Al Azhar university wants Egyptian Christians to say they're not really discriminated against.
A US government report has come out and said (((shock))) Egypt's Christian minorities face persecution.
So, our heroes (and Moderate Muslims) over at al-Azhar are saying that Copts should tell the 'Merican government that they're not really oppressed and that they have it good in Egypt, splashly since dey be protected under dat Egyptian law.
Al-Azhar attempted to persuade Egypt's Coptic Church on Thursday to rebuff a US report claiming that Christians in Egypt were discriminated against.
The Coptic Church had--for the first time--welcomed an annual US report on religious freedoms, saying there was indeed discrimination against Christians in Egypt. The Church held the government responsible for the report's conclusions, since it had ignored previous criticisms.
Perhaps a few more shootings of Egyptian Christians will straighten them out of thinking that they're discriminated against?

Al-Azhar spokesman Ambassador Mohammad Rafaa al-Tahtawi said the objective of the meeting was to take a "patriotic stance" representing all citizens, both Muslim and Christian alike. He said Al-Azhar considered the report "unacceptable interference" in Egypt’s domestic affairs.
No discrimination here, just us tolerant Muslims.
