From Foreign Policy:
The sickening violence inflicted on Coptic Christian demonstrators in Cairo on Oct. 9 shocked Egyptians, and may have ended for good whatever remaining faith democracy activists had in the country’s interim military government, which appears to have orchestrated the violence. But Copts have been suffering attacks with growing regularity over the last several years, and this latest outburst only increased the fears among them that their status in Egypt, and possibly even their survival as a community, is now in jeopardy.
This is not only an Egyptian story. Just as rising intolerance drove vast numbers of Jews from North Africa and the Middle East in the 1950s and ’60s, so Christians, the one large remaining minority in the region, are now feeling the heat. In the wake of a campaign of murder and forced displacement, at least 400,000 Christians have fled Iraq since the fall of Saddam. Christians in neighboring Syria have clung to the increasingly precarious regime of Bashar al-Assad out of fear that the same fate could befall them should Syria’s Sunni majority take control. (Druze, Kurds, and other minorities seem to be making the same calculation.)
It WILL
There is only one place in the middle east where Christians can live their lives in security (from civil and state pogroms, if not annihilationist wars) and pursue their own goals.
That this is the case points out a very serious flaw in Administration policy. The realization when they look in the mirror THAT THEY ARE FRICKIN’ MORONS ON THE LOOSE.
These people are minorities being wiped out of existance by a civilizational and religiously required BELT SANDER and the double standards our govts maintain OUT OF MORAL AND PHYSICAL COWARDICE are CLEAR for all to see.
