Coptic leader condemns anti-Semitism by Copts

You will recall that on Sunday, supporters of Israel were attacked at a rally of Christian Copts in Milan, Italy. Robert Spencer reports on one Coptic Christian leader who has condemned his co-religionists' anti-Semitism.
We are appalled at the Copts' rejection of fellow protesters who were draped in the Israeli national flag as a show of solidarity with Israel and the Jews.

We strongly condemn the actions of those Coptic Christians (mostly immigrants living in Italy) against the Italian citizens who joined them for the same fight against a common enemy.

This display of anti-Semitism has no place in our struggle for freedom in the world today.

Voice of the Copts stands together with the Jews of Israel and Jews around the world to confront the vicious attacks stemming from a religious and political ideology aimed against each and every one of us who are non-Muslim.
Read the whole thing.

The statement was signed by Dottore Architetto Ashraf Ramelah, President, www.voiceofthecopts.org, www.lavocedeicopti.org. According to the web site,
Voice of the Copts Website is an independent electronic news site which belongs to the Organization known under the same name.

Our goal is to report news of discrimination and oppression of religious minorities in every corner of our planet. A special attention will be given to those taking place in countries ruled by the Arabs, as well as providing an in-depth explanation of their mentality, behaviour and their way of living.

Since we are Copts, events of interest to the Copts concerning issues in their homeland, Egypt, will be covered, Our website would be an open window on the Coptic culture, as well as a comprehensive source of information on the Copts' suffering in their own land.
A lone voice in the desert or truly representative of what most Copts think? I have no way to say for sure. Kabdeihu v'chashdeihu (respect him and be suspicious of him).
