Last year a big part of the news in America was about a basketball
player and his escapade with a woman who first solicited to have
sex with him and then accused him of rape. The news was all over
the media.
Why such silly incident should be newsworthy is not clear. But
the whole accusation and trial was televised and broadcasted by
every single media outlet in America ad nauseam. The same circus
was played in the case of the pop singer Michael Jackson and his
child molestation charges. His trial received as much coverage
as the presidential election.
But last Friday a whole family of four was slain in their own
home. Their throats were slit. They were stabbed and brutally
murdered. Yet no one said a word. An Egyptian American man 47,
his wife 37 and his two daughters 16 and 8 were all found dead,
soaked in their own blood at their New Jersey home today. The
jewelry was not missing. Burglary has been ruled out. The police
suspect only one motive: �religious hate�.
The Father, Hossam Armanious, spent some of his spare time in
Internet chat rooms debating about religion and speaking out against
the Islamic persecution of the Coptic Christians in his native
country Egypt .
About two months ago, when he made a comment in a Paltalk chat
room, he was threatened. �
"Some Muslim guys said if you don't stop this, we're going to
come out and kill you," said a family friend. To which he responded:
�Here is America , I am free to say whatever I want�.
Armanious could not be more wrong. When he found out that even
in America he was not free to speak his mind, it was already too
late. He was stabbed to death, his throat was slashed and his
entire family was butchered.
But amazingly, the media did not find this horrendous crime newsworthy.
Except a few, none of them had any word about it. Not a squeak
was heard from CNN; no mention of this on ABC, CBS or any other
big media outlet!�
Is it that the big American media already know what Armanious
did not know? Are they afraid to report this carnage? Have they
already convinced themselves that even in America you are not
free to speak your mind and the first amendment is baloney? �Or
perhaps they have sold their soul to the devil of political correctness?
The NBC news reported �authorities were investigating whether
a former tenant, who had had a dispute with the family, was involved.�
There is no mention of the death threat in their report.
A dispute with a former tenant!? Do people kill an entire family
over a past tenancy dispute? What kind of person can slash the
throat of an eight year old child for a dispute over a few hundred
dollars? Are the reporters in NBC stupid or do they think their
viewers are stupid?
The abclocal.go.com
reported: �With no signs of forced entry or robbery, detectives
suspect the victims may have known their killer. But at this moment,
still no motive or suspect in this heartbreaking case.�
But this is a lie. The authorities HAVE some clue about the motives.
The nj.com
reported the full story: �An uncle of Armanious' wife, Amal
Garas, said yesterday that detectives told him they were pursuing
the chat room argument as a possible motive for the slayings.
The uncle, Milad Garas, was one of many family members interviewed
by police Friday. �"One detective said this was his theory,"
the uncle said.
The local northjersey.com�
reported �Islamic extremists may have murdered four members
of a Coptic Orthodox family�
And the newyorkpost.com
titled its article �Islamic Hate Eyed in Slays� �
The rest of the media did not even report the carnage. These
media moguls who kill to report about the sex scandals of celebrities
were shamefully silent over this horrendous crime. Those few who
reported it did not dare to say a word about the possible suspects.
Has America already become a dhimmi nation? Are the big American
media afraid of the Islamists? Do the reporters fear for their
own lives? What is the explanation of this silence? How many more
death you need before you wake up and realize our freedom in America
is hijacked? How many more innocent people should bathe in their
own blood before you realize we are no more free in our own homes
and the first amendment does not exist anymore? If today, Muslims
with less than 2% of the population, can intimidate you to the
extent that you are afraid to report their crimes, what will befall
on you (and us) if their number is allowed to grow to 10%�
What happened to American justice? What about the slogan "Don't
tread on me"? Well America, you have been treaded on big time.
What are you going to do about it?� When are you going to stand
up and say enough is enough?
Please write to the media, call them on the phone and demand
them to cover this story truthfully. We do not want them to judge
and condemn the Muslims for this crime. But Muslims are the only
suspects. Why not report this? If they can report about a dispute
with an ex tenant, which is ludicrous, why can't they report the
death threat? What is the significance of this cowardly silence?
