Bombing in Egypt a warning to us

Let us be sensible. Islamic terrorism is a threat to our national security. Many people will assume that the horrific bombing of a Christian church in Egypt is of no concern to us, but it is.

The two Associated Press reporters attempted to mitigate the killing of Christians in Egypt. Does anyone know that Egypt used to be a Christian country? Yet the reporters say that the Christians in Egypt “feel they are targeted.” Are they kidding? Feel? How about know? They are systematically murdered for being infidels.

Hosni Mubarak “blames foreigners,” so if the Islamic terrorist is from Saudi Arabia, it doesn’t count? How ridiculous. The reporters say that al-Qaida “does not have a significant presence” — how do they know? The Muslim Brotherhood is a major terrorist group in Egypt, they are all working together to eliminate Christians and Jews.

The naive reporters’ statement that some group in Egypt “does not advocate violence” is a suicidal tendency to deny the facts. Eventually we will have bombings of churches here in the United States. We embolden the terrorists by ignoring them, and they in turn feel that they can increase the violence. Have you noticed the increase of homegrown terrorists born the U.S.?

The “best” of the article states that the violence in Egypt is different since it was a “serious bombing.” When is a bombing of innocent men, women and children not serious?

Just like Columbine, we should have a day of mourning at all of our schools. During the day we need to teach our children that Christians and Jews are being targeted around the world by Islamic terrorists. Finally, we need to honor the brave U.S. military that protects us from such atrocities, at least for now.
