R1b1a2 haplogroup is rarely found in modern-day Egypt . . . .

If the Copt population were broken out I'm sure the incidence of that haplogroup would match European percentages.

Actually, it turns out the 1 percent is from British immigrants to Egypt from the time it was a British colony.

The Copts seem to be Semitic people, like the Jews, moreso then the Celtiberians or the Greeks.

I was thinking the same thing.
The Arabs are currently trying to annihilate the Copts.........
