$1.3B in Military Aid Doesn't Substitute for Good Headwork

Egyptian Forces Accidentally Kill a Group of Mexican Tourists

A joint police and military operation on Sunday "chasing terrorist elements" in Al Wahat "mistakenly" targeted…Mexican tourists
 
 


“And although the helicopter that conducted the attack belonged to the military, a spokesman for the armed forces deflected responsibility on Monday. ‘When it comes to tourists, it is a Ministry of Interior issue, not ours,’ the spokesman, Brig. Gen. Mohamed Samir, said.” – N.Y. Times



“The Egyptian government has said guides took the tourists into a restricted zone, an accusation vehemently denied by a union representing the guides.
“Hassan al-Nahla, head of Egypt's tour guides union, said the tourist group had received all the required permits and set off with a police escort” – Tony Gamal-Gabriel, Yahoo News
