Anti-Terror Protest in Egypt


Despite the fact that some Egyptian security experts apparently blamed the recent Sharm el-Sheikh bombings on the Middle East’s favorite boogey man—the Jews—a number of brave young Egyptians have taken it upon themselves to let the world know that they oppose the real terrorists. Bravo to Big Pharaoh (who was recently interviewed by National Public Radio) and Sandmonkey and all of their comrades.

As an aside, reading BP's post reminded once again how fortunate I am to live in a democracy. Unfortunately, BP and friends were hassled a bit by the Egyptian police for doing something that we Americans sometimes take for granted. Read it about it, here. Also, check out Sandmonkey's description of the protest and photos here.
