Two Christian Children to be Tried for Insulting Islam in Egypt

"Attorney Karam Gabriel said anti-Christian hostilities in the restive country are getting worse as the two boys are to be tried in a court in Beni Suef – the same city where a mother and her seven children were convicted last month for reconverting to Christianity – for showing “contempt to Islamic religion and insulting the Koran.”
The accusation against Nabil Naji Rizq and Mina Atallah (identified in some press reports as Mina Nadi Faraj), who were 10 and 9 years old respectively at the time of their arrest in late September, of insulting the Koran made headlines throughout the country after a man saw them playing in rubbish that he claimed included pages from the Koran. Accusing them of tearing pages of Islam’s holy book – a later version of the story had them allegedly urinating on it – he filed a report that led to the arrest of the two children. They were released in early October."

9 and 10 years old and going through this nonsense? It's a shame their god apparently needs the government to protect his name and his scripture.

Do you think they'd look any more kindly on you than a Christian? Don't bet your life on it.

At least Christians and Jews are "people of the book" who are looked on favorably in parts of the Koran. Infidels like you, not so much.

Just be glad you don't live in a toilet like Egypt.

Islamaphobes!!!

Next thing you'll suggest is that you can be executed for ripping up a Koran, or for being gay, or for dishonoring your family by kissing a boy, or for drawing a cartoon of Mohammad with a bomb in his turban, or....
