A relative of one of the victims of a shooting at a Coptic Christian Church. "We were waiting for our bride to come, and we were very happy," said Maria Helmy Atta, rubbing her grief-swollen face as she sat surrounded by other black-clad old women in the church on Monday. Some were angry at the government for failing to guard the church, and others suggested that security forces might have been complicit in the attack. Christians said the police and army had failed to come to their defense in late summer when angry Morsi supporters rampaged in the Coptic heartland south of Cairo, torching churches and looting Christian-owned businesses.
