“This pogrom against Egypt's historic Christian community provides more bloody proof that the Muslim Brotherhood is not a fit partner for a future democratic Egypt but an avowed enemy of the values of democracy, equality and freedom....."
The Simon Wiesenthal Center has issued a statement of concern about the destruction of churches in Egypt and has urged the EU and US to designate the Muslim Brotherhood a hate group.

While the Obama Administration, the UN and EU wring their hands over the fate of the Muslim Brotherhood, kudos to Rabbis Hier and Cooper for their support of the Coptic community. They understand that Christians and Jews must stand together in these times. The Egyptian military is doing what needs to be done. They know that if the MB gets back into power, one day they will be sent to fight and die against Israel. They are the ones who have been keeping the peace for 4 decades-a peace the MB would shatter.
