ذكرت وكالة الجزيرة للأخبار السبت 17/3/1427 هـ - الموافق15/4/2006 م أنه : " أدانت الولايات المتحدة الأميركية الهجمات على كنائس قبطية في الإسكندرية أسفرت عن مقتل شخص واحد وإصابة خمسة آخرين بجروح، وحثت واشنطن كلا من الأقباط والمسلمين في الإسكندرية على التسامح والهدوء.
وقال المتحدث باسم الخارجية الأميركية شون مكورماك إن "هذا العمل غير مقبول .. وسنطلب أيضا من الحكومة المصرية مواصلة جهودها لنزع فتيل الموقف بما في ذلك توفير الأمن الفعال لكل أماكن العبادة ودعوة الناس من كل الطوائف إلى الامتناع عن القيام بمزيد من أعمال العنف والتحريض".
من ناحيته أدان الأمين العام للاتحاد العالمي لعلماء المسلمين الدكتور محمد سليم العوا في تصريح للجزيرة هذه الهجمات، وعبر عن تعازيه ومواساته لأهالي الضحايا وحذر من الانجرار لفتنة طائفية لا يستفيد منها سوى أعداء مصر.
"الحكومة المصرية قالت إن مختلا عقليا هاجم كنيستين في المدينة ما أسفر عن مقتل قبطي واحد وإصابة خمسة آخرين بجروح.

وطالب العوا من القاهرة الحكومة المصرية بالعمل لمنع تكرار هذه الهجمات.
كما أدانت الكنيسة القبطية الأرثوذكسية في لبنان بشدة الاعتداءات في بيان وزع في بيروت، داعية الروابط والمجالس اللبنانية المسيحية إلى لقاء تضامني مع الأقباط اليوم في بيروت
 

Man With Knife Attacks Egypt Worshippers

ALEXANDRIA, Egypt -- A man with a knife attacked worshippers at two Coptic churches in the northern Mediterranean city of Alexandria during Mass on Friday, killing one person and wounding five before he was arrested, the government said.
The Interior Ministry identified the attacker as Mahmoud Salah-Eddin Abdel-Raziq and said he suffered from "psychological disturbances."
The attacks came on what is Good Friday to many of the world's Christians, although Egypt's Copts _ and other followers of the Greek Orthodox church _ mark the holiday a week later.
Earlier, police officials said three men had been arrested in four simultaneous church assaults, one of them foiled by police. They said 17 people were wounded, and one later died.
There was no immediate explanation for the discrepancies between the reports. In the past, the government has tried to play down incidents that can be perceived as sectarian in nature so as not to inflame tensions between the Coptic minority and Muslim majority.
"This morning, a citizen attacked three worshippers inside the Mar Girgis Church in al-Hadhra with a knife and then fled and went into the Saints Church, where he attacked three other worshippers and again fled," the ministry statement said.
While he was trying to enter a third church, he was stopped and arrested by police, the statement said.
It said one of the worshippers died of his wounds. The semiofficial Middle East News Agency identified the victim as Nushi Atta Girgis, 78.
Abdel-Raziq "suffers from psychological disturbances," the Interior Ministry said.
About 600 angry Copts, mostly young men, gathered to protest the attacks in the Sidi Bishr neighborhood, outside Saints Church. The area was ringed by about 200 riot police, and truckloads more were nearby.
"Stop the persecution of Copts in Egypt," read one banner.
Coptic Christians, who account for about 10 percent of Egypt's 72 million people, complain of discrimination in getting jobs, particularly in senior levels of government. They generally live in harmony with the Muslim majority, although violence flares occasionally.
"Hosni Mubarak, where are you? State security is between us and you!" some chanted.
Nearby, bloodstains could be seen on the top step of the church.
Government and church officials were trying to restore calm.
"We are trying to calm the situation after many of our youth started protesting," said Father Augustinos, who heads the church where the attack was foiled. "We are telling them to calm down. It doesn't do any good for the country to make protests. We want to live in peace and tranquility but these are people who had their family members killed or wounded. We are doing our best."
Abdullah Osman of the ruling National Democratic Party said party officials and legislators were also doing what they could to ease the situation.
Coptic Christians account for about 10 percent of Egypt's population of 72 million and generally live in harmony with the Muslim majority, though violence flares occasionally.
Egypt's last sectarian clashes were in Alexandria in October, when Muslims attacked churches and shops over the distribution of a DVD of a play deemed offensive to their religion. Four people were killed in weeklong riots.

Islamieten steken christenen neer in kerk Egypte
ALEXANDRIë - In de Egyptische stad Alexandrië is vrijdag een koptische christen doodgestoken. Zeker vijf andere gelovigen raakten gewond.
Volgens het ministerie van Binnenlandse Zaken ging het om één dader die bij twee koptische kerken toesloeg. Het ministerie probeerde de antichristelijke aanslag te bagatelliseren door te verklaren dat de man geestelijk gestoord zou zijn. Hij was overmeesterd toen hij een derde kerk wilde binnendringen.
De politie en ooggetuigen hadden eerder gemeld dat het om meerdere daders zou gaan. De mannen, bewapend met messen, schreeuwden „Allah is groot”.
Het zou de eerste antichristelijke aanslag in Egypte zijn sinds een golf van islamitisch geweld in de jaren negentig

********************************

Today, Islamic terrorists attacked Christian worshippers in Egypt. They killed two (one of them is pictured above) and injured 17. The attackers were ranting: “Allah Akbar or Allah is great” and “I sacrifice my life for Muhammad” as they lynched their victims. Now you know why I think Muhammad is the reason for the misery that plagues Egypt. Now you know why I think that Islam is the real danger in our world. Now you know why Muhammad’s teaching constantly inflict pain on my Christian people in Egypt. Now you understand why I am angry so much with Muslims in Egypt and why I do not believe there is such thing as “moderate Muslims.” Imagine the widespread demonstrations in America if the KKK lynched an African American. Muslims are not protesting and are not speaking out against these fascists. They are in denial and accusing the attackers of being mentally unstable. Why Muslims are silent? Because their religion tells them it is okay to do that.
