[Elder of Ziyon] Egyptian Islamic party head calls to kill Christians, march on Israel

Lost in the glare of the media attention on Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood party are the smaller, completely insane Islamist parties to its right. (You know, the ones that make the MB appear "moderate" by

comparison.)

The Egyptian Islamic party, headed by Mohamed Abu Samra and Kamal Habib, is just one of these powderkegs that are off the radar of most Western analysts.

Samra just seized on the apparent Israeli raid on Egypt to declare that Islamist groups will march towards Israel on May 15th in protest.

Muhammad Abu Samra, the Secretary-General of the Islamic Party said: "We will soon take revenge against Israel for what it did in Syria. It will begin with convoys of jihadis on the Egyptian-Palestinian borders, on May 15.

Abu Samra said, in an interview yesterday, Sunday, with Rula Kharsa, the media personality in the "Al-Balad Al-Youm" program on the Sada Al-Balad channel, that there is another aim for marking this day: it is embarrassing President Mursi, who protects the Jews under the pretext of respecting the American treaties and who didn't do a thing when Gaza was hit – which was a test conducted by America to check how committed he is to his treaty with Israel.

Only last week, Samra said something even more outrageous, according to the Christian Post:

Mohamed Abu Samra, secretary-general of the Islamic Jihad Party, made the claim that "it is permissible to kill some Christians today," then gave his argument defending such a position.

He justified this announcement by saying: "Those who came out with weapons, their blood is allowed for us [to spill], as a fighter is not considered dhimmi."

"In the recent funeral, the Christians brought the Qur'an and urinated on it. The Sheikh of Al-Azhar did not deny it. They also came out in demonstrations to destroy Muslim places, chanting 'We'll bring Islam down by any means possible,'" Samra said during an interview with Egyptian newspaper Al-Watan on Wednesday.

One of the major problems with the Islamist government in Egypt isn't with the Muslim Brotherhood itself - but its very existence as the new "mainstream" has moved the center far to the right - and as a result, it has legitimized racist, hateful Islamist rhetoric that was considered taboo before the revolution.
