But when christians are going to a foreign country to proselytize and try to change those in that country, then they should be aware that they are not wanted there.
Sure that can happen and I'm sure they are aware of it but Christianity has been in Egypt for thousands of years.
Exactly. If extremist Christians would mind their own business and stop going to countries that are not christian, forcing their bible on these people, maybe they would not have violence directed towards them. Why do they think that the muslims want to be converted to christianity?
You actually believe this is why they're being killed? I do believe it's hard to be an extreme Christian in the ME!

They are being persecuted in the Middle East similar to the way the early Christians were persecuted by the non-believing Jews and Romans. It breaks my heart to see these martyrs killed, but their reward is in heaven, unlike the Muslims who kill them, who are going to hell. The Muslims are much appreciated by Satan, who hates Jesus Christ, and does everything in his power to undermine Christians. Satan loves the Koran, because it directly attacks Jesus Christ as well as Moses. When you don't have the protection of the Lord Jesus Christ, you are at the mercy and whim of Satan - witness the constant chaos of the Muslim world. Arabs shouldn't feel that it is their 'duty' to be Muslim. The earliest non-Jewish Christians were the mixed race (Assyrian-Jewish) Samaritans, and the believers in the Antioch church on the Turkey-Syria border.
Victims aren't martyrs, sorry. I'll roll my eyes at the rest of your post.
The US has been giving aid to Egypt for a long time. Stopping that would destabilize the country and the region. If Obama is so interested in keep the Brotherhood there, he would have done something when the military took the country back.
Your main premise that Christians are being targeted there is accurate. Your attempt to lump Obama's name into anything bad in the world is childish. A better argument would be that the MB was trying to use democracy as a transition to creating a fundamentalist Muslim country.
You don't become the majority without pushing others around.
[hint]
The thing is they are majority and have been in that area for sometime. Goes to show they tolerate nothing, but what they believe in. Against anyone not like them......this is more like ethnic cleansing.
Sadly, nobody cares when Christian churches are attacked. It's astounding that some people see American Evangelicals as no different than the type of Muslims who are behind these type of attacks. When groups of Evangelicals start burning down Mosques and murdering Muslims across the US, then you can make that comparison.
Evangelicals are waiting and waiting and waiting some more for The Rapture. Seems to me when I hear some of their TV preachers they are enormously happy when things around the world, especially the Middle East, are in shambles...they believe that is another sign that the coming of Jesus is almost upon them.
