Gee and I was under the impression that in Islam there is “no compulsion in religion”. Oh wait that verse (Meccan) is naskh (abrogated) by the Medina verses. My bad.
Shoebat – Walid has analyzed and confirmed that this video is what it purports to be. Essentially, Christians were proselytizing in Benghazi before being rounded up by objecting Islamists.
Jawa – A video report from an Egyptian website claims that 100 Coptic Christians from Egypt have been arrested for the “crime” of fulfilling their Christian duty and spreading the gospel. Some reports claim that the video shows “Islamist elements” holding the Christian prisoners, but the news report itself claims that it was officials of the Libyan government. Or as the Google translation puts it, “Libyan government accusing them of proselytizing”.
…
In any case, the report also claims that the Christians have been tortured by those holding them and that some of them were killed while trying to escape. And lest you think these men were in Libya as Christians, the report also suggests that they were in the country to work as contractors, many of them in professional positions.Here’s the video. The men on the floor with the shaved heads are the captive Christians. Notice the Christian literature being shown as evidence of the “crime”.
Under the Youtube video in Arabic – at the Youtube site – are the words “arrested more than 100 Egyptian missionary Christianity in Libya.”
