Egypt: Christian Exodus

After the Egyptian Revolution, this is what the Copts in Egypt get: harassment, violence, rape and death threats. That’s what Obama in his narrow, naïve Middle East vision would label as post-Mubarak “progress”:

“Not every country will follow our particular form of representative democracy, and there will be times when our short-term interests don’t align perfectly with our long-term vision for the region.”

Well, was this more true for Mubarak’s regime or is it more true for Egypt’s anti-American, anti-Christian and anti-Israel Islamist/nationalist regime after the Egyptian September parliament elections?

The Egyptian Christians know the answer.

Quotes and Sayings

About the Region, Islam and cultural totalitarianism...

    People less informed and less responsible than our leaders and yours, ignoring the need for co-operation of the Arabs and Zionists have been trying to exploit the local difficulties that must necessarily arise in Palestine in the early stages of our movements…I look forward, and my people with me look forward, to a future in which we will help you and you will help us, so that the countries in which we are mutually interested may once again take their places in the community of civilised peoples of the world.

    — Faisal bin al-Hussein, Letter to Felix Frankfurter, President of the Zionist Organisation of America; Paris, March 3, 1919
