Your insensitivity to the plight of the Coptics is astonishing.
Do you really think that they just woke up one morning and decided to
demonstrate over nothing?  Obviously, their past experience of
persecution, combined with a poorly stated curriculum theme, awakened
their anxieties and fears, causing them to express those in a peaceful
and orderly manner.  And you cannot empathize with that?

As to your unfounded ad hominem attack, I have not only never said
anything even remotely like what you accuse me of, I have consistently
sympathized with the Arabs, and with ALL oppressed people.  I have
re-posted a link on TRB concerning Palestinians in Lebanon who are
struggling against the yoke of Syrian persecution.  And I have made
positive suggestions for enabling the Palestinians to be placed in a
position where they can address their grievances from a position of
power and respect.  But you seem unable or unwilling to distinguish
between constructive criticism and personal attack.
