CULLING PIGS IN FLU FIGHT, EGYPT ANGERS HERDERS AND DISMAYS U.N.

The decision, announced Wednesday, is already adding new
strains to the tense relations between Egypt's majority Muslims
and its Coptic Christians. Most of Egypt's pig farmers are
Christians, and some accuse the government of using swine flu
fears to punish them economically.
