Skolem45 0 #1 July 23, 2005 QuoteA series of explosions, including at least four car bombs, struck the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheik early Saturday, hitting several hotels packed with European and Egyptian tourists. Security officials said at least 45 people died in the deadliest attack in Egypt in nearly a decade. That's what the Egyptians get for blindly following Bush into invading Iraq! Oh wait... they didn't do that. Face it people, "Let's stop doing whatever it is they don't like and they will leave us alone" is not a viable policy.

jshatzkin 0 #3 July 23, 2005 Extremists have one goal: "If it can't be my way, then it won't be ANY way!". There is no compromise, only destruction of everything that does not fit them. On a side note: Sharm el Shiekh is beautiful. I vacationed there once. Too bad I have no desire to ever return. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnRich 4 #4 July 24, 2005 Maybe Egypt will now get their fat-ass off the fence and get actively involved in fighting against terrorism. So, what do the British public polls say about support for the fight against terrorism now that it has come to roost in their country? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OK, there have been terrorist attacks in the UK on a fairly regular basis since 1969. In the US they mostly turned a blind eye to the PIRA and sent the terrorists lots of money until suddenly on 9/11 the US got a bad dose of terrorism too....

Frenchy68 0 #8 July 24, 2005 QuoteMaybe Egypt will now get their fat-ass off the fence and get actively involved in fighting against terrorism. Egypt has been one of the most active anti islamic terrorism country in the Middle East. Saddat was assassinated by terrorsits. Since then Moubarak has been pretty active trying to quell them (as well as other political groups that oppose him...).
