SCREAMING "Kill! Kill! Kill!", suicide bombers belonging to the Islamic State of Iraq, a militant organisation connected to al-Qa'ida in Iraq, stormed a Chaldean church in Baghdad on Sunday. A spokesman later claimed they did so "to light the fuse of a campaign against Iraqi Christians".
The assailants' more immediate grievance seems related to a demand that two Muslim women, allegedly held against their will in Egyptian Coptic monasteries, be released.
When Iraqi forces attempted to free about 120 parishioners who had been taken hostage, the terrorists - who had already shot dead some of the churchgoers - detonated their suicide vests and grenades, slaughtering at least half the congregation.
Islamic Terror continues: Politicians Play chesse and Sip Tea with the same islamists that taunt us!!!!!!!!!!!
ByIbby Zaky
During the last few years, western leaders have elected the easy road and attained a reputation of engaging with Islamists out of fear of confronting them or becoming subject to a fatwa.
They foolishly consider it is good tact to engage with Islamists from groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood, and now al-Qaeda. They do this with no concept of the all encompassing ideologies of Islam which includes lying to the infidels.

Is Egypt preparing the genocide on the Coptic Christians?
by sheikyermami on October 28, 2010
All the signs are pointing in the same direction: for years, the soldiers of Allah have been sharpening the knives to cut the throats of the Christian minority, Egypts original inhabitants. The constant attacks are all but ignored by the Western lame stream media, who carry water for Mohammedanism just like Al Jizz:
What better subterfuge than to accuse your enemy of what you yourself have engaged in for years? As far back as 1976, Coptic Pope Shenouda III noted that “there is a practice to convert Coptic girls to embrace Islam and marry them under terror to Muslim husbands.” Our own archives are full of seven years’ worth of stories of kidnappings of Coptic girls and women. Here’s one. And another. And another. And still another, where Muslims tried to claim the conversion of a priest’s wife.
The persecution of Egypt's Coptic minority is taking an ironic, and dangerous, turn: Islamist leaders are now projecting the worst traits of radical Islam onto Egypt's Christians. A psychological phenomenon first described by Sigmund Freud, "projection," is defined as "the attribution of one's own ideas, feelings, or attitudes to other people." As such, consider the following excerpt from this recent report:
Two Sundays ago, on Oct. 10, Pope Benedict XVI opened the Synod of Bishops for the Middle East. The synod participants joined the Holy Father for a solemn Mass to begin two weeks of discussions about the situation of Christians in the Middle East, a small minority that is getting smaller in many places.
Sudan is not part of the Middle East, but what happened in Khartoum that same Sunday morning illustrates the challenge of radical Islam faced by Catholics in the whole region, stretching from North Africa across the Arabian Peninsula and into south Asia.
Report links Mubarak to 'severe persecution' of Christians by Muslims
WASHINGTON — The Egyptian regime of President Hosni Mubarak is said to be inciting the Muslim majority against the nation's Christians.
A leading Middle East analyst asserted that the Mubarak regime has facilitated what he termed "severe persecution" by Muslims of Egypt's Christian minority. Raymond Ibrahim, who lectures at the National Defense Intelligence College, said Egypt has transformed into the spearhead of the Muslim Brotherhood, which has intimidated the nation's estimated eight million Coptic Christians.

HAMBURG (Reuters) - Germany's inflamed public debate about Islam and integration risks serious overheating as politicians compete to make ever tougher statements criticizing Muslims immigrants they accuse of refusing to fit in here.
Improvement and Change in the Muslim World 'Can Only Be Attained Through Jihad and Sacrifice'
Muslim Brotherhood Supreme Guide: 'The U.S. Is Now Experiencing the Beginning of Its End'
In one of his recent weekly sermons, titled "How Islam Confronts the Oppression and Tyranny [against the Muslims]," Muslim Brotherhood Supreme Guide Muhammad Badi' accused the Arab and Muslim regimes of employing tyranny against their peoples, of avoiding confrontation with the Muslims' real enemies – the Zionist entity and the U.S. – and of disregarding Allah's commandment to wage jihad against the infidels.
Tower Hamlets extremist vote poses Ed Miliband's first big election test
A man with close links to Islamic fundamentalism and the backing of prominent racists could this week be elected as the executive mayor of a council, with almost total control over its £1 billion budget.

Lutfur Rahman was sacked by the Labour Party last month as its candidate for mayor of Tower Hamlets amid deep concerns about his links with a Muslim supremacist group, the Islamic Forum of Europe (IFE), and a number of powerful local businessmen.
For centuries, the Copts — Egypt's Christian, indigenous inhabitants — have been subject to persecution, discrimination, humiliation, and over all subjugation in their homeland (etymologically, "Copt" simply means "Egyptian"). In the medieval era, such treatment was a standard aspect of sharia's dhimmi codes, first ratified under Caliph Omar in the 7th century and based on Koran 9:29. Conversely, during the colonial era and into the mid 20th century, as Egypt experimented with westernization and nationalism, religious discrimination was markedly subdued. Today, however, as Egypt all but spearheads the Islamist movement — giving the world Sayyid Qutb, the Muslim Brotherhood, and Aymen Zawahiri in the process — that is, as Egypt reverts to its medieval character, the Copts find themselves again in a period of severe persecution.
I was born a Muslim and lived all my life as a follower of Islam.
After the barbaric terrorist attacks done by the hands of my fellow Muslims everywhere on this globe, and after the too many violent acts by Islamists in many parts of the world, I feel responsible as a Muslim and as a human being, to speak out and tell the truth to protect the world and Muslims as well from a coming catastrophe and war of civilizations.
An organized effort is underway worldwide orchestrated by a powerful Islamic political body to criminalize speech that "offends" Muslims. As much as that may sound like some fantastic conspiracy theory, these Muslim leaders broadcast their group's every move on their website—yet America's ruling elites refuse to listen.
The Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) is the second largest inter-governmental organization after the United Nations representing 57 member states which seek to criminalize speech that violates the archaic tenets of Sharia law.

For the Christians of Egypt stormy weather lingers on
by Ed Rizkalla
The Atlantic hurricane season in the United States usually spans the months from June to November. Most people, including the writer, do not care much for hurricanes and/or tropical storms, as their high winds and heavy rains usually bring about disruption and destruction, or at a minimum havoc and flooding. Last week the Eastern-seaboard of the United States suffered from tropical storm Nicole. The storm left in its wake about six deaths, flooding, and havoc on the highways for motorists and delayed flights for travelers. The storm however brought much needed rain for the Eastern-seaboard. Most of the Eastern-seaboard has suffered from a dry spell, which turned the green color of many lawns into parched yellow.
Information available to experts on international terrorism indicate that Bosnia Herzegovina is presently one of the epicentres of extremist Islamic circles in Europe, as it represents a hub for potential Islamic terrorists – the so called “white” or “European” Al-Qaeda .
I shall never forget that very sad morning in September nine years ago, when Arab-Muslims committed their Manhattan and Washington, D.C. Gazwa, leaving about three thousand innocent people murdered. "Gazwa" is an Arab term used to indicate a successful attack upon the enemy or an invasion of enemy territory.
$100 million Saudi dollars are available for the building of a Mosque near ground zero. That money is not available if the price of oil is $25 per barrel instead of $70 per barrel. Billions of Middle East dollars are buying media interests around the world to influence people’s perception of Islam. That money was not available in the early nineties when oil was $25 per barrel. The simplest and most cost effective way to stop the spread of radical Islam (and Islam in general) is to reduce our dependence on oil, period.
In the December 29,03 issue of Al-Ahram (the official Egyptian Newspaper) a disturbing piece of information, which could mean nothing to the uninformed about the Middle East, but its dangerous magnitude should not, by any means, be ignored.
It says that Egypt is proposing 2 Billion Dollars to open a branch of Al-Azhar in Philippine.
Al-Azhar is the most prestigious Islamic University in the world. It was founded in Egypt and still there.
It is operating as an educational (Islamic) institute.
Copts are not allowed to join, even though they pay taxes which cover the Al Azhar University’s costs, imam’s salaries, building’s renovation and additions…etc.
