The Egyptian Coptic Church has issued a press release condemning the western media’s sympathy for the Muslim Brotherhood that is responsible for their misreporting of events in Egypt and the ethnic cleansing against Christians.
‘Referring to perceived sympathy for the Muslim Brotherhood by western media outlets, the statement, translated by Al Arabiya, called on the West to “read objectively the facts of events, and not give international and political cover to these terrorists and bloody groups.”‘
‘The church reaffirmed its support for the Egyptian authorities, following the ouster of Muhammed Morsi. The Egyptian Coptic Church is following the unfortunate developments on the ground of our country Egypt and emphasizes its strong stance with the Egyptian police, armed forces and other organizations of the Egyptian people in the face of groups of armed violence and black terrorism.’
‘While we appreciate the sincere and friendly position that understands the nature of the developments, we strongly deplore the media fallacies that are prevalent in Western countries.’
Protect the Pope comment: How does the BBC respond to the accusation as one of the major media organisations in the West that the Egyptian Copts ‘deplore the media fallacies that are prevalent in Western countries? The BBC’s failure to expose Sheikh Yusif al-Qaradawi’s alleged incitement of violence against Egypt’s Christians is a scandal that will go down in the history of persecution as a total abnegation of responsible journalism.
