More than 30 churches have been destroyed in the past week, activists say, as thugs launch a campaign of intimidation.

Cairo, Egypt - At Abu Seifein church in the wealthy Cairo district of Mohandeseen, there was little sign of any damage on Thursday, despite the rubble lying in the streets nearby. The church is a short walk away from Al-Gamat Al-Dowal Street, the site of heavy clashes the day before, but despite the violence, the church escaped unscathed.

Many churches in Egypt were not so lucky. Security forces moved to violently disperse two protest camps by supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi in Cairo on Wednesday morning, setting in motion a day of deadly violence that left at least 525 people dead in clashes across the country.

Amid the violence, alleged Morsi supporters carried out on dozens of attacks on churches and Christian-owned properties throughout the country.

Mina Thabet, an activist with Christian rights group the Maspero Youth Union, told Al Jazeera on Friday that at least 32 churches had been “completely destroyed, burned or looted” in eight different governorates over the previous two days. The group also recorded dozens of other attacks on Christian-owned shops, businesses and schools around the country.

this is absolutely sickening.
 
This is good news for American liberals. It shows them what determination can do. They would like to do the same thing here, but we still have too many guns.

Libs must be cheering

Well... yeah... but... yes the libtards hate Christians, but, they also love the homos, and the people burning the churchs are muslim homo haters.

Hmmm... guess the libroids have a real conundrum on their hands don't they. They like the burning churches Christian put down, but then they have to square their love for the muslims doing it and their hatred for their pet queers.

Maybe we could get a homo/muslim loving libtard to come in here and explain this to us.
 
Egypt was once a Christian country. Like Lebanon was.

This is the goal of islam. Total world domination, one country at a time.
 
See when I see people saying we should gas muslims and then this happens? I cant really find the care at all..
 
Pretty ironic that the American left urges tolerance for the jihad while the jihad exhibits profound intolerance for Christianity.

Intolerance of Christianity is shared by jihadists and liberals. Liberals imagine they are breaking down belief in God bit by bit. Use islam to get rid of Christians and Jews, then deal with islam down the line. Islam might be easier to bring into the homosexual fold than Christians are once the common enemy of Christians and Jews are gone.
 
Thanks God for the Egyptian Military...... and good riddance to Mohammed Morsi! :eusa_clap:






“The Egyptian defense minister ordered the engineering department of the armed forces to swiftly repair all the affected churches, in recognition of the historical and national role played by our Coptic brothers,” read a statement that aired on Egyptian television.

Egypt is rapidly devolving into a cesspool or violence and criminal activity.

Not surprised. Egyptians use upheaval as an excuse to go after Christians like blacks use the race card as an excuse to accuse whites of every stupid thing that goes wrong in their lives.
