ibn Misr <http://www.sonsofapesandpigs.org/> on January 13, 2008 Followers of the most merciful strike again. <http://www.sonsofapesandpigs.org/monasteryabufana2.html> monasteryabufana.jpg With the systematic bombing attacks on churches in Iraq, attacks on churches in Egypt are still the best offerings for Allah. A devout Muslim mob attacked yesterday the Abu Fana Monastery, in the city of Malawi, province of Menia, in Upper Egypt for the second time in less than two weeks. In a phone conversation with father Mina Abu Fana, one of the monks of the Monastery, he stated that "this attack follows a January 1, 2008, attack by a Muslim mob that kept firing on the Monastery for two hours before the police arrived. The officer in charge acted in a demeaning way towards the monks and let the attackers leave without arresting anyone or filing any charges." He also said the non action by the police when Christians or churches are attacked sends a signal to the fanatics that they can continue their attacks with impunity. And that's exactly what happened, father Mina told us, twenty armed Muslims surrounded the <http://www.sonsofapesandpigs.org/Monastery62.html> Monastery6.jpg monastery and forced their way inside firing on monks that were trying to defend the Monastery. One monk was injured and eight monks cells were destroyed. The attackers then entered the church and burned several priceless rare Coptic icons of Jesus, one of the monasterys church doors, several Bibles and vandalized, looted and destroyed part of the church interiors. According to Archaeologists, the Monastery of Saint Abu Fana is one of the oldest Monasteries in the world, and considered a rare archaeological treasure from the fourth century, when it was built, with priceless Icons and frescoes dating back to the same period. Our purpose for reporting this to our readers is not just to highlight a terrorist attack by the followers of the religion of peace on a Monastery in Egypt. Which many in the West may consider, after all, very remote to them and away from their security or comfort zone. Viewed just as a local attack on Copts, having no effects beyond that. But this is not the way Mohammads soldiers look at it. And it only proves that Westerners thinking along those lines dont grasp the far reaching strategy of the jihadists for the sake of Allah. You should never forget that every Muslim, including moderates talks and think always in terms of the Islamic Umma, which mean the Islamic Nation. This is not a term invented by Louis Farrakhan, but a term coined by Mohammad himself. The other fact that you should equally remember, is the total symbioses and connectivity between jihadists all over the world. More so now, thanks to internet and the communication technological revolution, that virtually eliminated distances and empowered everyone to reach anyone at the other corner of the planet instantly. No one more than jihadists is taking advantage of that. Besides the fact that Egypt is the home of the infamous Muslims brotherhood organization which have members (implanted) established in every Western country, with a big base in America let alone the world. All Sunnis Jihadists, starting by El Qaeda and Hamas, are offshoots of the Brotherhood, as it is referred to. So what all this have to do with what seems to be an isolated attack on a Monastery in Egypt? You might ask. Well, its only isolated to you because you dont wear the Islamic magnifying glasses, and you dont think in terms of the Umma. Follow me. The attack on the WTC was not meant to be the destruction of just two tall buildings, but the destruction of the Western worlds Capitalism Altar. A symbol of American and Western achievement and one of the most identifiable American landmarks. During Christmas celebrations of 2000, <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strasbourg_cathedral_bombing_plot> four Algerian members of El Qaeda plotted to bomb the Strasbourg Cathedral, in Strasbourg France. Known as not only one of the most beautiful Cathedrals in Europe, but one of the symbols of Christian Europe with its unique 12th century Gothic style. Whats the interest for (Muslim) El Qaeda to destroy a Cathedral? After all, Strasbourg is not located in The Great Satan America, and no Western leader couldve been more pro Arab than Jacque Chirac, Frances president at the time. In June 23, 2002, Islamic terrorists linked to al-Qaeda <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bologna_Cathedral> plotted to destroy Bologna's 14th century Basilica of San Petronio in Italy. It is the fifth largest church in the world. <http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2002/06/24/wfresc24.xm l> The organization, headed by an Algerian, had contacts with Muslims in Bologna, Milan, Rome, Naples, Britain, Holland and Belgium. Again, why a Basilica? In August 2003, Imam Samudra, is said by police to have not only confessed to masterminding the Bali attack, but to <http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/2499193.stm> playing a role in church bombings across Indonesia in the last two years. Again, Why churches? The list of Churches bombed and burned in every country where Muslims are dominant is too long to list here and never ceased. Is this a new phenomenon invented by El Qaeda or a bunch of hijackers of the great religion? When we go back to the Arab conquest of the Middle East, the birth place of Christianity, thousands of churches and Monasteries were destroyed and looted, especially in Egypt, Palestine, Syria and Iraq . Their columns, domes and stones were used to build mosques. If you ever visit El Azhar mosque in Cairo and El Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, youll see crosses on the top of the columns and the domes. These are just two famous examples out of thousands. Thats besides the great churches that were transformed to mosques like Santa Sophia in Istanbul which used to be the center of Eastern Christendom, and Saint John the Baptist Church which is the Omayyad mosque in Damascus now, just to name two Christian historical landmarks. What they didnt loot and destroy, they just stole it all. Al Aqsa mosque was built on top of the ancient Jewish <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_in_Jerusalem> Temple on the <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Mount> Temple Mount. The site of the Mosque originally contained a Christian church built by the Emperor Justinian in the 530s and consecrated to the Virgin Mary by the name of Church of Our Lady. When Jerusalem came under the control of Muslims in 638, <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caliph> Caliph <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umar_ibn_al-Khatt%C4%81b> Umar ibn al-Khattâb (580-644) entered the building and started praying, reciting the Koran. Thereby Umar converted the building into a mosque. Why building a mosque on top of a Christian church and the ancient Jewish Temple site? The most holy place and symbol for Jews, and the most recognized historical witness of the roots of the Jewish people in the land of Israel? in 1004, the Fatimid Caliph <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Hakim_bi-Amr_Allah> Al-Hakim bi-Amr Allah ordered the destruction of churches, the burning of crosses, and the seizure of church property. Over the next ten years thirty thousand churches and Monasteries were destroyed, and untold numbers of Christians converted to Islam simply to save their lives. On October 18, 1009, he ordered the destruction of the <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_the_Holy_Sepulchre> Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, along with several other churches including the Church of the Resurrection, the most sacred place for Christians all over the world. These measures were part of a more general campaign against Christian places of worship in Palestine and Egypt, which involved a great deal of other damage: Adhemar of Chabannes recorded that the church of St George at <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lydda> Lydda ' with many other churches of the saints' had been attacked, and the 'basilica of the Lord's Sepulcher destroyed down to the ground'. Again, Why Churches? in 645, Muslim army led by Amr ibn al 'Aas sacked the city of Alexandria and asked the caliph Umar what to do with the library of Alexandria, the ancient world's single greatest archive of knowledge, and received the response "...if what is written in them agrees with the Koran, they are not required; if it disagrees, they are not desired. Destroy them therefore.", and thus burned the books to heat bathwater for the soldiers. In 1456, Athens fell to the <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ottoman_Empire> Ottomans, and the <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parthenon> Parthenon was converted into a mosque, a minaret was added to it. When independent Greece gained control of Athens in 1832, the visible section of the minaret was demolished from the Parthenon and soon all the medieval and Ottoman buildings on the Acropolis were destroyed. Why the Parthenon? An enduring symbol of ancient Greece, and one of the Western worlds greatest cultural monuments and symbol of Western civilization. Again, these are just sample examples of systematic destructions by Muslims since the start of Islam. Two days ago, a <http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/worldnews.html?in_artic le_id=507760&in_page_id=1811&ito=newsnow> terror plot to blow up the Eiffel Tower was uncovered. This is not the first attempt. In January 2005, French intelligence officers arrested three French-born Algerians suspected of plotting to blow up the Eiffel Tower. Again, why the Eiffel Tower? and why France? The most Arab friendly Western country, host to at least six million Muslim Arabs, the largest Muslim population percentage wise in the Western world. Whats the common thread between a 4th century Monastery in Egypt, Churches in Iraq, the WTC, Landmark Churches in Europe, the Church of the Resurrection in Jerusalem, the ancient Jewish Temple site, the Library of Alexandria, the Parthenon, Santa Sophia, Saint John the Baptist of Damascus and the Eiffel Tower. Very simple, its the continuity of the systematic destruction, embedded in the teaching of Mohammad, since the start of Islam for the elimination of all visible symbols of the Judeo-Christian roots and civilization. As well as all historical and modern Western cultural symbols identified with that civilization. It shouldnt be any surprise to anyone if tomorrow, Notre Dame de Paris, The Sacred Heart in Montmartre, The Louvre, Versailles, The Paris Opera, The coliseum of Rome, The Statue of Liberty in Ellis Island or any other Western Landmark would be destroyed and turned to dust. There is so much to do for Mohammads believers that they hardly know where to start. They also know that perseverance and dedication pays, just like the WTC, If at first you dont succeed, try again. The 4th century Monastery in Egypt, is not only a historical Christian treasure for the Christians of Egypt, but a symbol of the roots of Christian history. No one better than Muslims know the significance. Egypt was the birth place of Monasticism that was started by <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_the_Great> Saint Anthony. Also know as Anthony the Great (c. 251 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/251> <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/356> 356), Anthony Abbot, Anthony of Egypt, Anthony of the Desert, Anthony the Anchorite, Abba Antonius and The Father of All Monks. Muslims already destroyed most of the symbols and roots of the Judeo-Christian civilization in the Middle East. Thats what they call their Islamic civilization which should be translated to Islamic destroy-ization, and they pay very generously their lackeys in the West to propagandize it. But where were all the moderate Muslims during all those 1400 years of destructions? You may ask again. Brilliant question that deserves a brilliant answer, thats why you should ask your politicians and pundits. Other than that; my guess is as good as yours. Now, theyre well on their way for the elimination of all visible signs of Western Civilization and culture in your own territory this time. That destruction wouldnt be complete without changing the skylines of all Western countries. With thousands of erected Minarets broadcasting the call of prayers Allah Akbar to remind you of the wrath of Allah 17 times a day. Thats the number of times they recite El Fatiha (the start of the prayers) , <http://quran.al-islam.com/Targama/DispTargam.asp?nType=1&nSeg=0&l=arb&nSora =1&nAya=1&t=eng> Koran 1:6,7: "Show us the straightway, The way of those on whom Thou hast bestowed Thy Grace, those whose portion is not wrath (like the Jews), and who go not astray (like the Christians)." [emphasis between comas are from Islamic interpretations] Next time you look to a minaret, remember, it is the tombstone erected over your own civilization, culture, freedom, lifestyle and maybe your life, period. As Wafa Sultan said with Islam, its not a clash of civilization, its a clash between civilization and barbarity. I can add, Its a clash between life and death . The day will come, with grave consequences, when all Western populations will realize that the real danger does not come from the terrorists, which a calm, resolute people can cope with. It comes from their Western leaders, politicians and elites special interests linked to the sparkle of petro-dollars. But who elected those leaders and politicians? It is not you?
