Coptic Christians and Muslims, Joint News Conference for Peace

Charity head says 'Innocence of Muslims' filmmaker misled him - latimes.com

"Coptic Christians and Muslims leaders held a joint news conference on the steps of Los Angeles City Hall on Monday to condemn the movie and the violent reaction to it. Bishop Serapion said a few "fanatical individuals" should not define the Coptic community, and Maher Hathout of the Muslim Public Affairs Council called on Muslims to ignore hateful portrayals of their religion.

"Those are neither Muslims nor Copts," he said of the filmmakers and the protesters. "Those are people who are psychologically diseased."
