Why Egypt? I understand why a fundamentalist Muslim group would want to attack the UK or Spain or America, or even Bali, but why Egypt? I'm sure there's an explanation, but I can't think of it off the top of my head.
At any rate, bombings suck.

Why Egypt?
I don't really know, but I would speculate that it is for the same reason that nearly half of the 9/11 attackers came from Egypt. Egypt is the home of some serious fundamentalist/Wahhabist agitation, fueled as much as curbed by the very repressive Mubarak government, which is heavily aided by the US government.
Same as Saudi Arabia, where attacks have also occurred.
