Egypt: Coptic Christian Student Murdered By Muslim Classmates For Wearing A Cross…
The merciless persecution of Christians in Islamic lands continues.
(AINA) — In mid-October Egyptian media published news of an altercation between Muslim and Christian students over a classroom seat at a school in Mallawi, Minya province. The altercation lead to the murder of a Christian student. The media portrayed the incident as non-sectarian. However, Copts Without Borders, a Coptic news website, refuted this version and was first to report that the Christian student was murdered because he was wearing a crucifix.
“We wanted to believe the official version,” said activist Mark Ebeid, “because the Coptic version was a catastrophe, as it would take persecution of Christians also to schools.” He blamed the church in Mallawi for keeping quiet about the incident.
Today the parents of the 17-year-old Christian student Ayman Nabil Labib, broke their silence, confirming that their son was murdered on October 16, in “cold blood because he refused to take off his crucifix as ordered by his Muslim teacher.” Nabil Labib, the father, said in a taped video interview with Copts United NGO, that his son had a cross tattooed on his wrist as per Coptic tradition, as well as another cross which he wore under his clothes.
Both parents confirmed that Ayman’s classmates, who were present during the assault and whom they met at the hospital and during the funeral, said that while Ayman was in the classroom he was told to cover up his tattooed wrist cross. He refused and defiantly got out the second cross which he wore under his shirt. “The teacher nearly chocked by son and some Muslim students joined in the beating,” said his mother.

Yeah Zip I heard about this because it was being covered in detail on the major news outlets… No Wait…
Yet Muslims filing suit against Catholic University to remove crucifixes gets the full monty…
I see the second coming of the Crusades in the years ahead.
The question is, just how much provocation will be required?
And of course… Silence from the White House.
From what I understand, most of the Coptics have a cross tattooed on their wrist.
They desperately need our prayers!
And these are the people Hussein supports, including remaining silent on the Egyptian Neo-Nazi Party. He’ll go charging into Libya to support unknown and supposed al-Qaeda allied murderers, but will probably not lift a finger or bat an eye towards the murder of a Christian for the crime of existing.
Well. He is a true martyr. He is in Heaven now for sure. And take comfort. No muslim will ever enter Heaven. And they know it.. That is why they worry about hell so much.
Ahhh, the religion of peace, only defiled by the extremist Islamists. But wait, this was a teacher and students in a classroom, not some Kalishnakov-toting rebel? Must’ve been an exception, but that’ll never happen here . . .
I’m very disappointed that no Republican candidates for President have mentioned this. This subject should be broached at every debate henceforth and placed at Obama’s doorstep. This could be another millstone for him to wear. His wretched foreign policy or lack thereof has elevated this stuff to epidemic proportions.

Hmm if that is true then i must be a coptic my self. I have a 6″x 4″ one on my right forearm/wrist.
Is anyone else backing up AINA——or are other sites refuting this version?
God be with us all – stay strong – it will be worth it.
God bless America, our troops, Israel, and fellow humans.
The “religion of peace” strikes again … as Jeffrey B points out, it’s galling that none of the Republicans have begun to speak out about this. What are they afraid of? CAIR? Please, get a Christian in the White House and maybe we’ll see the towel heads crawl back under their rocks, or back to their fields so they can bugger their goats.
@ZIPPY the f.c.–
I certainly hope someone is “backing up” AINA. I imagine that they are not too popular in the Middle East these days–non-Islamic party line and all that.

I can imagine if some christian fundalmentalists had murdred a mulim student for wearing a cresent and star every birdcage linner/parrots toilet and all the talking dummiehead would be on it for weeks
I wish the Republican candidates would start asking why Obama has been so assertive and positive about the “Arab Spring” while ignoring this incident, what happened to Christians in the Sudan and why he said nothing when the Iranians protested the mullahs and the mullahs trumped up charges on a Christian pastor. Make Carney spin like a top for his paycheck.
MaryFM—–the Copts need a heck of a lot of back-up. the persecution of Christians in the Middle East has really increased since the invasion of Iraq. Things in Iraq are even worse than in Egypt.
The schools in Muzzie lands aren’t schools aren’t schools in the sense that we mean schools. They don’t exist to teach; they exist to indoctrinate. Well, okay, for the left in the US, they agree that the schools exist to indoctrinate, but it’s even worse in Muzzieworld. Let me amend that… For conservatives in the US, schools exist to teach. For Muzzies and Lefties, schools exist to indoctrinate.
Hey, I know what we can do! Let’s extend 100,000 visias to more muslims from egypt and the rest of the middle east! Yay! (super sarc).
A friedn of mine and I agree that the muzzies are very likely to take over the world – if the West continues to refuse to address these issues and keeps on bending over backwards for the muslims.
The blood of this Christian and all Christians murdered and persecuted in the Middle East and Africa is on the hands of this President due to his support of the Arab Terror Spring and his defiance in not bringing attention to this plight and bring these Christians to the US.
Vengeance is the Lord’s and we are all deserving. Praise God, He will have mercy on whom He wants.
