We heard last week Egyptian people demonstrating and shouting: “We will destroy the church… We don’t need a church in an Islamic country”. This was a sample of what was said by Egyptian people in village of Amiriyah against the Copts in June 17, 2016. This came after rumors spread about turning an under construction building to a church. The same scenario repeated itself just like every attack of that kind. However, the Copts are still waiting for the unified law of building houses of worship. Politicians are denying the problem and claiming that Copts are not minorities in Egypt.

Imposing emergency law firmly in Egypt comes to protect us from terrorism of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamic currents and Jihadists. During the war against terrorism, the state has to impose some restrictions for freedom of movement as well as freedom of peaceful assembly that are currently used to murder innocent people and attack public and private properties.

However the Copts are not pets to give them the governor’s leftovers, President Mohammed Morsy has decided finally to give them a permission to build a church 17 years after they first applied for it. This shows the difficulty of getting a license to build a church, and the persecution of the Copts by both the former and the current regime.

Federal Criminal Court in Switzerland has decided today not to grant Egypt the right to inspect Mubarak's funds, which are estimated at 700 million Swiss francs despite the former approval of the Swiss Public Prosecution.

GENEVA (30 November 2012) – The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay has urged the President of Egypt, Mohamed Morsi, to reconsider the Constitutional Declaration issued last week, saying a number of measures contained in it are incompatible with international human rights law. She further warned that approving a constitution in these circumstances could be a deeply divisive move.

The decision of Mr. President to reinstate the dissolved Parliament is an invalid decision, and he should be prosecuted for it. Moreover, he has committed another mistake when he claimed that Military Council had issued a mistaken administrative decision, In fact, it was an executive on.
