(IsraelNN.com) An explosion occurred a short time ago in the Taba Hilton, on the Egyptian side of the border. According preliminary reports from Magen David Adom emergency medical service officials, the cause of the blast was a gas tank.
There are unconfirmed reports of dozens of injured. The IDF has already ordered helicopters into the air and MDA is mobilizing to treat the many wounded in the blast. Details to follow as they become available.
I think of all those people there for a week of happy Sukkot festivities and now this.
When will it end???
F**** A**Holes
That tick me off Yonif
Spanish and French tourists among the casualties. Perhaps appeasement doesn't work after all.
NFC Israeli news-site reports thousands of Israelis trying to get back into Israel and are flocking to the border.
Fox doesn't have many remote sources, and CNN is still working out how to paint it as Bush's fault.
"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."
Please can't we just get along. (sob sob crap)
I hope Israel hits back hard.
Sadly, Kerry could use this to get the migrating Jews back into his camp: "I promise to stop giving aid to Egypt!" Bush better think of this first.
It would be great if some people would actually travel outside the US and realize that the world doesn't fall into their narrow pre-conceived notion of what they think it is.
Egypt tried to play it off as a gas explosion at first. Now with two more explosions they can't play it off any longer.
YEAH SPain and France maybe it not good idea to surrender to terrorism
I expect that from the French I didn't expect from Spain remember this country that gave the world Bad a*** King Ferinard and Queen Isabella
Assume Israel hits back somehow. Then they hit Israel again. The Israel hits back again....and it goes on and on and on and on....
Yuo're wrong in that option E is available for Bush, he will simply never choose it. THat is the sad part in all this.
Israeli security authorities calling on Israelis in Egypt to leave immediately and come back into Israel. (IDF Radio).
Too bad these Istaeli's couldn't heed the Sept 7th warning. There is no safer place for Israeli citizens then within the borders of Israel.
Did these folks really think that Egypt was going to look after their well=-being?
Vacation should be within non-Arab borders - easy for me to say now - too bad they didn't think.
LOL!
Blowing up the pyramids is real bright.
Please, I don't need your favors. Don't send me any more mail.
What was your opinion on America hitting Afghanistan?
IDF radio reporter - It's like the exodus of the Jews from Egypt happening right now
"Assume Israel hits back somehow. Then they hit Israel again. The Israel hits back again....and it goes on and on and on and on...."
And that's somehow differentfrom the present situation because............?
