Jihad Watch and Atlas Shrugs present some pictures and info from a Coptic rally in Milano, Italy, where the demonstrators against jihadist attacks on Coptic Christians in Egypt scared away several people who wore Israeli flags on their shoulders.
And it definitely is embarrassing as it is shocking. It's not new, that there are Christian "representatives" who've been scapegoating Israel and the Jewish community, which only obscures the real concern, that being the Islamofascists, of course. Sometimes I wonder if this kind of irresponsibility is what discourages some Europeans from finding full faith in Christianity - when the leaders and reps fail to show real guts, and/or resort to blame game tactics against Jews, it might have the effect of making people in Europe feel dispirited, seeing that the leaders are not acting seriously about combatting creeping shari'a.
As Robert Spencer says, not all Copts are anti-semitic, but those who pulled this awful behavior are taking a serious risk of damaging the Jewish community's ability to fully back their cause. How will the war against Islamofascism be fought successfully if communities against it are divided?

A very large percentage of Arab Christians I have spoken to display the same kind of hatred of Israel that their Muslims brothers display.
