The Coptic Church in Amsterdam, one of three Dutch Coptic churches that have received heavy security since all were posted as potential targets on an al-Qaeda website. Authorities feared violence there following the New Year's Eve attack on a church in Egypt, but worshippers say they will come anyway: "You are not afraid if you are a believer. And we are used to it, because we are from Egypt," said one.
