In light of the recent attack on St. Mark Cathedral, the rife between a moderate Egypt—consisting of moderate/secular Muslims and Christians—and a radical one—consisting of the Muslim Brotherhood, Salafis, and Islamists—continues to grow.
For example, a video was recently aired of a Muslim woman, in black hijab, holding a sign in front of the cathedral saying “Down with Fascistic, Nazi, Murderous Islam,” and other references to the Muslim Brotherhood, such as the name “Bana” (a reference to the founder of the Brotherhood). It is clear that she prompts mixed reactions. Some Muslims jeer at her, stalk her, and even threaten her, even as she—irately—yells things like “none of your business!”
Others ask her, “What do you have against Islam?” to which she responds that she loves Islam—“our Islam, not theirs” indicating the Brotherhood. She then went into a passionate tirade explaining how it was Christians who first helped Muslims when they were being attacked in Arabia, and how Muslims fled to Ethiopia, where the Christian king sheltered them. “After they hosted and sheltered, now we kill them—shame on you!”
