Never mind these fake news outlets trying to imply that Copts are Arabs when they are not.
Coptic Christians get shot all the time by islamists. They are discriminated against by law in Arab states. They work to make their voices heard, but never succeed. The MSM ignores them UNTIL THEY SAY SOMETHING NEGATIVE ABOUT PRESIDENT TRUMP. Then suddenly, the media hears them and makes a big deal out of it, given them column inches above the fold.
I hate the MSM.
Well...they are. "Arab" is an ethic identifier and not a religious one. The Coptic Orthodox Church is based in the Arab world. They're Arabs.
