I've known these people for years. They are in touch with their families on almost a daily basis. I see them every Sunday. I am not misinformed. Perhaps the Copts you know are secular and part of or related to people who are part of the Mubarak regime, or perhaps they just have a different opinion.
The Copts I know are devote Christians. They are in constant touch with relatives in Egypt. I have known them for decades. They say that Mubarek understands how you must deal with Islam.They fear the rise of theocracies across the Arab world. Once again, what you are saying is the opposite of reality.
