I suppose you can argue the situation in Egypt either way: Better for Christians because they can protest openly, or worse because their churches have been shut down; damaged; or burned and they have been attacked by Muslims.
They have been protesting for 'change' (there is that word again) and the government (the Military) has promised to do 'something' eventually.
Meanwhile, strange incidents like a motorist trying to enter the protest zone and refusing to be searched who then pulls out a gun and fires blanks only to be chased and beaten by the crowd.
A group of ~100 showed up later to 'avenge' the man and the military chased them off by firing over their heads after they lobbed rocks and firebombs at the protesters.
That one doesn't pass the smell test.
The Muslims still had enough bandwidth left to bomb more than 5 Muslim sites for 'violating the rules of Islam'.
What a great religion!

Message received if not understood
Israeli political commentators are shocked at what they call Obama's "betrayal" of Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak.
Benjamin Netanyahu has urged his government to refrain from commenting on the situation, lest they add fuel to the fire now burning a path through the middle east, but many outside the government are making their shock and anger known.
The Israelis understand just how damning Obama's comments have been and how everything coming from his administration supports the rioters, not Mubarak.
Nice of them to finally "get it" that Obama is absolutely no friend of Israel.
Actually the Israeli government already knew this; they just didn't understand the depth of his animus towards them.
