Credit: Reuters/Amr Abdallah Dalsh By Dina Zayed and Edmund Blair CAIRO | Sun Oct 9, 2011 8:28pm EDT CAIRO (Reuters) - Christians clashed with military police, leaving at least 24 people dead in Cairo, and the cabinet called an emergency meeting for Monday, vowing the violence would not derail Egypt's first election since Hosni Mubarak was toppled. Christians protesting about an attack on a church set cars on fire, burned army vehicles and hurled rocks at military police who they said used heavy-handed tactics against them. It was some of the worst violence since the February uprising. The violence casts a shadow over the imminent parliamentary election. Voting starts on November 28 with candidates due to begin registering during the week starting Wednesday. The clashes also added to growing frustration among activists with the army who many Egyptians suspect wants to keep hold of the reins of power from behind the scenes even as it hands over day-to-day government. The army denies this. "This is a dark day in the military's history. This is betrayal, a conspiracy, murder," Magdy el-Serafy wrote on Twitter where he and other Egyptians voiced frustration at the army's handling of the protest. The Health Ministry said the death toll had reached 24 with 213 injured, the official MENA news agency reported. It did not identify the dead but state television had earlier reported three soldiers were killed. Prime Minister Essam Sharaf toured the area near the state television building where clashes erupted, MENA said, adding he spoke to those in the area to hear their accounts of events. "What happened in front of the state TV building is exactly what happened on January 25," wrote Muslim activist Asmaa Mahfouz, referring to the start of the anti-Mubarak uprising. Christians, who make up 10 percent of Egypt's roughly 80 million people, took to the streets after blaming Muslim radicals for partially demolishing a church in Aswan province last week. They also demanded the sacking of the province's governor for failing to protect the building. Tensions between Christians and Muslims have increased since the uprising. But Muslim and Christian activists said the violence Sunday was not due to sectarian differences but was directed at the army's handling of the protest. 'MALICIOUS CONSPIRACIES' "Instead of advancing to build a modern state of democratic principles, we are back searching for security and stability, worrying that there are hidden hands, both domestic and foreign, seeking to obstruct the will of Egyptians in establishing a democracy," Sharaf said on state television. "We will not surrender to these malicious conspiracies and we will not accept reverting back," he said in his address. The cabinet said in a statement that it would "not let any group manipulate the issue of national unity in Egypt or delay the process of democratic transformation" which it said would begin with opening the doors to candidate nominations. Cabinet spokesman Mohamed Hegazy told Reuters the cabinet would hold a special session Monday to discuss the events. "The most important thing is to contain the situation, see the way forward and the necessary measures to avoid any ramifications," Hegazy said, adding a committee of prominent figures from the church and Al-Azhar mosque would also meet. Presidential candidate Amr Moussa and political groups said they would hold an emergency meeting Monday about the violence. The army imposed a curfew on Cairo's Tahrir Square, the focus for protests that brought down Mubarak, and the downtown area. It was set from 2 a.m. to 7 a.m., (0000-0500 GMT). Pictures of smashed faces and dead bodies of what activists said were bodies run over by military vehicles circulated online, with angry comments comparing the violence used by the military to that of Mubarak's hated police in the uprising. "What happened today is unprecedented in Egypt. 17 corpses crushed by military tanks," Hossam Bahgat, human rights activist tweeted from hospital. "I saw bodies missing hands and legs, heads twisted away or plastered to the ground." Protesters also took to the streets in Alexandria, Egypt's second city. The government appealed for calm. In comments published on his Facebook page, Sharaf said he had contacted security and church authorities about the situation, saying the one ones to benefit were the "enemies of the January revolution."

Authoritarian rulers, while not popularly elected, do have a vested interest in keeping the peace, while mob rule seeks to install right wing Muslim agendas, including intolerance of any other belief system. From burning churches in Egypt to bombing 1000 year old Buddha statues in Afghanistan, Islam’s intolerance of other cultures is leading it into world war. While many Asian nations have been forcibly conscripted into Islam, the Chinese authorities do not look favorably on a religion which constantly seeks to overthrow governments for the purposes of wresting power. In the United States, liberals are beginning to display what looks for all the world to be a well known symptom of hostages, where they begin to form a psychological bond with their tormenters. If Islam does not moderate we will have a world war. This disrespect for other people’s beliefs is not consistent with enlightenment thinking, and nobody wants to be assimilated forcibly into someone else’s belief system. Not that there’s anything wrong with Islam innately, it is, in fact, based upon the same prophetic teachings that Christianity and Judaism are, but one cannot simply force their personal savior onto someone else; that’s not prophetic and that’s not epiphanic; that’s just dominating through brute force; just what the protesters say they are seeking restitution for.
