Christian Aid Watch

has a sequel to our earlier post about the attacks on Coptic Christians in Egypt – attacks which were reported on Al Qaeda sites before they made the BBC site.

It’s worth quoting in full:

Only last month, the port city of Alexandria saw some of the worst sectarian disturbances the country has ever seen.

This is from the BBC’s ‘Arab affairs analyst’ Magdi Abdelhadi, comenting on the Egyptian government’s attempts to rein in the Muslim Brotherhood’s inflammatory rhetoric (read it here).

Let’s run through those ‘sectarian disturbances’ again, shall we? As reported by… the BBC.

A Muslim man stabbed a Coptic Christian nun. Then a couple of days later 5000 Muslim extremists tried to storm a Coptic church, and in the course of pitched battles with the police three of them got themselves killed.

But I bet the nun was acting really disturbingly.
