A mob marched nuns through the battle-torn streets of Cairo like prisoners of war in the latest outrage against Egypts Christian minority.
Sister Manal, principal of a Franciscan school in suburban Cairo, watched for six hours as a mob looted the building, knocked the cross off the gate and replaced it with a black banner resembling the flag of Al Qaeda.
The classrooms were then burned to the ground and the women taken away, attracting a crowd of abusive onlookers.
Police told Sister Manal that the nuns had been targeted by hardline Islamists, convinced that they had given Muslim children an inappropriate education.
We are nuns. We rely on God and the angels to protect us, she said. At the end, they paraded us like prisoners of war and hurled abuse at us as they led us from one alley to another without telling us where they were taking us.
Siblings Wardah and Bedour, two Christian women employed by the school, also found themselves having to fight their way through the mob while being groped, hit and insulted by the extremists.
So far two Christians have been killed since the military-backed government moved against protesters calling for former president Mohamed Morsis reinstatement.
And dozens of churches, homes and businesses owned by Christians have been attacked and razed to the ground.
I am terrified and unable to focus, said Boulos Fahmy, the pastor of a Catholic church a short distance away from Manals school. I am expecting an attack on my church any time now.
And Bishop Ibram, head of the local Coptic Orthodox church, said he had instructed Christians and clerics not to resist the mobs of Islamists to try and avoid any loss of life.

Such brave men.
And as Obama said (paraphrasing): When things get ugly, he’ll side with the Muslims. Well, things are getting pretty ugly now. Notice how silent Obama is?
Typical knuckledragging savages... when facing overwhelming power by an enemy, they turn and attack those who pose no threat to them.
Gawd, I hate them with every fiber of my being.
Calling All Crusaders!
This is the LAST STRAW!!!
BOMB THE SOB`s to shreds!!

Surely the military must have snipers that would take out the mb memebers?
A question of tactics. Copts and their institutions are being destroyed. Copts are fleeing Egypt. It would seem this is the time to praise the Lord and pass the ammunition. The Army Chief has pledged support to rebuild destroyed Cairo churches and is moving forcefully against the MB. Now is the time to fight IMO.
I had a neighbor who lost his leg in WW II fighting in the North African desert campaign. His description of the natives there was; “They were a bunch of cut throats and thieves”. Looks like nothing has changed. Culture, ya gotta love it.
RE: Now is the time to fight IMO.
Does Egypt have something equivalent to our Second Amendment?
Muslim Brotherhood supporters marked the Christian stores with a black x. Flashbacks to Jews in Germany and Kristellnacht, the Night of the Broken Glass, where marked Jewish businesses were destroyed.
Catholic ping!
9th Century knuckledragging savages can only be successfully defeated by other 9th Century knuckledragging savages. We are being “lead” into an era of all against all.
It seems the world has been too peaceful since the fall of the Soviets and that religious and race warfare is filling in the gaps.
The muslim brotherhood has to be exterminated.. EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!
No idea, but AKs seem to be everywhere.
“Calling All Crusaders!”
Richard the Lionheart was within spitting distance of Jerusalem ready to take the city when Jerusalem’s Christian knights talked him out of it saying, “After you leave we will still be here and will have to live with these people (the Muslims.)”
Lionheart walked away. Had he finished the job, things might have been different.
Time to finish what the first crusaders began.
There won’t be a war as war is commonly defined. Instead, day after day we will lose more and more freedom to the invading infestations of subhuman savages until there is no going back.
Unfortunately, most Americans have their heads up their a$$ and won’t even notice. Until Two and a half men is taken off the air and replaced with videos of beheadings, stonings, and church burnings.
The last straw was in September, 2011. I have no more ‘last straws.’
There was the London train bombing. The Madrid train bombing. The Bombay bombing. Daniel Pearl’s murder. Margaret Hassan’s murder. Boston marathon bomber. All my straws are long gone.
In a sane world, the civilized countries would force back into their hell holes all the subhuman, uncivilized murdering savages and keep them from leaving.
These are lower than the bacteria that eat dead dung beetles that eat camel dung from sick infected camels.
