Barack Obama released a statement today claimed the victims were both Christian and Muslim.
From the White House:
The attack on a church in Alexandria, Egypt caused 21 reported deaths and dozens of injured from both the Christian and Muslim communities
Not true.
All 21 of the victims in the attack were Christian. No Muslims died in the attack.
Catholic Online reported:
The explosion, during the first hour of the New Year, left 21 dead, 79 injured and questions about possible involvement of al-Qaida. All but eight of the injured and all the fatalities were Christians from Saints Church, located on the eastern side of the coastal city.
He’s afraid to say Islamic extremism.
Now he’s making up Muslim victims too
And more, also from Gateway Pundit:

Barack Obama today released a statement following the Islamic terrorist attacks targeting Christians in Egypt and innocents in Nigeria.
The President would not blame “Islamic” radicals in his statement and said Muslims were also victims.
Here is the White House statement condemning the attacks.
I strongly condemn the separate and outrageous terrorist bombing attacks in Egypt and Nigeria. The attack on a church in Alexandria, Egypt caused 21 reported deaths and dozens of injured from both the Christian and Muslim communities. The perpetrators of this attack were clearly targeting Christian worshipers, and have no respect for human life and dignity. They must be brought to justice for this barbaric and heinous act. We are continuing to gather information regarding this terrible event, and are prepared to offer any necessary assistance to the Government of Egypt in responding to it.
The attack near an army barracks in Abuja also reportedly killed more than 20 people and wounded many more. Killing innocent civilians who were simply gathering – like so many people around the world – to celebrate the beginning of a New Year further demonstrates the bankrupt vision of those who carry out these attacks, and we are similarly prepared to offer assistance to the Government of Nigeria as it works to bring the perpetrators to justice.
The United States extends its deepest condolences to the families of those killed and to the wounded in both of these attacks, and we stand with the Nigerian and Egyptian people at this difficult time.
You can’t win a war when you don’t know who you’re fighting
