On July 9, 2011, Dr. 'Ismat Zaqalamah broadcasted a video on the internet where he stated ten points to establish a Coptic State to protect Copts who are colonized by Arabs [as he claimed].
He added that 25 percent of the Egyptian resources will go to Christians because they total 25 million.
During his health trip in the United States of America, Coptic Orthodox Pope Shenouda III rejected Zaqalamah's idea and warned him from his idea.
