More Bombs in Egypt

So i am out tonight drinking up a storm with my friends when i hear about bombs in Sharm El sheikh in Egypt. AGAIN. WTF? So yeah. 7 explosions, 4 cars, 25 dead, 100 injured. El ghazala Garden, the Hardrock Cafe and KFC reportedly destoryed. We are fucked. All I know is this: If they don't fire the minister of interior now, then this man will never get fired. They should though; His security failures are too enermous. He should at least resign. Oh well, More updates to come soon, I am sure!

The problem isn’t the interior minister (though I’m not Adli’s biggest fan), what do you expect him to do, put roadblocks up every 100 yards and sandbags in front of every government building reminiscent of Nasser’s era? If London, with their little spy cams on every street corner and the US with its trillion dollar budget cant stop them what the hell are we supposed to do. No man, more security isn’t the answer, soft target are just that; soft. I don’t know I’m still too much in a rage to try to make sense.

Highlander I usually say stupid random things when I get this angry. It’s so bad this time I can almost see the vein on my forehead.

What a crazy world this is. Sometimes, I think the solution is to go hurt the terrorists even more than they could possibly hurt you.

God, this is disgusting. I fucking hate these terrorists. I'm with Bush on this one, they need to be crushed and destroyed by any means necessary. Did you see that, the number is now 50 dead. 50! Most of whom are Egyptians! Who are these people to kill their fellow countryment? Who are these people who destroy the economy of their own country? Who are these people who take away the livelihood (tourism) of millions of their countrymen? Do they have an identity? No, they are soulless nationless creatures, who feel at home nowhere except the depths of Hell. Terrorists can do infinitely more damage to Egypt than Bush or Sharon ever will. Sam, I am so sad today. I just hope this gets as much attention in the Western media as the London bombings. Though it won't. BBC and MSNBC have it on their front page, apparently CNN considers a guy getting shot in a subway in London a higher priority than 50 dead people in Egypt. Fucked-up media...

It's up to 49 dead and climbing.

Is there going to be anyone from the West who will want to visit Egypt, if these bombings continue?

Obviously, with tourism being a large factor in Egypt's economy, events like this have a destabilizing effect and they need to be combatted briskly, ala what the British cops did to
that bombing suspect.

Set up a protest against terrorism tomorrow in the streets of Cairo. Do it. Call everyone you know, join together, link up this Egyptian blogosphere and to the streets.

Oh, and i forgot to add:

This would have never happened if Egypt had withdrawn her troops from Iraq and weren't supporting the Jews in their conflict against the Palestinians.

And we must acknowledge that poverty is the root cause of Terrorism, brought on by the American goverment supporting dictatorial regimes.

Jeffrey, part of the reason some campaings only brought ten or twelve prisoners is because some marines did not bother taking prisoners. I doubt I would have in the pacific based on what I have heard and read about the conflict.

Jeffrey,

The Japanese had an identity, a nation, a uniform. You knew who they were. You could count them.

Who are these terrorists?You don't find out someone has become a terrorist until they've blown up something & then it's too late. They're already dead.

How do we know how many of them are out there?How do we know when they're all gone?How do we know when this is really over?

"Most Japanese soldiers did NOT surrender."____I think this extreme refusal to surrender is peculiar to the Japanese military tradition. The Islamists do not have a Samurai code of honor.

I seriously cant believe what happened, sharm is one of the most beautiful places in egypt, and i cant believe the number of innocents dead and the amount of damage... It makes me soo angry!

Mister Ghost,
"This would have never happened if Egypt had withdrawn her troops from Iraq and weren't supporting the Jews in their conflict against the Palestinians."

I dont agree with u, this would have happened anyways... The terrorists are aiming to do the most damage possible and they know what they doing, we have to understand this in order to be able to fight them...
