Meunir (you can consider me as opposed to him), I was impressed. This is the second time I hear him on a tape and his speech is much better than what has been reported about him. He strongly emphasized that the convention is backed by Christian and Muslim members and that it is pro-human rights of all Egyptians.<BR/>Anyway, I think everybody should see that tape and judge.Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08558903851142869523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8003335.post-1127864292347885922005-09-28T02:38:00.000+03:002005-09-28T02:38:00.000+03:00How did the Catholic priest look like?

Was he in black with a beard or in Grey with no beard?<BR/><BR/>He may be Yohanna Qolta, but I'm not sure.<BR/><BR/>I regret very much that you respect Gamal Assad. Although every human being deserves respect for being a human, my guessing is that you have a very partial idea about this person. You need to learn more about his history.<BR/><BR/>As for Adly Abadir's requests, this is too surprising. He never talked about something like that. He used to be the least controversial among European and American Coptic activists and he was the funny guy trying to run for president.<BR/>It would be interesting to read his website, I'll go there and try to sort out what the hell is this "independent thing". My guessing is that it is a maneuvre or a political game before the parliamentary elections, as a response maybe to numbers like <A HREF="http://islamonline.net/Arabic/politics/2005/07/article07a.shtml" REL="nofollow">these</A>.<BR/><BR/>Bottom line: I bet he is playing a political game to get more parliamentary seats for Copts. It's a shame that any of these things should be done.Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08558903851142869523noreply@blogger.com
