ISIS Massacres Christians in Egypt, Says Christians Are Its ‘Favorite Prey’
President al Sisi needs to protect the minority group to prevent the country from falling to extremism

Not only is ISIS using social media to boost recruitment of terrorists, but it’s now also using video to spread its message. A prime example is a newly-released ISIS production documenting atrocities that the group committed in Egypt.

The 20-minute video produced by ISIS of Egypt contains footage of the massacre perpetrated by ISIS in a Christian Church in Egypt in December 2016. Thirty people were murdered and dozens of Egyptian Christians were wounded. Most of them were women and children. In the video, an ISIS terrorist proudly announces that their “favorite prey” is Christians.

The terrorist featured in this video is called al Musri, a pseudonym for “the ISIS everyman.” Al Musri simply means “the Egyptian” or “of Egypt.”
