Arab bloggers respond to the bombings in London and Egypt:
Big Pharaoh annoys the terrorists; Omar of Iraq The Model pities "the regimes and media that supported the terrorists and apologized for their doings" and Sandmonkey has possibly the most important observation that I've found anywhere:
"Mona El Tahawy says what I've been saying all along: In this fight against terrorism, we are all in this together!
"There is no more "us" and "them" It is all "we". When London, Beirut and Sharm el-Sheikh are all attacked in less than 48 hours, there is no more Muslim or Christian or Jew. There is no more believer or infidel. There is no more East or West When the dead in Sharm el-Sheikh included Britons, Dutch, Egyptians, French, Kuwaitis, Spaniards, and Qataris, it is all we and we are all in this together." Of course, this is the effect the terrorists are having on good, decent people everywhere. If their murderous schemes serve to unite rather than divide us, maybe all the death and destruction will somehow be worth it.
