From reader Huda N. (not her real name) in Egypt:
Two days ago a police officer mounted a train coming from Upper Egypt to Cairo, searched the train for Christians and shot 6 of them while screaming Allah Akbar 3 times. One was killed and the other five were wounded. You know what did our goverment say, that he is mentally unstable. You know what else the people in the streets were stoning the ambulance that carried them to the hospital and they stoned the hospital itself for trying to save Christians.
The incident is documented in news accounts:
it's absurd to contend that Muslims who kill in the name of Allah are madmen acting outside the strictures of Islam when such incidents are repeated on a weekly basis somewhere in the world or other. We have to face up to what Islam is.
Look how some of these reporting organizations tried to sugarcoat it. The Washington Post doesn't even reference the train event in the headline. And the Washington Post article contains this egregious attempt to blind the public to the dangers of Islam:
It was not immediately clear whether the gunman knew his targets were Christians.
In order to make that attempt to blind the public stick, the article completely omits that the gunman shouted "Allah Akbar," which by now everybody knows means the shouter is a Muslim who is going to attempt to kill non-Muslims specificially because they are non-Muslim.
The MSNBC article, while not identical to the Washington Post article, contains the identical attempt to blind the public, in the same words:
It was not immediately clear whether the gunman knew his targets were Christians.
Both articles cite AP as the reporting organization. AP, the Washington Post, and MSNBC are seeking to keep the public in the dark on the greatest danger to freedom of our time.
Headline: Egypt Churchgoers Return to Services After Bomb
Reader Huda N. (not her real name), has contributed to this site previously. She emails:
we are very sad in Egypt, we are not having any celebrations. The Qada still threatens with more bombing on churches. There were attacks on Iraq and Nigeria at the same time, but the Egyptian attack was the worst. If you see how the bodies were torn and how people were they looking for their loved ones amidst parts of bodies. You should all fight the spread of Islam in your countries.
Huda sends this poem:
Hear me screaming
One ear of dough, one ear of mud
Keepers of freedom defenders of right
Hear me screaming, hear me call out
Because of my fate, because of my God
They threaten to kill me, and shed my blood
Uprooting from my land is their original plot
With God at my right, they shall succeed not
Hear me screaming, hear me call out
My heart is bleeding for my dead sons
A religion of peace, is what is claimed
A monster that feeds on victims he maimed
Hear me screaming, hear me call out
You fold your arms, and nothing is done
Today is our turn, tomorrow your turn will soon come
