Lots of panic still in areas of hotel (IDF radio). Egyptian infrastructure and its primitiveness aids to the confusion and inaction.

Steve Emerson on MSNBC is saying this sounds like Egyptian Islamic Jihad job, which, for all intents and purposes is al Qaeda.

Second explosion that was reported in Ras-A-Satan in Egypt has sources reporting 7 killed there (Maariv).

Some of the reactions of FReepers are pretty scary.
Glass Parking Lot?
Bomb the Pyramids?
Take back the Sinai?
Get rid of the State Department?

"Once in Egypt a highway stretches WEST from Taba to Sharm el Sheik. " Actually it's pretty much due south.

Egyptian border guards firing in the air over Israelis who are trying to get back into Israel and are not allowing them in. EGYPT CONTINUES TO KEEP THE BODER CLOSE. NOT ALLOWING ISRAELIS TO RUN BACK INTO ISRAEL AND NOT ALLOWING EMERGENCY FORCES FROM ISRAEL IN WITHOUT HINDERANCE. (IDF RADIO)

I'm with you. Prayers for the wounded and the innocent.
Hate begets hate, no matter whose side you're on. There are some pretty hateful comments on this thread so far, and they serve no useful purpose.

>Colin Powell had better be on the phone RIGHT NOW with Mubarak telling him to open that border IMMEDIATELY
Judging by the past,
Powell will urge Israel to
respond with restraint . . .

Big trauma at Taba crossing between Israel and Egypt. IDF radio reports if the situation isn't settled soon and the border opened by Egypt, casualties could even occur at the border.
