Op-ed: 
An Ever-Growing Christmas Nightmare 
By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

Christmas is fast approaching but the joyous season of lights, glittering trees, and children's wide-eyed wonder has been turned into the the stuff of nightmares not just in Israel but in Europe and now in Egypt as well.

First Israel...the Holy Land...the very land God gave to the Jews.

They think they can uproot us from our land. They will not succeed...Our guiding principle is that whoever attacks us and whoever tries to attack us will pay with his life.” So said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu...and rightfully so.

The Jewish State of Israel...which will remain the Jewish State no matter the U.N.'s wishes...is also home to millions of Christians...Christians who are free to practice their religion in the sacred land where Jesus was born. But sadly in today's Israel, Christmas and the days leading up to it seem to equate to just more days of terror being perpetrated on Israeli citizens...both Christians and Jews...by those who think they have a right to said Holy Land...by those known as Palestinians.

And like in too many Christmas's past, which included his placing added security at Christian churches, Prime Minister Netanyahu has basically been forced once again to take matters into his own hands to keep all Israeli citizens safe. Now making publicly known his seven key steps...steps he believes will help deter terror attacks by both Iranian funded Hezbollah and Hamas operatives living in Gaza and the Golan Heights...Netanyahu issued these steps while Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas still continues to blame Israel for what he called a “violent environment” and Israel's inciting violence against him. But these accusations are indeed quite laughable for time and actions have proven that it's the Palestinians who always... and I repeat always...start the altercations with Israel thus leaving Israel having every right to fight back.

And these seven steps are in direct response to both of last week's killings by Palestinian gunmen, the first where two I.D.F. soldiers were gunned down at a bus stop and to the drive-by shooting that not only seriously wounded seven Israelis outside the town of Ofra but also led to the death of a baby boy and his mother. Step 1: to accelerate demolition of terrorists’ homes; Step two: to ramp up efforts to apprehend the terrorists responsible for the latest series of attacks; Step 3: to increase administrative detention of Hamas operatives in Judea and Samaria; Step four: to reinforce IDF units in Judea and Samaria; Step five: to protect roads in Judea and Samaria with checkpoints; Step six: to place a cordon around El-Bireh; and Step seven: to revoke permits of terrorist family members and accomplices. 
 
Also, Netanyahu will “legalize thousands of homes” in Judea and Samaria that were built in “good faith” but have not yet been granted what's known as "formal legal status." And gaining that status would allow the residents the legal right to erect public, educational, and religious structures...as in may creches and Christmas trees that hopefully will now light up Judea and Samaria's night skies.

And while those once mostly dark skies do start to light up as Christmas fast approaches, the Israeli military will continue on with “Operation Northern Shield”...the very operation that is both "uncovering" and then "neutralizing" Hezbollah’s terror tunnels along the Israeli/Lebanon border. And that operation cannot and must not rest even for Christmas for while Hezbollah does not yet have the ability to produce “accurate weapons,” Israel knows well that as Iran continues to export their missile technology into Lebanon, factories are being built or restructured to turn that technology into accurate long-range “projectiles”...as in missiles...that Hezbollah has every intention of using against Israel no matter if her citizens killed be Christians or Jews.

And never underestimate the possibility of an “islamic surprise” reigning down on Israel on Christmas Day...maybe even on the Christian holy city of Bethlehem in the West Bank...for the islamists hatred of Christians is secondary only to that of the Jews.

So while Israel remains unwavering in its objective of keeping both Hezbollah and especially Iran as far away from the Golan Heights as possible...in fact as far away from Israel in general...Iran continues ratcheting up its hatred of both Israel and the U.S...the “Little Satan” and the “Great Satan” respectively...for how dare President Trump reimpose sanctions on them. And it's this newest round of sanctions that has caused Iran serious economic hardships as the rial's value continues to drop on the international markets along with critical oil production and sales plummeting, while at the same time the mullahs are facing the reality that the opposition groups are not just growing in numbers but in strength and solidarity as they rightfully see the mullahs themselves as Iran's enemy not Israel, not the Jews, and surely not Israel's Christian citizens.

So while Israel remains ever vigilant this Christmas season as they strive hard to make Christmas as safe, peaceful, and meaningful as possible for their Christians citizens, many countries in Europe are themselves awash in nightmarish Christmas demands that have them caving to those out to kill us all.

"The word 'Christmas,' a symbol of our faith and our culture, does not discriminate against anyone. Striking the emblems of Christmas does not guarantee anyone's respect, does not produce a welcoming and inclusive school and society, but fosters intolerance towards our culture, our customs, our laws and our traditions. We firmly believe that our traditions must be respected." So stated Milan politician Samuele Piscina last year.

As the muslim invasion of Europe shows no signs of abating and as its muslim population continues to grow while still not assimilating into the fabric of their host countries societies, muslims see it as their right to make demands to either have Christmas traditions and festivities secularized or done away with in their entirety, after all the joyfulness that is Christmas upsets their oh-so delicate islamic sensibilities. And it upsets them to such a degree that Europe is now caving out of fear for their safety...safety from the very people they so foolishly welcomed into their countries.

And Europe's dismantling of Christmas traditions started quite innocuously with the renaming of Christmas markets and such...replacing the word “Christmas” with “Winter” variations, as in for example the Amsterdam Winter Parade, Brussels Winter Pleasures, Kreuzberger Wintermarkt, London Winterville, and Munich Winter Festival just to name but a few.

By the way, America needs to take note of this seemingly small first step as it's already happening in our public schools and in our churches with similar replacement names for what used to be school and church Christmas pageants and celebrations.

But even more troubling for Europe than just the simple renaming of marketplaces is the second step...the actual islamization of not only Christmas but of both Jesus and Christianity itself. And with Europe's ever-increasing muslim populations ramping up their demands to tone down Christmas with its message of love and peace... which directly counters the qur'ans dictates of conversion or death...they are basing this upon the premise that Jesus of the Holy Bible is Isa of the qur'an. Yet nothing could be further from the truth for Isa (the supposed Arabic translation of Jesus' name) as per the qur'an is a muslim prophet not the Son of God or of God “incarnate”...both key tenets of Christianity. And while Isa is referenced by name 25 times in the qur'an, he is alluded to as the "Word" and the "Spirit" of God but not of being God himself...remember God to muslims is allah...to we Christians and to we Jews, God the Father not allah is the creator of us all.

So if islam's and Christianity tenets and doctrines don't match why not force a rewording of one to bring it more inline with the other...as in islamic beliefs. And so “Chislam” was born in Europe to basically keep Christianity in check while islam itself has time to grow unchecked. And like with simple renamings, “Chislam” sadly is making inroads into our country as well for the kumbaya sorts do not see the wolf hiding behind the islamists sheep's clothing.

And so with these first two steps in place but still not fully bringing Europe to her collective knees, the nightmarish images of bloodshed that is Israel's ever constant reality is now becoming Europe's as well as Christmas themed marketplaces are seeing not only killings by islamists increasing but a drop in attendance out of fear..."killing two birds with one stone" if you will. And it started two years ago when a Tunisian born muslim drove a hijacked truck into a busy Berlin Christmas market killing 12 people injuring 48 others with the aftermath being both the locals and tourists feared going to said market.

And just last week three people died and 12 others were critically wounded in France when Cherif Chekatt, a known islamist, opened fire at Strasbourg's famous Christmas market forcing French officials to put the country on increased alert for possibly more terrorist attacks...again striking fear into the hearts of the French people as attendance at Christmas markets is dropping there as well.

So now with both Israel and Europe on high alert as Christmas draws near...and as islamists relish in manipulating their collective fears...Egypt too...an Arabic country...also sees its Christian population not just fearful but outright terrorized.

There is no Christmas for us...the moment Maggie was taken to the hospital, the clock just stopped.” So said Samir Abdo whose 10-year old granddaughter was murdered last year by a suicide bomber while she was attending pre-Christmas services at St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in Cairo.

Just a short month ago islamic militants affiliated with ISIS...militants who vowed to go after Egypt’s Christians (Coptics) as punishment for their support of President el-Sissi... ambushed three buses carrying Coptic Christians on a pre-Christmas pilgrimage to the Saint Samuel the Confessor monastery in Minya province...a remote desert monastery south of the Egyptian capital of Cairo...killing seven people and wounding 19 others, all but one members of a single family. And that attack was the second to target Christian pilgrims heading to said monastery in as many years with the first attack occurring in May 2017, leaving 28 people dead.

And an attack on December 11, 2016 on the Saint Peter and Saint Paul church (which is commonly known as El-Botroseya)...which held Christmas markets of sorts...killed 29 in the heart of Cairo. Also, eleven people were killed last December 29th when a suicide bomber blew himself up inside St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Cathedral complex in Cairo proper, doing so no matter that the church was being guarded by police in the days leading up to Orthodox Christmas celebrations which were to take place the following week.

The days leading up to Christmas was then and remains now a very dangerous and worrisome time for Coptic Christians in Egypt.

So with Egypt now joining Israel and Europe as being on high alert as this Christmas draws near...the beauty that is the Christmas season has been stolen from many by those whose goal is not just simply to do harm but to strike fear into the very hearts of Christians everywhere for to islamists the Christians will be next after they annihilate the Jews...or so they think. And with what now has turned into a nightmare of contriteness will unfortunately continue on as long as good people everywhere bow down and cater to the wishes of those who, like I previously stated, are out to kill us all.

Op-ed:  
Failures on the international front and the media remains silent 
By: Diane Sori

While the alphabet media has been focusing their attention on spoiled brat Justin Bieber, Michelle's 50th birthday nonsense, overpaid drugged-out sports figures and Hollywood trash...the Middle East is smoldering as Barack HUSSEIN Obama continues to fuel the flames that even Egypt getting its first snow in over 100 years cannot put out...sarcasm intended.

"It is the Assad regime's responsibility to transport those chemicals to facilitate removal. We expect them to meet their obligation to do so,"

- Obama mouthpiece Jay Carney

And so yet another...of many...Obama failures on the international front has come to pass as Syria to date has surrendered less than 5% of its chemical weapons and will miss next week's deadline to send its stockpile abroad for destruction as they agreed to last September. Now almost two months behind schedule, Obama's red line to Syria has just been buried in the sand...so to speak...as the deal that stopped him from launching bombing raids against Bashar al-Assad's government forces seems to be falling apart...just like all the Middle-East deals that have the mark of Obama on them.

Syria agreed to turnover their chemical weapons under strict time guidelines, and while some were surrendered, only two cargo shipments have left the port in Latakia, each carrying about 15 tons of said weapons totaling just 4.1% of the roughly 1,300 tons al-Assad reported to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) when the deal was reached.

Obviously, al-Assad is stalling in turning over those weapons (you know the very same chemical weapons that Saddam Hussein moved to Syria), but when you come up against the man who leads from behind...if you call what Obama does leading...al-Assad holds the upper hand for just like the Iranians who manipulated the deal reached in Geneva to their advantage...al-Assad has done the same. Knowing Obama will NEVER hold true to his word to bomb or re-sanction them if they dare to violate said agreement, I could also safely bet that in the end NOT all the weapons will be turned over as Obama's continued talk of giving diplomacy more time actually gives al-Assad the chance to 'hide' some weapons away. This weakness in Obama will be used to al-Assad's advantage.

And as al-Assad laughs at and plays Barack HUSSEIN Obama for a fool what of Egypt... Obama's ultimate Arab Spring fiasco. A few days ago Obama's good buddy...ousted Muslim Brotherhood puppet President Mohamed Morsi...was in court charged with participating in and possibly being one of the masterminds behind a prison break that involved more than 20,000 inmates during Egypt's 2011 revolution which removed Hosni Mubarak from office. Morsi and131 co-defendants, including senior Muslim Brotherhood leaders, are being charged with trying to “destroy the Egyptian state and its institutions."

Hmmm...shouldn't Barack HUSSEIN Obama be charged with the same thing here in America...I mean he did basically render Congress irrelevant and politically impotent in his State of the (Dis)Union address...and that translates into his destroying our system of checks and balances as he crowned himself king on national television. It's just too bad Boehner and the rest of our cowardly and spineless Congress doesn't see that. But I digress...

In addition to the prison break charges, Morsi also faces four different sets of charges relating to the killing of opposition demonstrators last November, and charges in relation to espionage and insuring the judiciary. And in the time since Obama's compadre was hauled off to jail, Egypt has seen the worst bloodshed in recent memory as Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood supporters and foreign (as in al-Qaeda) terrorists conduct an ever-growing number of attacks on both the country's security forces and on Egypt's Coptic Christian population...which by the way I hear NOT a peep about from our 'supposed' Christian president. Thankfully, the Egyptian military has been cracking down big time on these subversives under the banner of a "war against terrorism"...a war Barack HUSSEIN Obama basically turns a blind eye to...especially (I believe) being a terrorist in his own right...Muslim Brotherhood supporter...and maybe card-carrying member...that he is.

And adding insult to injury, Obama must be besides himself as former British Prime Minister Tony Blair (himself NOT fond of Obama) recently announced his support for Egypt's new military interim government and strongly urged other world leaders to do the same. And after meeting with those military leaders, including newly anointed Field Marshal Abdel Fattah el-Sisi...the very man who led the overthrow of Morsi...Blair is in full support of el-Sisi becoming Egypt's next president. And el-Sisi becoming president...which most expect he would become...is just icing on the cake for el-Sisi cannot stand Barack HUSSEIN Obama and rightfully blames him for aiding in Morsi's running amok.

And now in addition to the Middle East there are increasing tensions between the U.S.and Russia. All Reagan had accomplished in ending the Cold War, Barack HUSSEIN Obama has heated up again, as recently come to light was a story that the U.S...as in Obama...has informed our NATO allies that Russia tested a ground-launched cruise missile. Testing of this sort was prohibited by the 1987 treaty banning medium-range missiles that was signed by Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev, yet Obama and his people couldn't wait to stir the pot with Russia, especially since Vladimir Putin of late has emasculated Obama countless times...both in public and in writing (remember his letter to the NY Times). During the Bush years, Putin tested NOTHING of the sort, possibly out of a combination of fear of reprisal and respect for President Bush as a leader of men. But now with Obama in office, Putin knows Obama talks he'll do this or he'll do that...just look at Syria for example...but it's all talk and NOTHING more as Obama is weak of character and backs down time and again when challenged, always saying we need to give diplomacy more of a chance.

Yeah good old kumbaya diplomacy...just look how well diplomacy has NOT worked out anywhere in the world where Barack HUSSEIN Obama...or Hillary 'What Does It Matter' Clinton or John 'Swiftboat' Kerry...has had a hand in it. Now with Obama at the helm of the U.S. once former allies shy away from us for fear he will stab them in the back just as he did and continues to do to Israel. And thanks to Obama's total ineptitude as an international player, much of the world now sees America as “weaker, less significant, and more or less confused.” Remember, pre-Obama, the western nations rallied behind the U.S. when it came to international matters...just look at all the nations who stood behind GWB when we went into Iraq...but Obama is a laughing stock that is easily played by our enemies simply because they know that he does NOT have America's interests at heart.

And as the saying goes, "elections have consequences" but now in today's volatile world those consequences affect NOT only our country but the nations of the world as well... consequences built and owned by Barack HUSSEIN Obama himself. But hey, let's focus on spoiled out of control teenage pop singers, drug addicted sports figures and Hollywood wannabes, and the woman who turned 50 but still doesn't seem to look at herself in a mirror before she goes out in public representing our country...after all, the alphabet media deems them the important news stories of the day.

Sad...it's all so terribly sad...

Op-ed:
Egypt at a crossroads and Obama abandons the call for freedom 
By: Diane Sori

While White House spokesman Josh Earnest continues to publicly deny that the US has cut off aid to Egypt, the office of Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT), the head of the Appropriations State and Foreign-Operations Subcommittee, claims that military aid to Egypt has indeed been temporarily cut off as the State Department admits that our government still has NOT delivered $585 million in Egyptian aid, about half of the total promised $1.5 billion aid package, for the fiscal year ending on September 30th.

Claiming that the Obama administration is reviewing its options in regards to Egypt, Leahy said that administration lawyers decided it was best “to observe the law restricting military aid on a temporary ‘day-to-day’ and ‘case-by-case’ basis” (by the way there is NO such law), deciding that the (non-existent) law did not require a public announcement on whether an actual coup had taken place (but acting as if it did)…which would have immediately required a cutoff in aid under our laws and has become a sticking point both here in the US and in Egypt itself.

Yet by suspending direct military aid…meaning weapons and certain types of economic aid…aid desperately needed to help the Egyptian military disband and bring to justice the Muslim Brotherhood…this most vile of American presidents has now allowed the door to be left open for the Muslim Brotherhood’s return if NOT to direct power to at least becoming an ongoing insurgency who will join ranks with al-Qaeda (and to some degree they already have) and try to turn Egypt into a failed state.

And if that happens, Barack HUSSEIN Obama built it and owns it.

Remember also that Obama recently canceled the joint US/Egyptian military exercises that had been set for next month (exercises desperately needed because of the rise in violence in the Sinai Peninsula, an area critical to keeping the peace with Israel as laid out in the Camp David Accords), and that the Pentagon, on Obama’s orders, has held up the transfer of the remaining promised F-16 fighter jets to the new temporary Egyptian government but had NO problem sending them to the Muslim Brotherhood ‘puppet’ government of Mohamed Morsi.

And so this man has once again shown his true colors as to where his loyalties lie…for they lie NOT with the Egyptian people and the Egyptian military who are trying to rid their country of those who expound sharia law under a strict islamic doctrine…Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s loyalties lie with the very group destroying Coptic Christian churches all across Egypt shouting ‘allah-hu akbar' as they do so.

And now with the Egyptian military announcing that they’re NOT only going to protect the Coptic Christians but rebuild every Coptic church burned and destroyed by the Muslim Brotherhood (which will NOT only assure Christian support for the military, which they already have for the most part, but will also send a powerful message to western Christians that the military is indeed the protector against radical islam), our so-called ‘Christian’ president is turning his back on what should be his Christian brothers, and is going to stop supporting the Egyptian military simply because they’re in control and NOT his beloved Muslim Brotherhood.

I guess it’s ‘once a muslim always a muslim’…and NO attending Mr. G-D America’s church for 20 years will prove otherwise.

And all this proves that Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s foreign policy in regards to Egypt…in fact in regards to the entire Middle East…is tantamount to his voting ‘present’ while in the Senate…as in this man has NO clue whatsoever of the damage to the cause of Egyptian freedom he's doing or if he does he just does NOT care. This man and his misguided policies are turning Egypt into another Iran of sorts...the kind that would make Jimmy Carter proud...and that is dangerous and sad indeed, because he still will NOT admit that islamic terrorism is the root cause of all the problems.

And make NO mistake that the Egyptian military is fighting islamic terrorism (‘islamic terrorism’… two words Obama will NEVER say let alone admit to existing)…terrorism of the worst kind for it’s in-your-face terrorism…announced with fanfare as in the Day of Rage, and executed to inflict as much carnage and death as possible (weapons were found at the two sit-ins that were dismantled and destroyed by the military)…terrorism of the kind that is the hallmark of al-Qaeda.

In fact, and something NOT generally known is that the military has already arrested and taken into custody the brother of al-Qaeda chief Ayman Al-Zawahri.

But…but…Obama said al-Qaeda is NOT in Egypt…that al-Qaeda is on the run…clueless…totally clueless.

And the military under General Abdel Fatah al-Sissi is trying to roundup and arrest as many of the Muslim Brotherhood and other terrorist leaders (including al-Qaeda leaders) as possible in an effort to reign in both the violence and rising death toll for they know that if a country has a large radical islamic population then the only government that can keep a semblance of stability is having the military in control, because it’s been proven time and again throughout the Middle East that a secular democracy as we know it and radical islam cannot and will NOT ever be able to exist peacefully together.

And that’s why Barack HUSSEIN Obama needs to butt out of Egypt’s affairs for the last thing Egypt needs right now as they're on the cusp of freedom is an islamic terrorist supporter telling them what they must do to run their own country...especially since the Saudis, who are also against the Muslim Brotherhood, have promised to make up any aid to Egypt that Obama cuts.

And so the nightmare that is currently Egypt continues...

Op-ed:
Targeting Coptic Christians…and NO outrage from the man who claims he’s Christian

By: Diane Sori

Sadly, the violence continues as the chaos that is war is upon Egypt.

And the chaos erupted after Friday prayers as the battle began…a battle heralded in with the sound of AK-47s…a battle between the Morsi/Muslim Brotherhood supporters vs. government security forces.

And with that, the Muslim Brotherhood launched its so-called ‘Day of Rage’ (now stretched into a ‘Week of Rage’) as their answer to the government shutdown and destruction of their sit-in protest camps…camps where 638 of their supporters were killed and thousands were injured. But these fatalities and injuries are of their own doing for what you don’t hear from the media is the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood started the violence…started it as they try to NOT only reinstate Morsi as president, but also as they try to ethnically cleanse Egypt of its remaining Coptic Christian population.

And while at least for now the government security forces have stopped the Muslim Brotherhood from turning once secular Egypt into an islamic state, a long-term Muslim Brotherhood insurgency is most likely to become Egypt’s new reality. And the Coptic Christians are in even more danger than before as the military is being stretched thin, for now they’re forced to fight on two fronts…a front against the insurgency itself while at the same time trying to protect the Coptic Christians on another.

And hypocrites that we all know them to be, the Muslim Brotherhood continues to publicly bloviate that they condemn the attacks on the Coptic Christians…calling the attacks ‘barbaric’…by stating that Article 43 of the still-in-effect Morsi initiated constitution guarantees religious freedom…claiming that while they oh so conveniently forget that Article 2 of that very same constitution defines Egypt as a muslim state. And that means the constitution is still being interpreted through the tenets of sharia law…as in convert and subjugate to islam or die...for the Muslim Brotherhood’s goal has always been to restore the Caliphate and NOTHING less.

And towards their goal…that they still deny…of ridding Egypt of its Coptic Christian population, back on December 13, 2012, the rhetoric started as Muslim Brotherhood cleric, Dr Wagdi Ghoneim, appearing on Egyptian television, openly threatened the Coptic Christians with genocide.

Saying, “The day Egyptians, and I don’t mean the Muslim Brotherhood or Salafis, regular Egyptians, feel that you are against them, you will be wiped off the face of the earth. I am warning you now: do not play with fire.”

And guess what folks, this miserable excuse of a man was the imam at the Islamic Institute of Orange County California, until 2005…hmmm…I wonder if he and Barack HUSSEIN Obama ever crossed paths…wouldn’t doubt it …would you.

And almost immediately after Ghoneim’s statement came these words, also delivered on Egyptian television, by self-proclaimed imam and television preacher, Safwat Hegazy, “A message to the church of Egypt, from an Egyptian Muslim: I tell the church—by Allah, and again, by Allah—if you conspire and unite with the remnants (opposition) to bring Morsi down, that will be another matter.” (At this point he screamed “Allah-hu Akbar!” followed by chants of “With our soul, with our blood, we give to you, O Islam!”). ”There are red lines—and our red line is the legitimacy of Dr. Muhammad Morsi. Whoever splashes water on it, we will splash blood on him” (followed by more shouts of “Allah-hu Akbar!”).

And those words came from the same man who said just a year or so ago that, “Jerusalem belongs to us, and the whole world belongs to us…and that “every land upon which islam has set foot will return to us.” And if that’s NOT enough he also has said that, “we will kill everyone who has polluted the al-Aqsa Mosque.”

Pure statements of hate…statements made to start the wheels turning towards genocide NOT only of Christians but of Jews as well…and both these men are in the hierarchy of the Muslim Brotherhood and both these men are at the forefront of the current violence…stirring up the Muslim Brotherhood masses with these and other words of hate and violence.

And these are the people Barack HUSSEIN Obama wants in power in Egypt as he turns his back on the Coptic Christians. Deeming them a nuisance standing in the way of his wish for Morsi’s return to power, Obama has publicly chastising and called to task the Egyptian military for his perceived violence against his muslim brethren. Yet Obama forgets that the Christians have lived peacefully in Egypt from before the days when the pseudo-religion of islam was born…lived peacefully side-by-side with Egyptian muslims until this miserable excuse of an American president decided to help overthrow Hosni Mubarak, an ally to America and a secular leader who was basically neutral toward Christians and even Jews…letting them live their lives in Egypt in relative safety and peace.

Proving even further that Obama’s loyalties do NOT lie with what should be his Christian brothers, the fact is that in the days leading up to the protests to oust Morsi, Obama had US Ambassador Anne Patterson meet with the Coptic Pope to ask him to urge the Coptic Christians NOT to join in the publicly known upcoming protests against Morsi.

All this adds credence to something we’ve all known for some time…Barack HUSSEIN Obama is NO Christian. Sitting in a church…especially in Mr. G-D America’s church…listening to the vile words spewed forth in this church most assuredly do NOT a Christian make, especially when one was raised on and indoctrinated to the islamic tenets taught in a madras in Indonesia.

NO, this man will NOT side with the Coptic Christians…this man will do NOTHING to protect them…we can only hope and pray that he will do NOTHING to aid in their persecution.

And as weak and one-sided as Obama’s response to the events in Egypt have been, there’s also NO sign that Obama’s apathy toward the fate of the Coptic Christians in Egypt will ever become front page news here in America as the media continues to hide their plight…hides the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood will do all it can to if NOT kill them all outright will at least try to drive them out of their ancestral homeland.

But hopefully somehow the outrage felt by the American people (both Christian and Jew) will somehow be known to the Egyptian people…especially to the Coptic Christians…for we are anything but apathetic to what’s happening to them, as we stand united beside them in their quest for freedom and peace, and Barack HUSEIN Obama and his Muslim Brotherhood brethren be damned.

Op-ed: 
Some should NOT walk amongst civilized men 
By: Diane Sori

Egyptian Coptic Christians have become collateral damage…NO…they are being targeted for elimination…as secular Egyptian security forces battle supporters of ousted Muslim Brotherhood ‘puppet’ President Mohamed Morsi.

For days now, Christians churches have been under attack as the Muslim Brotherhood tries to turn Egypt into an islamic authoritarian state where sharia is the law of the land and islam must be practiced by all...practiced by all as the Muslim Brotherhood tries to achieve its true goal of cleansing the Middle East of all Christians and Jews.

Claiming they’re acting in response to government security forces breaking up two protest camps in Cairo’s Nadha and Raba’a al Adiwiya squares a few days ago, the Morsi/Muslim Brotherhood supporters are attacking and torching churches and Christian-owned homes and businesses all across Egypt, killing many innocents as they do so.

And even after interim President Adly Mansour declared a nation-wide state of emergency and a dawn to dusk curfew, these barbarians attacked and burnt to the ground at least 27 church buildings (including firebombing and burning the Mar Geergiss Church, the main Coptic church in the southern Egyptian city of Sohag along with other churches in the cities of Minya, Assiut, and Fayoum), and attacked a women’s-only monastery and two Christian schools. Thirty Coptic Christian-owned homes have been set on fire, along with many businesses, including the destroying of three Bible Society stores.

And just last week, a little 10-year-old Christian girl was targeted and killed while walking home from a Bible class at the Ahmed Esmat Street Evangelical Church.

So where is the outrage from our ‘supposed’ Christian president…from the media…where is it…there is none as the msm won’t even report on this, and if the newspapers mention it at all its buried amongst ads in the back of the paper, and Obama could care less for he supports and aligns himself with the very barbarians committing these acts.

But heaven forbid one (vile) mosque would be torched or one ‘supposedly’ innocent muslim child was killed…the media and Obama would be calling for blood revenge.

And it’s all so sad because under Hosni Mubarrak’s rule, Christians (who make up only around 10% of the population of 85 million) were safe, but in Morsi’s single year in power a chain of abuses against them were committed…abuses committed even after thousands fled the country soon after he took office. Examples of such are arresting and torturing Christian political opponents and any criticizers; trying to stop Copts from voting in last December’s constitutional referendum; tolerating the assault on Coptic Christianity’s holiest cathedral by islamic militants in April; and halting any and all investigations into the October 2011 Maspero massacre that left 30 Copts dead and 500 wounded.

And immediately before and after Morsi’s ouster his supporters bloviated over and over in a heated frenzy that it was the Christian minority who were the cause of all the protests that led to Morsi’s ouster. Fueled on and aided in this rhetoric…in this lie...by imans from all across Egypt who called for Christians to be attacked and killed, Morsi and his followers ran rampant with NO one stopping them.

That is until 34+ million Egyptians took to the streets in protest that is. Took to the streets to protest the demise of their personal freedoms, because Morsi replaced Sadat’s 1971 constitution (which replaced Egypt’s 1923 constitution) with a 2012 islamic shariah constitution which became irrevocable as Egypt’s new Supreme Law.

And thus the Morsi/Muslim Brotherhood supporters took to the streets to counter the pro-military protesters, all the while shouting their battle cry...“we will defend islam”...while attacking Christians, turning the Egyptian people’s cry for freedom into a (un)holy war of islam vs. Christianity with a bit of ‘death to all Jews’ thrown in for good measure.

And that is serious indeed for if the government security forces…the military…can’t secure the peace and Egypt falls and becomes a lawless failed state, then Israel faces extremely serious trouble for the Camp David Accords, which have kept the peace between Egypt and Israel for decades, won’t be worth the paper they’re printed on.

Remember back in May when Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh called on then President Morsi to ‘revise’ the Camp David Accords saying, “We ask Egyptian authorities to revise mainly the security articles of the Camp David Treaty even though not cancelling it,” and that “Zionists (Israelis) try to use the gap created by the treaty, which blocks the military presence in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula in order to de-stabilize Egypt’s security and damage Egypt- Palestine relations”.

Well, these words were spoken by a man who hates Jews as much or even more than he hates Christians, and points to the fact that if the Muslim Brotherhood were ever to resume power in Egypt…or even to share in power…that would assure that the Sinai Peninsula…an area already awash in guns, weapons, and terrorist training camps…would become even a worse breeding ground of hate where the rules of the game would be that both Christians and Jews were free for the killing.

And what is Obama’s response to all this…to the newest happenings in Egypt including the fact that yesterday Muslim Brotherhood supporters stormed and set fire to government buildings in Cairo. From Martha’s Vineyard…on yet another  vacation paid for by ‘We the People’…Obama held a hastily arranged press conference where his empty words spoken were that the US will cancel joint military exercises with Egypt in the wake of “brutal and deadly violence,” but he said nothing about cutting off foreign aid to Egypt.

“The United States strongly condemns the steps that have been taken by Egypt’s interim government and security forces,” Obama said. “We deplore violence against citizens.” And so it seems he only deplores violence done by the government forces against Muslim Brotherhood citizens but NOT a word was said about Muslim Brotherhood violence against Coptic Christian citizens …NOT a word.

Oh and lest I forget, Barack HUSSEIN Obama said he wants to be “a partner in Egypt’s future”.

I think Egypt can do very well without him for this man’s loyalties do NOT lie with the Egyptian people's wish for freedom for Obama's bloviating interference goes against the very outcome they're trying to attain.  And with him ignoring the slaughter of the Coptic Christians, it becomes in-your-face obvious that Obama is trying to manipulate the chaos in Egypt and turn it into results similar to those in Syria where the Muslim Brotherhood is thought of as 'freedom-fighters'…'freedom fighters' who just happen to be aligned with al-Qaeda…'freedom fighters' who are anything but yet who Barack HUSSEIN Obama is supplying US guns and weapons to...most in dirty under-the-table dealings...as in can you say 'Benghazi'.

And so Obama's treasonous actions continue, but this time the Egyptian people are on the receiving end of it with the Coptic Christians sadly suffering the most.

Op-ed:                                                                                                                          Allegorical circles, Egypt, Israel, and an impotent American Congress                                                                       By: Diane Sori 

Yesterday I was asked why I’ve recently been blogging about the happenings in Egypt when we have so many problems here at home and the answer to that is simple…what happens in Egypt could very well be the completion of the circle that acts as a catalyst for change here in America and helps assure Israel’s survival.

The disaster known as the Arab Spring has in NO way altered our interests in the Middle East for when all the bravado is stripped away it remains oil that fuels our Middle East policies for oil is the life-blood to which our government is addicted. Oil and terrorism…terrorism mostly bred and based in the Middle East spreading its hate and destruction all the way to our shores. Oil, terrorism, and weapons of mass destruction…WMDs existing in the Middle East that if perchance fall into the wrong hands will be NOT only used against us but will most assuredly be used against Israel.

Israel…where our moral obligations and commitments lie binding us to them even more so than where our religious commitments and loyalties lie for Israel is the only true democracy in an area of the world riddled with dictators, mullahs, and autocrats desperate for power.

A circle of oil, terrorism, and WMDs that starts in the Arab Middle East, keeps drawing America in, and ends in Israel. And the Arabs know that an America-Israel alliance exists for it’s Israel we exchange military doctrine with…it’s Israel we exchange counter-terrorism information and intelligence with…and it’s Israel that we turn to for technological aid in helping to solve some of the world’s most troubling technical and strategic problems.

Israel…the country America turns to and the country that turns in kind to America for support is the very country that is still trying to remove the knife Obama put in her back…a knife dug deep as he sides with his ‘brethren’ over Israel every chance he gets. And that is the reality of the Middle East today for if America does NOT support her allies and friends there is NO need for her enemies to make peace, thus allowing the Middle East to stay on fire.

And so the Middle East policies we have in place under this president most definitely need to be changed. In the past US allegiances in the Middle East depended on Arab governments whose policies did NOT reflect their citizens’ opinions…for we depended on and supported dictators but dictators who supported and were friendly to America and who at least tolerated Israel’s existence. And then the Arab Spring happened and those dictators fell to the people but NOT always to the ‘good guys’ as witnessed by last year’s events in Egypt now being corrected in ancient streets throughout their land.

But sadly for all involved with those NOT ‘good guys’ is where Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s loyalties lie…but NOT the loyalties of the American people. And that’s why Israel is the completion of the circle for if Israel falls America as a superpower will fall with her.

And so we would be wise to NOT engage in a struggle to hold back the Egyptian people from shaping their own destiny, and that means Barack HUSSEIN Obama must NOT get us involved in the internal struggle in a place we should NOT be… unless and only unless Israel’s survival is in jeopardy for Israel can hold the wolves at the door at bay if she knows America is there if she needs us.

This approach would be a major departure from policies initiated under Obama…policies where terrorism is tolerated as our enemies have suddenly and miraculously become our so-called friends…policies that have allowed an American president...America’s very own ‘enemy within’...to throw our true friends and allies aside. The ongoing events in Egypt speak volumes as does American support for Israel. Muslims hate America simply because the American people support Israel, and that hate in turn morphs into terrorism. Obama wants cooperation with bast*rds who hate Israel... who hate America…cooperation with bast*rds who hate both as much as he does.

And while we know that Arab governments do need to be more accepting of the wishes of their people and NOT just cater to the wishes of the religious extremists and zealots in their midst, we in turn then have to make our Middle East policies more accepting to the Arab people NOT just to the Arab rulers. But in doing so we must NEVER…I repeat NEVER…put the Arabs wants and needs before Israel and her need to survive as a Jewish nation.

And that brings the circle back to Egypt, a partner in the Camp David Accords, and the birthplace of the Muslim Brotherhood…all tied together and precariously held in place by a knot that’s coming undone thanks to Barack HUSSEIN Obama…the most traitorous of men.

Under Hosni Mubarak the Camp David Accords were honored and Israel was at peace with Egypt…Israel was safe and the Egyptian Coptic Christians were safe…beheadings were rare if at all. Enter center stage the Obama supported Muslim Brotherhood puppet President Mohamed Morsi and the Camp David Accords (where land taken in war was given back for peace) became tenuous at best under a new president who called Jews the spawn of pigs, and whose ‘soldiers’ slaughtered Coptic Christian children at whim while laughing at their cries echoing in the night. And throw in a dose of new found reality that Morsi and his Brotherhood kin had a hand in Benghazi…Obama and his brethren's bloody hands are all over Benghazi…and the circle joins in completion as the knot holding all together falls to the ground.

And all is exposed as Egypt is angry…Israel is on edge…and America stands by as Egyptians take to the streets to right an oh so wrong.  And sadly, America’s Congressional leaders impotently bow their heads in shame in fear of the race card being used against them, and so do NOTHING to expose the one who continues to fuel the hate smoldering on the surface of the Middle East...the very one who might be surprised that what the Egyptian people started just might have ignited a fire in the belly of 'We the People'...and that fire will come to a head in November 2014.
