Release Update A
Warm Welcome to US President’s Visit to Egypt: A Car Bomb Explodes
in Front of the Virgin Mary Church in Cairo. Egypt’s
Health Minister Determined to Call the Army to Kill Pigs and the Livelihood of Christian Copts Inciting
Hatred and Violence on the Rise against Egypt’s Christian as False
Fear of H1N1 Intensifies If this
is Not Islamic Terrorism what would it be called? The announcement of President Barack Obama’s visit to Egypt seems
to be unwelcomed by the regime. The regime and its alliance of
terrorists expressed their rejection of the intended trip by President
Obama to Egypt. The attack was reported by some news agencies. Assyrian
International News Agency reported that “a car bomb exploded next to
the Virgin Mary Church in Zeitoun, Cairo. The explosion occurred minutes
before a wedding celebration. Egyptian law enforcement arrived on the
scene and sealed off the area. Various people were held in the Church
for interrogation and some arrests were made.” The announcement of the
trip was made by Mr. Robert Bibbs, the White House Press Secretary, on
Friday, May 8, 2009.
MR. Gibbs said “I think the issues of democracy and human
rights are things that are on the President's mind, and we'll have a
chance to discuss those in more depth on the trip”.
Apparently, Mr. Gibbs’ statement regarding human rights issue has
scared the regime’s leadership, NDP, Mubarak’s Party, the Muslim
Brotherhood, and Jihadists. Their bloody message came in Iraqi fashion:
a car bomb. On
the front of killing the Pigs owned by Coptic Christian Farmers, the
Health Minister, Hatem Al-Gabaly, threatens to call for Egyptian Armed forces to compel
Christian farmers to give in their pigs voluntarily for killing. So far,
not one single case of H1N1 Flu has been confirmed in Egypt. Last week,
the media kept spreading fear among Muslims about Swine (Pigs) Flu,
despite no reports of infected cases. According to Arab Jerusalem,
a Newspaper based in London, “on the past few days the regime has
already used the Army against Christians.” But the armed forces did
not mobilize all energies yet.
In interviews with some satellite channels, the Health Minister
announced that two Egyptians suspected of contracting the virus came
from Germany, got sick, and are in quarantine for medical examination.
Nevertheless, the government’s media keeps feeding Muslims with fear
and hatred of the Pigs and Christian Coptic owners to intimidate and
incite violence against them. The call by Mr. Gabaly about the use of the Armed
Forces against defenseless and peaceful Christians must considered
terrorism. Instead of fighting the deadly Liver disease
Hepatitis C in Egypt, which kills thousands of Egyptians every year, the
Health Minister wants the army to kill pigs and the livelihood of the
Copts. According to the Medical Writers’ Circle on August 2006, the estimated
adjusted national prevalence rate of severe Hepatitis C infection is
7.8% of Egypt’s
population, or 5.3 million people in 2004 (American Journal of
Gastroenterology, 2006). Currently, this number may be as high as 7
million people in Egypt. According to Egypt’s government, that the
authorities have killed ,22,000 healthy and uninfected Pigs, until now. These facts clearly show the evil intent of the
Mubarak regime represented in his Health Minister’s Terror statements. More violence and hatred against Christian Copts
came out from Al-Azhar. The same Arabic Newspaper reported “there is
an agreement between Al-Azhar’s Grand Sheikh Mohamed Sayed Tantawi and
the Mufti Ali Gomaa, to cancel the collective prayers and worship
fearing the Swine Flu. The Declaration to abolish the collective prayers
will be in effect, as soon as the World Health Organization, WHO,
declares level six of the H1N1 threat.” The
exaggeration and enlargement of the fear of the H1N1 Flu is used to
cover up the regime’s failure to stop Hezbullah and Iranian
infiltration and influence. Such influence is spreading and expanding
quickly among Muslims, who look at Mubarak as a traitor, especially
after the war in Gaza, as well as attacks on Christians. Obviously, Mubarak’s regime is unqualified in
helping make peace in the Middle East. His terrorist regime is involved
in committing crimes against humanity.
It is clear the regime thrives on making trouble, not peace, to
survive. Unfortunately, the silence of the White House and
the US government is interpreted by Mubarak’s regime as a green light
to press ahead with its terror campaign of persecution against the
indigenous Christians of Egypt. The American Coptic Union will not stop calling on
President Obama to halt Mubarak’s campaign of genocide to uproot Copts
from their own homeland and hold him personally responsible for these
crimes. Now it is the responsibility of the President of
United States of America, Barack Obama, Secretary of Defense, Robert
Gates, and the US Congress to prevent Mubarak from using the Army in
such barbaric fashion. Recently, the US has approved $1.3 Billion as
military aide to Egypt. ACU is seeking the following from President
Obama, and US government: First, this military aide should be suspended
immediately, unless the regime retreats from using these weapons against
native Egyptians. Second, American Coptic Union is calling for
President Obama, to make the Human Rights, and Freedom of Religion the
core part of his speech to the Islamic World from Cairo |

Immediate Release President
Mubarak Insists to Kill All Pigs in Egypt Despite the calls on Mubarak to reverse the decision to kill all pigs in Egypt, the execution of his order will be in effect on Saturday, May 1St. 2009. According to Reuters, on April 29,
2009, the
U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization's chief veterinary officer called
Egypt's order on Wednesday to cull all the country's pigs “a real
mistake.” There
is no reason to do that. It is not a swine influenza; it is a human
influenza," said Joseph Domenech, adding that the FAO had been
trying to reach Egyptian officials but has so far been unsuccessful. A similar opinion was reported in Times online, in UK,
April 29, 2009, reads the following, “Dr
Fukuda said WHO experts - including doctors in Mexico and the US - had
been meeting via teleconference to build up a scientific profile of the
virus, which tends to provoke a relatively mild illness consistent with
seasonal influenza infection.” The same source reported that “taking
a different tack in the battle against the disease, President Mubarak of
Egypt ordered the slaughter of up to 400,000 pigs in his country, which
belong to and are eaten by Egypt's large Coptic Christian minority. The
move left Christian farmers, many of them poor slum-dwellers, up in
arms. The
American Coptic Union has accused the Mubarak regime, and President
Mubarak personally, of targeting the Coptic Christians, and seeks to
intensify the economic strangulation on them. The intent to kill all
pigs to hurt Christian Copts was set more than a year ago. The
conservative writer, Rod Dreber, in his blog, beliefnet.com, on April
29, 2009, supported the view of American Coptic Union. “If
not bigotry, then at least hysteria. Egyptian authorities have ordered a
mass cull of that nation's swine as an antiswine flu protection measure.
Trouble is, all the pigs are farmed (understandably) by the nation's
Coptic Christian minority which, unlike the Muslim majority, does not
see the animals as unclean. There is no public health reason for
Egypt to kill these 400,000 animals,” Dreber said. Egyptian
Copts are severely pressured by the Mubarak regime as a part of his
terror campaign against them. If Mubarak’s order is achieved, poverty
among the Copts will dramatically increase their suffering and may
create a huge humanitarian crisis. On
behalf of Egyptian Copts in Egypt, the American Coptic Union is seeking
immediate intervention from President Obama, his administration, and the
US Congress to reverse President Mubarak’s decision. |

Director for International Religious Freedom To
: All Foreign Affair Congressional Members As part of Mubarak regime economical strangulation campaign against the Egyptian Copts, the called People Council, “parliament” has seized the Swine Flu outbreak to pass a legislation to kill all Pigs. The poor Coptic families heavily rely on Pegs on their food, and income. Almost all Pegs Farms are owned by Copts. According to Islamic teaching, eating pork is not allowed for Muslims, it’s one of great sins. The call for Pigs’ execution in Egypt had already started more than two years ago, by some Muslim fanatics, and extremists in the People Council. Such involve members include, Mustafa Al Bakry, the publisher of Al Asboa Newspaper, and Mustafa Al Fiqy, a ranking member of the Council, and the president of Council, Fathey Sorur as well. Few months ago, the official TV station, Al Massria has led a campaign against Pig Farms owned by Copts to be shut down, seeking more economical suffering for tens of thousands of Coptic consumers, and businesses. So far, there is no evidence that Pigs are mainly responsible for the Swine Flu. In addition, there is no one single country in the World calls for exterminating Pigs, except in Egypt, where the regime and its fake people Council economically target the Coptic Christian. Finally the American Coptic Union seeks the US government swiftly and decisively act and stop such racism against the captive Egyptian Copts, and speaking to Egypt’s government for the Revoking the recent legislation. |
