Asking for Salafis' permission
The extremists in Egypt have demonstrated against building churches claiming they have no permits or even that the new building violates the current permission. However, they decided to take their bullying to the next level by imposing their extremism on the police. This happened in the account of St. Mary Church in Galaa village, Minya.
 
The police asked the priest of the new church to give the extremists some time before they accept building the new church in their village! Later, the police brought the humiliating conditions of the Salafists to build that church including their supervision on the building. Here, the sheikh of the village and some extremists are much more powerful than the government.
 
The Egyptian government decided to prove it's not fighting Islam when it faces the Muslim Brotherhood. Thus, it decided to take care of the Islamists even by bringing a state of chaos to the scene.
 
Such treatment should make the Muslim Brotherhood really happy as it sends leaders of the terrorist organization to prisons and other leaders of the same organization in the parliament, even against the Egyptian constitution.
 
In fact, the Egyptian people have not demonstrated in June 30 to replace Islamic current with another. Moreover, the government treats the Salafis as the weak party, which is very dangerous as well.
 
In this account, the President decided to deal in a totally different way as he went to the great Cathedral though the Salafist called he who does it as infidel. He criticized their fanaticism as no Muslim ruler has done in 14 centuries. However , the government has not considered all of this and decided to ask for their permission before building the licensed churches! We should ask the prime minister before any new decisions: have you taken the permission of the Salafis before doing so and so?
