Relatives of the Coptic Christians beheaded last month by jihadists in Libya – their deaths immortalized in a gory video set against the backdrop of a Mediterranean beach – are facing new extremist-Muslim violence as they seek to build a church to honor their murdered loved ones.
An angry mob in the Upper Egyptian village of Al Our – the proposed site of the church because it was home to 13 of the 21 Christians murdered in the mass “beachfront” decapitation – descended on the community’s current church after the midday Islamic prayer Friday and chanted that they’d never allow construction of the new place of worship to begin, witnesses told Egyptian activists in the U.S.
Disgusting. Even "moderate" Egypt still persecutes its Christian minority, which actually long predates the Muslim population.

Didn't this happen over two months ago?
Just like Obama said, the world has never been more tranquil.
Islamophobia and Obamaphobia surge in 3...2...1...
Is there anything wrong with pointing out very real instances of global jihadist committing violence?
Muslims lined up to form a human shield for Christians in that very country on several occasions. But blanket condemnation continues.
Evidence?

What, your right-wing bloggers didn't tell you about it?
And on several occasions for over the last 1000 years they have killed Christians.
I found an article in the Huffington Post but that was it... I am asking for some evidence and you are playing insult and partisan hack games against an Independent?
If that's all you found, you didn't really look. Don't hide behind that "independent" nonsense. An "independent" would have looked further. Six seconds on google will find you a hundred links. You didn't do even that.
Because you don't want to hear about things like that. Why, I wonder, is that?
I found hundreds of links and almost all were blogs and facebook. I found stuff like this:
Egypt's Muslims support Coptic Christians on religious holiday - CNN.com
Christians on guard as Muslims Pray - CNN iReport
But that is not about human shields.
Why would you make such an ignorant and stupid statement? Of course I would love to see Muslims and Christians getting along and helping each other. Take your idiotic partisan bull**** somewhere else and apply it to some hack instead...
Here's some Christians protecting Muslims

And some Muslims protecting Christians
Thousands of Muslims form "human shield" to protect Christian neighbors - National practical spirituality | Examiner.com
From those wonderful liberal hack sites. Oh wait.
Or these guys, who definitely want to lie about such a thing:
Nigeria: 200 young Muslims protect Christians from attack | Christian News on Christian Today
And Christians have killed Muslims. And Muslims have killed Muslims. And Christians have killed Christians.
But for some reason, the blanket condemnation only gets aimed at one religion. People like you scoff at the notion of a moderate Muslim. People like you demand that Muslims speak out against the vile acts of ISIS and their ilk. That happens, all the time, but it's never good enough for you. Muslims go to war against ISIS and their ilk, but it's never good enough for you. Muslims are killed by the thousands by ISIS and their ilk, but people like you still think the broader Muslim community supports them. A billion Muslims killed nobody yesterday. You don't give a ****.
They aren't equivalent, you are seeking to muddy the waters here-Christians are repeatedly and consistently targeted the overwhelming number of times.
And people like you think it's the books that are responsible.
What do you mean people like me? Seems like a personal attack, which suggests your argument has failed.
My argument? Seems like a personal attack? :roll:
You know, since we can't actually refer to other people here. That's an attack. I'm so terribly sorry I offended you personally by saying "people like you." What an outrageous attack on your person. Is there anything I can do to repair your hurt feelings?
...Zero.
You feel that it the 'right wing' who are against the murder of innocent people practicing their religion and the 'left wing' who is indifferent and wants to downplay Islamic violence? That's an insight most leftists don't get.What, your right-wing bloggers didn't tell you about it?
