"We're really blessed in this country to have the Judeo-Christian tradition of wanting to love each other and help each other have better lives and to enjoy life and be good to each other. As opposed to the tradition of some Islamofascist localities where they do the reverse - sending their own children off to be blown up."
The Big Picture, 4/29/04.

    Feelings in Egypt in the Wake of the Deadly New Year’s Mass Bomb Attack on a Church

    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
