Protecting minorities puts makes them your firm supporters. Sisi needs all the internal support he can get.To the jihadists he is a hopeless apostate for overturning their tiumphant sharia state. He cannot get support from that quarter no matter what he does. So he protects minorities and looks to the West, Israel and the USA.

“Enough of them” is a much higher percentage than of other populations. While killing them you need to deny them resources. Were the West serious about beating back the current Islamic Wave it would cut off all commerce with Moslem countries and would colonize the oilfields and pump them purely for their own profit.

This is a direct result of Trump’s trip. Thank you Mr. President.

I assume your talking about the Luxor massacre. When the Muslim Brotherhood briefly ran Egypt they made a politician from the terrorist group behind that the head of the tourism ministry.

Not joking.

“...colonize the oilfields and pump them purely for their own profit.”

And when the cries about “blood for oil” echo across the land, they would simply smile and say, “Yes. And you’re welcome.”

10% hunh?.......that’s 9.2 million people. About half them are male so say 4.6 million males. Probably only about ten % of them will fight so voila!......there’s 460,000 Coptic fighters that should be protecting their women and children and old folks.

Why not?

It seems ridiculous for Coptic Christians to expect Muslims to protect them from Muslims.

So, somebody is fixing to tell me that Coptic’s don’t believe in fighting. Well, if that’s the case, somebody needs to tell them stop trying to walk on water.....it won’t work!
