COPTS RELEASE VIDEO OF MASS RIOTING, DESTRUCTION OF CHURCHES AND BIBLES, FEAR IMPENDING ETHNIC CLEANSING OF CHRISTIANS IN EGYPT

By Michael Ireland
Chief Correspondent, ASSIST News Service

UNION CITY, NEW JERSEY (ANS) -- Fearing a repeat of the recent riots against the Coptic Church in Alexandria, Egypt, which left four dead, more than 80 wounded and seven churches defaced, leaders of the Coptic church in the United States are calling on the U.S. Government and the United Nations to take immediate action to stop the bloodshed and destruction of churches.

Exclusive video footage released by the International Christian Union (ICU) and American Coptic Association (ACA) (ICU/ACA) today, on http://mychristianblood.blogspirit.com reveals the destruction of the Assemblies of God Church for Evangelical Copts in Moharam Bek, on Friday, Oct. 21.

An e-mail report from Dr. Monir Dawoud, president of the ICU/ACA, obtained by ANS says: "We are receiving numerous reports that extremist Muslim groups are planning to surround the Alexandria churches again on Friday, Oct.28, and at the end of Ramadan on the following Tuesday, promising the death of Christians and the continued destruction of churches throughout Egypt."

Dawoud faults the security forces for encouraging violence by first "giving the green light to the mob," and then failing to control the resulting riots. "If the momentum of the riots is allowed to continue, the crowds will be impossible to contain," Dawoud said.

More than 5,000 Muslims demonstrated outside of the Alexandria Coptic Orthodox Church last Friday (Oct. 21) to protest the production of a drama staged at the church two years ago. The protestors said the play blasphemes Islam. According to recent statements by the Coptic Church, however, the play does not defame Islam.

"Copts and other minorities in Egypt are continually subjected to physical and verbal harassment by extremist Muslim groups. Yet we do not destroy their houses of worship or call for bloodshed," said Amgad Zakhari, one of the youth leaders with the ICU/ACA.

In addition to the protests, the Egyptian newspaper, El Fagr, published threats made by Muslim radicals against the Coptic Pope Shenouda III.

According to this report, Muslim radicals publicly announced their threats through mosques in the outskirts of the city of Alexandria and were calling for the death of Pope Shenouda in revenge for an alleged insult to Islam's prophet.

The ICU and the ACA are planning a demonstration in front of the UN next week to protest the persecution of Christians in Egypt.

France - Islamists threaten to shoot down airliners with SAM-18 missiles from Chechen mafia
Le Figaro via Babelfish translation ^ | October 28, 2005 | Jean Chichizola

Posted on 10/28/2005 2:49:38 AM PDT by HAL9000

TWO GROUND-to-air MISSILES of Soviet manufacture, of type SAM 18, imported into Europe remain untraceable. Acquired in 2002 by a group of French and Algerian islamists near the Maffia tchetchene, these weapons are in the center of a terrorist project aiming at cutting down a civil aircraft near an airport of the Hexagon. Until now, Bruguière judge, who inquires into this cell of radical islamists, suspected them of having prepared attacks chemical or bacteriological in Paris. But the testimony of a high person in charge for Al-Qaida held in Jordan revealed that this group involved in Tchétchénie had other criminal projects.

French ISLAMISTES would intend to make attacks against civil aircrafts in the Hexagon and would have gotten for this purpose two ground-to-air missiles in Tchétchénie. It is only the last bounce of the judicial enquiry of judge Jean-Louis Bruguière on the dies tchetchenes, one of richest and most complex of these last years.

Already suspected of preparing chemical or bacteriological attacks with toxic substances, like cyanide, botulinic toxin or ricine, these militants also has criminal projects against the French airports. If a great part of them were challenged by the DST between 2002 and 2004, some individuals have escaped with the hauls. And no one does not know today if the missiles of the type SAM 18 assets into 2002 were destroyed, carried in other countries European or quite simply stored some share in France for a future attack.

Information is all the more worrying as it emanates from the testimony of a high person in charge djihadist imprisoned in Amman (Jordan) and recently heard within the framework for the French judicial enquiry. This Jordanian, Adnan Muhammad Sadik alias Abou Atiya, is a close relation of its Zarqaoui compatriot, head of Al-Qaida in Iraq. He was especially his representative in the Caucasus. Of these years 2000-2001, and particularly after the fall of the talibans and the end of the Al-Qaida camps in Afghanistan, the role of Abou Atiya consisted in taking again the torch to accomodate the djihadists and to take care of their drive. Once their formation achieved, the recruits set out again in their countries of origin or formed dormant cells in nearby States like Turkey or Azerbaïdjan.

Among much of volunteers of the four corners of the world, Abou Atiya accomodates thus in 2001 a group made up of French and Algerians. A part of them are veterans of Afghanistan. The majority took part in the project of attack against the cathedral of Strasbourg at at the end of 2000. Some have even bonds with those which wanted to make jump the airport of Los Angeles earlier one year. The Jordanian head ties a relation privileged with the Algerian Said Arif. Born in 1965 in Oran, this lieutenant of the Algerian army, which chose the desertion, remained in the Afghan Al-Qaida camps. After having escaped with the police forces German and French, it takes refuge in the Caucasus.

The islamists free-Algerian dream only of one thing: to return to Europe to strike. They intend to make use of all the means at their disposal: toxic products but also of the missiles. A batch of SAM 18 Igla (switches) is acquired on the black market via the Maffia tchetchene. More powerful than SAM 7 Strela (arrow) from which they are derived, Igla are not difficult to find in this vast supermarket of the armament which is the old Soviet Union. Once acquired, SAM would have been sent in Europe via Georgia and Turkey. The cyanide followed the same road and arrived to France.

Veterans of Afghanistan

The terrorists prepare their projects then, hesitant between targets symbolic systems (embassy of Russia, police stations) and attacks bloody (department stores, Eiffel Tower...). When the DST challenges large troop in Courneuve and Romainville at at the end of 2002, it finds a fusing. It will still have to be waited months so that the assumption of a chemical attack is specified. But not of trace of missile.

However, in February 2003, two months after the haul of the Parisian suburbs, and just a month after a British operation counters returned djihadists of the Caucasus, the London airport of Heathrow is placed in red alert. According to information collected on the other side of the channel, islamists were on the point of drawing on a plane with the landing or takeoff. And the "pipe" obtained by the famous service of British against-espionage Mr. I5 announced portable ground-to-air missiles "come from the continent".
