Egyptian Coptic Christians living in the United States sent a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton imploring her to take more action against the ‘crime against humanity’ facing the Christian population in Egypt from the Muslim Brotherhood.’ Monir Dawoud, head of the American Coptic Association said, ‘The radical Muslim Brotherhood was attempting to annihilate Christians and other religious minorities in the country.’ Dawoud called for a guarantee of rights for all minorities to be included in the new constitution after Egypt's new government is elected in less than three weeks, and that aid to Egypt be conditional on the country's justice toward Christians and minorities. The letter states, ‘The Muslim Brotherhood is waging what it calls 'civilization jihad' against the United States and other freedom-loving countries in order to secure their submission to the Islamic totalitarian political-military-legal doctrine called Sharia.’ Repeated calls to stem the popularity of the Muslim Brotherhood have been heard in Congress.
Pray: Egypt’s government would choose to take a balanced attitude towards Christian minorities allowing them to openly follow Jesus Christ. (Ps.85:12-13)
