So, lessee: are the Egyptians "in Iraq?" So this can't be because they support us. Maybe it's because terrorists are evil and should be killed like dogs?

I can't believe any Westerners would still choose to vacation in Egypt. That said, Prayers.

[what's up]

two smaller blasts struck the area of Ras al Shitan, a camping area near the town of Nuweiba south of Taba

We camped near Nuweiba almost 20 years ago. I wonder if it's the same place. Wow.

Yes, I've read more since my first posting. I was in Eilat myself this August. Just for one day of SCUBA diving, and didn't go into Egypt. This is similar to the muslim terrorist attacks at a hotel and airport in Kenya some years ago, also targetted against Israelis on vacation.

Reports that not only Israelis, but also Spanish, French and Arab tourists killed . . . and there are still no real reports on the third site that was bombed . . . this is AQ, or an AQ spinoff . . .
