Makes sense.

Over 60 churches across Egypt have been targeted by Muslim Brotherhood sympathizers as conflict rages across the country. Nonetheless, Coptic Christians are now returning to their church in Minya, which was burned by raging Islamists. “This will learn us to be better Christians” said Pastor Sameh Ibrahim. Fourteen churches in the area were burned in the past few days. In Minya, Christian churches have been slathered with black Xs to mark them for violence by Islamists.

“We live in our church, so when someone attacks our congregation, it’s as if our house is being attacked,” said Pastor John Amin of the Meni Mazar church. “Our children are afraid.”

This is part of a broader plan to stir up Islamist sentiment in favor of the Muslim Brotherhood, according to Abul Ezz el-Hariri, a Christian former presidential candidate. Members of the Christian community are largely backing the military interim government in their attempts to quash Muslim Brotherhood violence, including the Egyptian Christian leader Pope Tawadros II, who said, “The Coptic Orthodox Church of Egypt…confirms its strong stance with the Egyptian law enforcement, the armed forces, and all of the institutions of the Egyptian people in its confrontation of the violent armed organizations.”

    This is the result when there is no leadership in the WH. OBummer cares nothing about the burning of Christian churches in Egypt. Why should he? Yet again, he’s on the wrong side of history. But the Egyptian people get it. They know what he’s about, and want no part of him. When the MB walk the halls of our White House and has the ear of The Dear Jerk, do we really expect any different?

    I’m encouraged to hear the military chief has vowed to repair the churches that have been damaged/destroyed. Ultimately, The Highest Power is on their side, and so I say, hang on my brothers and sisters in the Lord! Christians around the world are praying for you. In the end, redemption will be had.

    There is no way a democratic society can exist where a Judeo-Christian culture is not prominent. I say- cut and run, let the infidels implode & then try to bring harmony to that region.God wont impose His will on crazies who defy Him. I agree Kitten, prayer is essential & victory is in the future but these murderers will not stop at this point.
