Egypt sweeps Sinai for attackers after resort carnage
2005-07-25
CAIRO: Egypt launched a vast manhunt on Sunday after the multiple bombings in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh that killed 88 people and fuelled global terror fears after the London attacks. Egypt's deadliest attacks, that came at the peak of the tourist season and killed at least nine foreigners, drew a barrage of condemnation from around the world and dealt a blow to a regime increasingly exposed to Islamist terrorism just weeks ahead of a landmark presidential election. The bombings, claimed by an Al Qaeda group, sent chills through a world still reeling from a series of attacks in London.

#2  It has been reported that they are seeking around a half dozen Paki's at the moment. But remember that whatever happens, Paki's have nothing to do with it, right?

#1  Fat lot of good that'll do, if they are looking for Beduins, when it's Al Qaeda that's taken credit for the booms.
