Car Bomb Blows Up in Egypt's Sinai
2013-10-31
[An Nahar] A boom-mobile intended for Egyptian troops in the Sinai went kaboom! on Wednesday without causing any injuries, security officials said.

The bomb near the north Sinai town of Sheikh Zuwayid was discovered before the planned attack.

It blew up as a bomb squad team approached the car, but did not cause any injuries, the sources said.

The sources said the military was tipped off to the bomb by a bad boy locked away
Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please!
after trading gunfire with soldiers earlier in the day.

The military has sent armor and helicopters in the desert and mountains north of the peninsula to crush a bad boy insurgency since the army overthrew president Mohammed Morsi
...the former president of Egypt. A proponent of the One Man, One Vote, One Time principle, Morsi won election after the deposal of Hosni Mubarak and jumped to the conclusion it was his turn to be dictator...
in July.
