Will any Coptic or Christian Churches be left standing in Egypt?
Sadly, while the US Government orders sequestration cuts in sensitive areas that hurt the USA, they send billions in support of Egypt and their Muslim Brotherhood. What are their priorities?
Lord have mercy.

Church burnings, war, drug dealing, free pornography, pop-music and Israel. Same as ever 
Do not be shocked by those who teach new doctrines but seem to be worthy of credence. Stand solidly like an anvil under blows. A good athlete suffers blows but wins. St Ignatius.

There is a report that the Muslim Brotherhood supporters have destroyed the Virgin Mary Monastery in Quwsaya, Asyut. It is also known as the Muharraq Monastery, one of the oldest in the world. Lost were manuscripts dating to the 4th century. This Monastery was built on a place where Our Lord, The Theotokos, and St.Joseph took refuge after their flight into Egypt.
That these thugs are funded and supported by Western powers is sickening.

Lord have mercy. I hope copies were made of these valuable manuscripts.
Let us not forget that the Muslim hordes of the past have destroyed the priceless library at Alexandria.
