Suicide Bombers Kill Dozens in Egypt

    And so it continues, after some years of relative quiet Egypt is back on the fundmentalist hit list big time.

    from bbc
    At least 62 people have been killed and scores more wounded in a string of bomb attacks in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm al-Sheikh.

    An explosion in the Old Market area was followed by two blasts in the Naama Bay area, where a car bomb tore off the front of the Ghazala Gardens Hotel.

    Foreign nationals and Egyptians are among the victims, police said.

    It is the worst attack in Egypt since 1997, when Islamic militants killed 62 tourists and Egyptians in Luxor.

    In a statement posted on an Islamic website, a group calling itself the Abdullah Azzam Brigades, al-Qaeda, in Syria and Egypt, said it carried out the bombings, the Associated Press news agency reported, although the claim has not been verified.

    Mike.
