Here is the carefully-worded report from the English-language site of the Muslim Brotherhood, Ikhwan:

This is the standard language of Ikhwan. They refer to those mysterious people who are trying to defeat the revolution and Arab Spring by dividing the Egyptian people. What they are referring to are the Coptic Christians who complain about the persecution they are suffering as a religious minority.

God only knows how this is all going to end for the Christians in Egypt and the other neighboring countries. And here we are giving hundreds of millions of dollars to this country and its radical government.
