Facts and history matter, so I ask you to learn 'em.
Fact: Copts are not Arabs.
Fact: Copts are descendents of Christian fellaheen, descendents of the ancient Egyptians.
Fact: Their culture is derived from the ancients.
Hence, the Arab 'genocide' was more like the natives getting absorbed and absorbing the conqueror's culture, like the Gauls under the Franks.

Facts and history matter; so does relevant posting.

You have yet to refute anything I posted. You have attempted to put words in my mouth. You have repeated a prior post, which means NOTHING and is totally off topic to what I said.

The Greeks, from Alexander's army, took over Egypt. They and their descendants had NOTHING to do with the building of the pyramids or the Rosetta Stone. Supposedly, the Kush ruled Egypt at obne time. They and their descendants had NOTHING to do with what we now consider to be " Ancient Egyptian Culture ". The Romans, too, held Egypt in thrall at one time. They and dtheir descendants are the same as those already mentioned. Much of today's Egyptian populace is a mixture of peoples who had NO bearings, whatsoever, on the Rosetta Stone. Then, there are the influx of ARABS.

Yes, dear, history and facts DO matter very much; it's a shame that you don't state any that are relevant.;^)
