Egypt Christians protest in Cairo after church attack
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-13331628 (Shows video of Al Azraa Church on fire) >>Christians in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, are holding a protest vigil near Tahrir Square following an attack on two churches in which 12 people died. […] Egypt's army says more than 190 people detained after the violence will face military trials. The ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces called the move a "deterrent" against further violence. […] Saturday's violence started after several hundred conservative Salafist Muslims gathered outside the Coptic Saint Mena Church in Cairo's Imbaba district. […] Christian leaders have declared three days of mourning for those who died in Saturday's violence. […] Military authorities are promising tougher measures against anyone who attacks a place of worship, but such promise have been made before, to little effect, says our correspondent. […] Hard-line Salafi Muslim groups were rarely seen in the days of Mubarak, but now they are now able to mount aggressive demonstrations against perceived threats to Islam, straining community relations, our […] During the protests in Cairo, many Christians and Muslims had protested alongside each other and protected each other during prayer times. But in March, 13 people died in sectarian clashes in another neighbourhood. Last month, demonstrators in the southern city of Qena cut all transport links with Cairo for a week in protest over the appointment of a Christian governor.>> And also: Salafist groups find footing in Egypt after revolution http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12985619 >>While Western governments have long worried about Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, Egyptians are more concerned about the rise of Salafist groups, which have been blamed for a series of violent incidents in rural areas. .>> Looks like the Egyptians are doomed to live in "interesting times" at least for a while.

Oh I don't know Stevenlmeyer, if two warring Christian groups (Catholic and Protestant) can maintain a 'war' for so long in Northern Ireland, then we can assume that the warring activities of two conflicting religions have no chance of ever finishing at all!

Steven I support your last post and every point you highlight in it.
And in fact some of those points support my report that the Army is seemingly not quite doing the right thing,in a timely manner. And the poison relationship between this extremely radical group, and Coptic Christians,far from our view of Christianity,colors the issue. Some seem intent on drifting your subject in to fantasy land. But as has been the case in other threads you started about this part of the world, we may see great change. Good or bad,but any day an event may rock this part of the world. OFF subject, may I remind some,in post after post as is your right you tell us of lies by the west. Then claim, unfortunately, we who disagree are not just wrong, but much more. Any mirrors at your place? Truly! please show more respect for views other than your own please Posted by Belly, Tuesday, 10 May 2011 5:17:47 AM
