Libya, Egypt, Syria and Iraq are all in varying stages of civil war. Millions of people are going to grow up poor, violent and with lots of axes to grind.
According to an Egyptian journalist friend, the total so far is 25 churches burned, not counting Christian "Schools, clinics, shops, bookstores, houses, etc.."
al-Sisi has also just announced that the Egyptian military will pay for the rebuilding and repair of all damaged churches.
Thanks for that info, Samn!. On the one hand, it would be great if the military followed through, and even better if they acted to protect the churches and punish the vandals. On the other hand, this will probably serve as "proof" that Christians are in cahoots with the military and reinforce the anti-Christian bigotry. Unforturnately, it probably can't get any worse.
In the Middle East, things can always get worse.
