Did these muzzies kill these Coptic Christians on a feast day of these people?

“........ before police shoot dead gunman”......

Why would the cops have to shoot an already “dead gunman”? Typical media writing.

The Coptic Church follows the Julian (”Old”) Calendar which is 13 days behind the Gregorian (”New”) Calendar.

Therefore today is December 16, if the attacks occurred Thursday that would have been December 15. December 15 is the feast of the Hieromartyr Elelfterios.

On the new calendar December 28 was the Feast of the 20,000 Martyrs of Nicomedia and today, December 29, is the Feast of the Holy Innocents (the children of Bethlehem slaughtered by the order of Herod).
