for a country that relies on tourism, it is not looking good for them, though i guess thats what daesh want
its good to see the Egyptians taking no nonsense from them. clearly this shows the muslim world aren't all in it together as some would like to have you believe.
It is worrying for Egypt, they seem an easy target for the terrorists.
No, Frank went to Butlins this year.Originally Posted by Mrs Steve R wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 12:06
I'm glad I went a few years back and visited the pyramids and the Cairo museum ( an amazing place) but I wouldn't go anywhere the place with these lunatics thinking killing people for some mumbo jumbo they believe in
The worlds a dark place ATM and it's turning innocent people into discriminating others, I suppose this is one of the things they're being successful at
a real shameOriginally Posted by tigerbaybluebird wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 14:28

Religion is, basically, a way for people to comprehend mortality. Things become a whole lot clearer when you realise that this is your time - once you're gone, you're gone. I'd sooner waste time talking crap on here than following some deity who, even if He existed, comes across as a sadist.Originally Posted by ElyBlueAJ wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 16:03
Exactly, let's be honest religion is used in the Middle East as a tool to make the population subservient. That's why in Islam especially they are against education, they don't want people thinking for themselvesOriginally Posted by Loya Jirga wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 16:10
that makes all the sectarian wars in the Middle East worth itOriginally Posted by tigerbaybluebird wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 16:07
Education is religion's biggest threat. If God is truly good (in whatever guise) and the creator of all - then creating something like this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acanthamoeba_keratitis takes a sick sense of humour.Originally Posted by ElyBlueAJ wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 16:33
You'll all go to hell for this.
Not sure that is the product of religion is it? It's more like a group of people clubbing together to help out others. Very commendable, but not sure the fact they were Muslim was the driver there.Originally Posted by tigerbaybluebird wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 16:07

They've killed two (probably muslim) Egyptian policeman now.
And that guy in the U.S.A who shot the policeman "in support of I.S"
The media made a big thing ages ago of reporting that I.S were calling on all supporters to attack police and military personnel. Well done, media, it worked. So, if I.S state that they want supporters to attack hospitals or trains or schools or shopping centres, presumably the media would report this, knowing full well that some dickheads will read the reports and go out and carry out the same.
There is more to all this than just a group of extremists.
Probably.
It doesn't matter if the Egyptian police were Muslim, they'd still be regarded as kafir by extremistsOriginally Posted by Sir Sidney Ruff-Diamond wrote on Sat, 09 January 2016 16:50
lol - they didnt do that when the Somerset downs were flooded a few years back did they -
perhaps they just want to do something that will shine a good light on themselves rather than ISIS dominated publicity
