Morsi Supporters Attack Two Christian Churches in Egypt

Hat tip Jihad i Malmö  and Daily News of Egypt


-Jihad i Malmö

Peace and Justice Party in action


I came across this report through the Swedish blog, Jihad i Malmö. Two churches in Egypt were attacked Saturday by a mob of Morsi/Muslim Brotherhood supporters with Molotov cocktails. They were thwarted by security forces and some local Muslim and Christian youths who came to the rescue.

Of course, not a word of this on the MB's English-language website, http://www.ikhwanweb.com/.

All they do is complaint about the military crackdown on them and their supporters.

And isn't it strange that I have to visit foreign blogs to learn of these things that our own vaunted news media with all their overseas offices and foreign correspondents can't or won't report to us?

Just for perspective, over half the mosques in the UK have been attacked since 2001.

Your point is that the media do far less reporting on attacks on Christian churches. This is probably true, as the media will always focus on widespread violence as opposed to a few isolated attacks. Media "coverage" has always been a oxymoron for me.

Don't worry -- the army will kill them for it. Happy now?
