Imam  Obama sends his regards:

Statement by the President on Hajj and Eid-ul-Adha

Michelle and I extend our greetings for a happy Eid-ul-Adha to Muslims worldwide and wish safe travels to those performing Hajj.  This year, nearly three million pilgrims from more than 160 countries – including the United States – have gathered in Mecca and neighboring sites to perform the Hajj rituals and stand together in prayer.

Tiny minority of excremists doesn’t get the message, shouts “death to America, death to Israel”

Hajj pilgrims chant “Death to America,” “Death to Israel”

Tens of thousands of Muslims chanted “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” at the annual Hajj pilgrimage, which the Ayatollah of Iran called “a symbol of spirituality.”

Reportedly, 4000 Muslims attacked Copts in Upper Egypt this week.
Voice of the Copts reported, via Gateway:

Four thousand Muslims are attacking Copts in Upper Egypt, Kina County. In the town of Al- Nawaed, in the center of Abu Teshet.

The attackers surrounded the area, starting fires in Coptic houses while Copts were still inside.
Voice of the Copts will update you with additional details once available.

Once again the religion of peace is showing its real face.

Atlas has more on the attacks.

At least 6 Christians killed in shooting outside church

At least five Coptic Christians have been killed in a drive-by shooting outside a church in southern Egypt, officials say.

Update: “It is all religious now. This is a religious war about how they can finish off the Christians in Egypt”

• Algerian Muslims Block Christmas Service: This land is the land of Islam! Go pray somewhere else, some of the protestors said, according to El Watan. Protestors also reportedly threatened to kill the church pastor.

The shooting came as worshippers left the church in Naj Hammadi after a midnight mass on Coptic Christmas Eve.

Unidentified gunmen sprayed gunfire indiscriminately into the crowd, officials said.

Two Muslims passing the church were among 10 people reportedly injured in the attack.

Naj Hammadi is 40 miles (64km) from Luxor, southern Egypt’s biggest city.

Coptic Christians account for about 10% of the Egypt’s population of 80 million.

They have complained of harassment and discrimination, though sectarian violence is unusual.

Google “attacks on Copts” and you’ll find thousands of “unusual sectarian violence”

Here’s the report from the Associated (with terrorists) Press:

Spencer: A deliberately timed massacre, though the ongoing persecution of Christians in Egypt by Muslims is only vaguely alluded to at the end of the article. “Gunmen kill 6 at Egypt church after Christmas Mass,” by Sarah El-Deeb for the Associated Press, January 6:  JW

“Qena is one of Egypt’s poorest and most conservative areas.”

Conservative, how? That, and its bearing on security for Christians in Egypt is left unsaid.

More on the oppression of the Copts:

• Egypt’s Coptic Christians battle for ID cards
• Clashes erupt over Egypt pig cull
• Christians killed in Egypt feud
• Egyptian Christian’s recognition struggle
• Egyptian killed in sectarian row
• Copts shot dead in Cairo attack

So the same article from Al BeBeeCeera includes 6 recent links to attacks and murders of Copts, the original inhabitants of Egypt. But the Beep insists on painting a pussy on your cheek: “sectarian violence is unusual.”

Egyptian cops arrest 13 Copts — the victims of attack by Islamic supremacists

Genocide on Copts/Jihad Watch

The local imam incited the Islamic supremacists to attack the Christians. So yet another imam is exposed as a Misunderstander of the Religion of Peace™. Why didn’t his Qur’anic study tell him to respect the People of the Book, and not to wage jihad against or expect them to assume dhimmi status? Aren’t Islamic apologists in the West forever telling us that the only people who believe that Muslims hold to jihad against Jews and Christians, and in dhimmitude, are greasy Islamophobes? How is it then that so many Muslims, including even imams, turn out to be greasy Islamophobes?
