Attack on Christians in Egypt

The fighting between the Christain minority and the people of Egypt is coming from the want for protection since the Christians are the minority. President Mohamed Morsi gave a pledge to protect this minority and in the past three days has shown them that there is no protection. Sectarian attacks are happening to test this pledge. After the attacks had already taken place is when the president called the Coptic pope to reassure him that there would be protection for Muslims and Christians. Multiple people have already died due to these attacks and there must be something done.
