In the last two days ,as you all know ,the opposition to the ICP   idea and dream had been very active. I know it is disheartening to say the least.I understand that some of those individuals opposing and protesting may have legit concerns that should be addressed but they didn't bother to ask questins ,instead they deemed it appropriate to insult ,smudge, and accuse those who have been working hard to build consensus and awareness regarding the ICP. When they were asked to cooperate,and participate, they refused unless we approve their demands of eliminating others. They appointed them selves prosecuters ,judges ,jury even excutioners. To those I quate  Jesus in saying:( DO NOT JUDGE,OR YOU TOO WILL BE JUDGED ,FOR THE SAME WAY YOU JUDGE OTHERS,YOU WILL BE JUDGED AND THE MEASURE YOU USE,IT WILL BE MEASURED TO YOU.WHY DO YOU LOOK AT THE SPECK OF SAWDUST IN YOUR BROTHER'S EYE AND PAY NO ATTENTION TO THE PLANK IN YOUR OWN EYES??.  I also know that we expected to face tremendous difficulties from the day we decided to try to make that dream come true, it is true thogh that we didn"t expect the multiple back stabbing to be that vicious and persistant. It is depressing to see this noumber of individuals who showed up their true colores for no reason other than personal vendetta against Michael Moneer or others in the commitee,. I'm almost tempted to mention which names demanded to eliminate, from the committees ,other names from  their supposedly their best friends,both sides where some of the names I found on the list of those who Signed the press release against the ICP!!!!! It is disgusting and I  know that those in the establishing committee had been bending backward to prevent further division amongest already splintered ,useless multiple associations  and organizations,which exists only on the minds of those few mebers of each one of these organzations. If we fail to show enouph responsibility to continue this mission at this time ,I know for sure this opportunity will be lost for many years to come ,I dare not to allow myself to submitt to despair inspite of this bullying eventhogh , the idea seemed exessively tempting. I know also that the members of the Establishing committee had the same thoughts ,as we are constantly in communication multiple times a day.,,I call on you the sincere copts to help us ,show your support now before they succeed in killing the Dream we all have.As for the individuals who attempted so hard to kill the dream and the idea I,ll try to forget and forgive  because  we don't have the option to fail our  persecuted Coptic  brothers any longer ,not when we can do something about it, for those I choose to quate Jesus yet again.(FOR THEY NO NOT WHAT THEY ARE DOING)   Dr. Hany Shenouda
