Jihad watch has a good post of the murder of Hossam Armanious and his family. My friend Brad pointed out in a post in a seperate thread that a mutual friend thinks the Coptic cross tattoo was defaced by the murder. If this is true, it would seem religion is a factor in these murders.
The jihad watch article quotes a New York Post article titled "Islamic Hate" Eyed in Slays". The article contained this bit of information:
"The heartless killer not only slit Sylvia's throat, but also sliced a huge gash in her chest and stabbed her in the wrist, where she had a tattoo of a Coptic cross."
It would seem that this is what… a religious assassination?
