Egyptian state TV admits false reports of soldiers' deaths, used to incite
Muslims against Copts
As the army plowed armored personnel carriers into the crowd of protesters,
state television worked to incite Muslims to "protect the army" from the
Christians, and mobs of Muslims took to the streets to attack anyone they
suspected of being a Christian. The abuse was compounded even in death as death
certificates were falsified with causes of death such as "cardiac arrest caused
by fear."
Future aid to Egypt should be in jeopardy over the massacre and over these
developments. Rewarding Egypt through inaction invites more of the same
behavior. "Egypt state television admits to making up news over soldiers'
deaths," by Manar Ammar for Bikya Masr, October 15:
CAIRO: Egypt's state television announced on Monday that there are no
deaths among the military forces after previously reporting there were during
the bloody Sunday clashes between the military and Coptic protesters, saying
that it was the fault of the news presenter.
State TV, also known as Maspero, is under fire from rights activists for
falsely reporting that the Coptic protesters attacked the military forces with
weapons, which resulted in the death of at least three soldiers and the called
on the Egyptian people to take to the street to help protect the armed forces.
"War is deceit."
The news, when reported on Sunday evening, agitated many Muslims, who took
up arms and went to the streets of downtown, clashing with protesters, both
Muslims and Coptic Christians, injuring dozens in the worst sectarian violence
since the fall of ousted President Hosni Muabrak's regime.
State TV also reported that the protesters were armed and initiated the
violence that killed the soldiers, which escalated the bloodshed late on Sunday.
The Copts who were marching and demanding justice for the burning of a
house of worship in southern Egypt last week, were shot at by the military upon
their arrival at the state TV building by the military.
Videos posted online show armored vehicles running over people, killing and
injuring scores of them. Eyewitnesses told Bikyamasr.com at the protest that
Copts were "not armed" and the army was "not provoked to attack."
International media outlets largely reported on Sunday night Cairo what
state television was reporting.
That was the idea. They knew it would be picked up in the international press.
