Egyptian troops execute another Darfur refugee

Egyptian soldiers on Wednesday morning put a bullet in the back of a 24-year-old Sudanese man's head as the desperate refugee from the war-torn Darfur region made a dash for the Israeli border.

Three other Darfur refugees accompanying the victim were arrested by the Egyptians.

Egyptian troops have killed at least 20 African refugees trying to reach Israel this year alone. In at least one incident late last year the Egyptians even threatened to shoot Israeli soldiers who were trying to help refugees escape from their Arab pursuers.

Thousands of Sudanese refugees from Darfur have been in Egypt for years. Recently, many have begun making the long difficult trek across the Sinai desert to escape the oppression and discrimination they experience at Egyptian hands.

1 .  Babs
You are not fooling anyone with your ignorant redneck hillbilly routine so you might as well give it up. You are a phony and we all know it.
And, you know full well why your diatribes have been removed. They always remove hate speech of those who hate the Jews and Israel.

3 .  Eugene, what I actually think about Babs is this:
She is actually an intelligent, educated person who is pretending to be an uneducated hillbilly redneck. Notice she said ''how did you know I ''m married to Bubba?" Do you really think that''s the case? I highly doubt it. I think she is the same Babs who has posted before, & is an antisemite & hater if Israel. I was just giviing a little of her own back to her. It may not have been the most charitable act I have ever done , & for that I do appologize, but this person is not what she portrayed herself to be either. And yes, I am very blessed. The Lord is awsome, & He blesses me daily, for which I am very grateful. I am also grateful for your insight & wisdom in the Word of God, and you and so many others here.

4 .  to Magend and Blessed
I don''t think you had to tell us that the post wasn''t from babs. It was pretty ovious from the writing. But I am glad you told us who it was that posted.

Blessed, I really hope you are blessed. But you sure don''t show it by making fun of people for not living up to your intellect. Did you ever think that she may not have been able to go to school, or that this may not be her native language and is trying to communicate with us the best she knows how. I get irritated with the things she says. But making fun of her attempt at communicating is not a Christian attitude.

Still praying (for love your neighbor)

5 .  Magend, kinda figured as much
"Babs" don''t seem all that bright, anyway. Her & her hubby/brother/uncle/cousin Bubba must be pretty heavy into the moonshine from her writings.......
might be a case of him being his own grandpaw, and she''s her own grandmaw, too. Taking "family ties" to a new level.

7 .  What do the Egyptians have to gain?
This is a horrible story and makes one wonder what the Egyptians have to gain from shooting these people? If the Sudanese want out of Egypt and Egypt doesn''t want them there, what''s the problem? Oh, I get it...it''s because they are Sudanese Muslims leaving Muslim Egypt...for the freedom with ''the dreaded Israelis''. What a black eye for Egypt! Shame on you people! And this is the ''peaceful'' religion of islam...

8 .  Babs, you get more ignorant by the hour!

9 .  Yes, it is sad!
Even the Islamic Sudanese know the place of fefuge: Israel. let''s pray some escape from their Arab opressers...to freedom.
