A cruise ship carrying 1300 passengers in the Red Sea has been reported disappeared from radar by Egyptian authorities. No other details
Since there was no distress call, I'm guessing that we need a Religion of Peace alert on this one.
WABC radio news pushing the terror possibility and hoping that will push the stock market down.
It shouldn't be long before Pat Robertson weighs in on this one.
