Egypt: Salafist Nour Party Says No To Christian President, Pledge To Have It Enshrined In New Sharia-Based Constitution…
It’s abundantly clear Christians have no place in post-Arab Spring Egypt, in ten years their numbers will be a tiny fraction of what they are today.
CAIRO: Egypt’s al-Nour ultra-conservative political party announced that a Coptic Christian cannot become president of Egypt and that Egyptian society “will not accept a Christian president.”
The puritan party’s spokesman wrote a statement published on the party’s website aiming to clear the controversy after Egypt’s al-Akhbar state-run newspaper published an interview with spokesman Mohamed Nour on December 31 in which he said that “the Egyptian society is not fit to accept a Coptic president.”
The Islamic political party was founded after the Egyptian uprising of January 2011 and has come in second place in the country’s first parliamentary elections following the revolution.
“We see that the interpretation of the second band in the Egyptian Constitution which states Islam as the ‘official religion’ of the country, which automatically states that the president be a Muslim,” read the statement.
“The party will make sure that the next Constitution directly states that,” the party’s website said.
The statement added that many European countries with ancient democratic practices specifies the religion, and even the sect of the president, such as Greece and Spain and the “unwritten Constitution of the UK.”
The spokesman also said the party doesn’t accept, under any circumstances, a civil state and wants a religious state built on Sharia, or Islamic law, as it is explained by scholars.
“The Salafist movement completely refuses the notion of a civil or secular state and we want a state built on Islamic principals,” said the spokesman.

Can you imagine how these people socialize?
“And the most cooperative goat is over in Zaib’s pasture, not a single ba-a-a-a-a. Oh and I heard Ali honor killed his twin daughters then buried them in Samsonite luggage in the back barnyard. Most delightful, he beheaded them both with one stroke ahahahahaha. We are planning a suicide bomber training couscous party and you are all invited, Death to the Infidel! AYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYAYAYAYAYAYYAYA!!!Aha haha. Yes, yes and Hussein you don’t use your LEFT hand to eat the lamb with rice curry, yes yes, the key is to check which hand has shit under your fingernails first before you eat. Oh and as I beat my wife tonight she looked especially terrified that I would honor kill her, it was most delightful. Yes yes and I thighed the new neighbor’s baby and it too, was most delightful.”
muslim, muslim, muslim….constantly being driven down our throats. I challenge anyone….state one good item EVER to result from the fake religion called islam.
…nothing a little 500 megaton output explosive air burst device couldn’t fix…
“Yes yes and a new Bacha Bazi boy is being auctioned this Thursday for the regular man-orgy which we do not call homosexuality because then we can tell the infidel that we don’t do that. Yes yes and he is all of 8 and, ha ha, it’s like he he has the ass of an 8 year old, aha haha ha, yes yes like a polished pearl, Allah is surely smiling upon us to give us such heavenly gifts before martyrdom. Yes and my daughter is having her genitals cut off on Friday, you are all welcome to watch her scream, but there’s only limited tickets for holding her down while we cut her up with one of my filthiest dullest razor blades…”
I think that’s Obama in the blue and red White Sox cap near the front. he’s said in the past how he’s loved Cominsky Park.
Ten years? Or ten months?
Bring on Crusades II…. Its time
How soon will they return to their caves and clubs?
@tenacity
CLASSIC.
No surprise here.
I find it interesting that the Media has forgotten about Egypt, and won’t even discuss it anymore now that Barry’s plan for total Islamification of it has come true.
There’s no Arab Spring going on. Call it what it is: Islamic Winter.
I think that guy with the tight pants slobbering all over the people in the streets for the “arab spring”, Anderson Cooper, needs to get back to Egypt to find out what went wrong with his boys. They are not behaving like he said they would. Boo Hoo.
Is that a White Sox cap that asshole is wearing?
And America will not accept an atheist nominee for President.
Troll alert.
Really, what’s the point of putting it in the constitution? There is absolutely ZERO chance that the Egyptian people would vote to elect a Christian president anyway…..
What an outcry over any attempt to make a muslim disallowed as US president…
