My Way News - Egypt Islamists defiant over Christian governor
My Way News reports: "Protesters led by hardline Islamists in southern Egypt held their ground Monday, saying they won't end their campaign of civil disobedience until the government removes a newly appointed Coptic Christian governor [...] Since the Feb. 11 ousting of President Hosni Mubarak in popular protests, Islamist groups have have been flexing their muscles and are vowing to take a more active political role as Egypt is still drawing its transition to democracy [...] tensions were so high that the local Christian residents had to stay inside and couldn't go to church to celebrate Palm Sunday."
