CAIRO: A new report from George Washington University professor Michele Clark and Coptic rights activist Nada Ghaly has argued that thousands of young Coptic Christian girls in Egypt are the victim of kidnapping and forced servitude by Muslims in the North African country.
Women and girls who are found indicate they were befriended by friends or relatives of their kidnappers, or the kidnappers themselves, drugged and then taken in a well-organized plan.
Others, like a young mother who testified before the Helsinki Commission last week, were snatched by violent strangers in broad daylight. Her would-be abductor shouted to bystanders while dragging her to a waiting taxi, No one interfere! She is an enemy of Islam, said a report highlighting the new report.
The report, which detailed Clark and Ghalys latest description of violence against young Coptic women, goes on to say:
Abduction, many who return home indicate that they were raped and told they could not go home because their families would never accept them back. Many are beaten; others are forced into domestic servitude. They are not allowed to leave where they are held without a member of their captors family keeping watch. They eventually are brainwashed into thinking the only way to be safe is to convert. Their families, who have been searching frantically for their daughters, sisters and wives without any help from the police often never discover their fate. The lucky ones find out via YouTube and other websites that their daughters are alive and have converted. While some conversions could be legitimate, overwhelming evidence points to abduction, forced marriage and coerced conversion persecuting the Coptic population.
--------------------------
One of most reported cases is of Irene Hanna Labib, who was allegedly kidnapped from Sohag, some 500 kilometers south of Cairo, in 2009. According to AINAs reporter, Mary Abbelmassih, the Egyptian police in the area are refusing to go after her abductor. She argues that Labibs kidnapping is part of the Islamization business and part of the way Egypts Muslim population are attempting to rid Egypt of Christians.
She quotes Magdy Khalil, a Copt and researcher, who says abducting and converting Coptic girls to Islam is not only a result of the paranoid and racist incitation against the Copts, it is an organized and pre-planned process by associations and organizations inside Egypt with domestic and Arab funding, as the main role in seducing and luring Coptic girls is carried through cunning, deceit, and enticement, or through force if required."
Or on Egypt.

PS; Burhead I'll get back to you, I do know what I'm talking about.
Did you research either of the books I recommended?
(neither cover what you dispute but do give lots of background on real rather than rewritten history.)
I did, went to the library Friday and they didn't have it. They didn't have anything regarding the Yugoslav wars which was surprising.
