CAIRO, Egypt - Worshippers at three Christian churches came under attack from knife-wielding assailants during Mass Friday. Police said one worshipper was killed and more than a dozen wounded in the simultaneous attacks in the northern city of Alexandria. Police were searching for three men, one in each attack. Hundreds of Christians gathered in angry protest outside the Coptic Christian churches, and witnesses said clashes erupted between Christians and Muslims. Initial police reports said a total of 17 people were injured: 10 at the Saints Church in downtown Alexandria and three at the nearby Mar Girgis Church. A third attacker wounded four worshippers at a church in Abu Qir, a few miles to the east. One worshipper was killed and at least two others were in serious condition, a police official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press. The attack comes on what is Good Friday to many of the world's Christians. However, Egypt's Coptic Christians, and other followers of the Greek Orthodox church, celebrate the holiday a week later. Coptic Christians account for about 10 percent of Egypt's population of 72 million and generally live in harmony with the Muslim majority, though violence flares occasionally. In October, Muslims attacked churches and shops in Alexandria over the distribution of a DVD of a play deemed offensive to their religion. Four people were killed in weeklong riots.

This is a photo of their Islamic prayer sessions?
As Muslims get stronger this will repeat itself more often.
They are only doing what their book tells them to do.
Religion of peace? Thats a joke. After they kill off all the infidels , they will start killing off each other. We have already seen that in Iraq and other places.
Thy breed to become strong, They kill for power.
"Hey Boosh!!...Why not you swing by and bomb us on the way to Iran??"
MSNBC=NBC. Makes you wonder why they pulled that NASCAR stunt when they have these real world examples.
The money we spend at the gas pump goes to the Saudis, who spend the money on Madrassa hate schools. Very little is spent of Universities or Hospitals.
The Saudis just endowed Harvard with a fully paid Professor of Islamic Studies to promote "tolerance".
They are lecturing us on tolerance???
I have heard Islam described as a religion of Death. It celebrates death, killing, and Marytrdom.
Give credit where credit's due. . . Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, Turkey were all once Christian stongholds.
They've been killing Christians for centuries.
Tolerance of them? ha!
Tolerance is the novacaine before the surgery.
Their intentions are violent and real.
The tolerance lullaby will be our sleep unto death.
Yes, ROD, the Religion of Death wishes you peace this Easter.
They're probably hoping that NATO will come bomb the Christians if they resist the Muhammedan terrorists effectively enough.
Do you notice how close together their eyes are?
If the moozies are so insecure about a competing religion they must have some very serious doubts about their own moonbat practices.
