CHRISTIAN FAMILY MURDERED

[John Derbyshire]

This story is very disturbing. An entire family of Egyptian Copts (i.e. Christians), who had fled Egypt because of the oppression of their faith by Muslims there, were horribly murdered in their Jersey City home. Mother, father, and two young daughters were all hacked to death. It turns out that:

---Nothing was stolen from the house.

---The husband was a fierce defender of his religion in online chat rooms, and drew some angry hostility from Muslims, including death threats.

---The older daughter, aged 16, was "very religious and very opinionated.... The heartless killer not only slit Sylvia's throat, but also sliced a huge gash in her chest and stabbed her in the wrist, where she had a tattoo of a Coptic cross.
