Thanks for the ping. I think it is becoming evident that the family, with the exception of the youngest members, was probably active in attempting to bring the plight of the Coptic Christians in Egypt to our attention, engaging in discussion both on a chatsite as the father did, plus at school, where the sixteen year old daughter has been reported as having 'strong views' - add to that the translator services provided by a relative at the current trial of the lawyer who is accused of passing messages to the blind sheik, and you have a marked family.
'Marked' by whom?
Remember this; such action (retribution) is not taken without a fatwa...there's an imam behind this evil deed.
May be a bit naive....are all murders the result of an Imam's specific fatwa....or can some be just the action taken by a generally issued fatwa? Any one know?
