Just taking this photo, I was accosted by two cops, one with an automatic rifle, who took me to two more cops. Understandably, all Coptic churches are heavily guarded, but it makes no sense to prevent visitors from taking photos of beautiful churches from a distance. Whatever...
Today, I saw a church with an beautiful mosaic and a message in English, "Out of Egypt have I called my son." Though I saw no cops, I didn't take out my camera. There were several guys around, and I wasn't sure if one of them was undercover.

Is beautiful, Linh. At left, to me, the structure looks like either a belltower or a Christian minaret. Thank you.
Yo Chuck,

Egypt is zionized just like the US. At present, in D.C. today, nobody can be sure who are "undercover." Will be glad when you goeth out of Egypt.
