Then there is precedent for this attack...

I wouldn't think that an attack in this area would have much impact on oil prices. An attack a few hundred miles away in the Suez Canal could really cause a problem though.

Let me put it this way-Kristol looked like he was going to slap Whine, er Juan, when he defended Mcarhtys treason. Brit just put his head in his hands..

Juan was absolutely astounded that the entire panel, including Chris Wallace could not see how Mary Mc was "right" in exposing the secret prisons.

Britt just put his head in his hands when Bill Krystal was trying to explain the law of supply and demand on oil prices to Juan.

Juan was dumber by far than his usual dumb.

All this was on Fox News Sunday show. Check your freepmail.

Looks like they took out at least one hotel. Various reports of dead from 20-100.

22 killed, at least 150 wounded in Dahab blasts
By JPOST STAFF AND AP



Twenty-two people were killed and at least 150 were wounded on Monday night in three massive explosions in Dahab, on the east of Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.

People were frantically trying to escape the area and dozens of ambulances were at the scene, Zaka reported.

The bombs were apparently placed on a bridge, in the El-Khalheeg Hotel cafeteria and near a police station prior to the explosions

The Sinai resort is commonly frequented by Israeli holidaymakers and is located on the Gulf of Aqaba on the eastern side of the Sinai Peninsula.

Germans, Italians and British tourists were also reported to be in the area.
