim that one.) This uptick in Christian persecution is believed to be in response to a video recently released by the Islamic State in Sinai. In it, masked militants promised more attacks on the “worshipers of the cross,†a reference to the Copts of Egypt, whom they also referred to as their “favorite prey†and—in a bit of classic Muslim projection—as the “infidels who are empowering the West against Muslim nations.†| |
