EGYPT WAS NOT ARAB; ARABIC IS A NEW LANGUAGE.

The Coptics, now heavily perseucuted, are closer to Egypt and its true language than today's Arabs. The Coptics should be given a state of their own - if only to negate the Middle-east as Islamic, when this religion, and the Arab race per se, constitutes the most recent arrival in this region: 2,500 years - and after Greece conquered Persia. Jews, Coptics and the Kurds predate every Islamic state and the Arabs [not to be confused with Arabian]. The Arabic writings itself is new: 400 CE: how on earth can they say anything historical of this region?.

If this is not orchestrated, then other new paradigms will emerge, such as Eurostan; Islamic Kashmir; Islamic East Europe; etc. etc. Those who imagined this was only a Pretend Palestinean issue which only targets Israel are mistaken. Israel is merely a dim light unto the nations - the nations are the VIPS, no?
