Even the Muslim Brotherhood, which is connected to Al Quaeda is trying to involve the Copts in their struggle against the Egyptian government. There are plenty of impressing and old Coptic churches here and the Copts are allowed to sell alcohol, drink, celebrate their holidays and so on. Once in a while tensions seem to flame up, but its nothing serious.
The average guys on the streets get along. End of story.

Ya, but I wasn't talking about now. Of course Egyptians Coptics and Muslims get along. That's like saying white people and Asians in America get along - but try saying that in 1943! My point was historical, not current day.
By the way, did you see the "GhostMary" on the Coptic church roof there?
