.... if we want to visit the Pyramids, the Spinx and Sharm Al-Sheikh....
They'll all be shut down if this guy guy gets his way....
Adel Shehato, a senior official in Egyptian Islamic Jihad ... said that if the mujahideen came to power in Egypt, they would launch a campaign of Islamic conquests aimed at subjecting the entire world to Islamic rule. Muslim ambassadors would be appointed to each country, charged with calling upon them to join Islam willingly, but if the countries refused, war would be waged against them. He also described the nature of the Islamic state to be established in Egypt: there would be no trade or cultural ties with non-Muslims; tourist sites at the pyramids, the Sphinx, and Sharm Al-Sheikh would be shut down "because the tourists come [there] to drink alcohol and fornicate," and all tourists wishing to visit Egypt would be required to comply with the conditions and laws of Islam; all art, painting, singing, dancing, and sculpture would be forbidden, and all culture would be purely Islamic.
Another report here.
What at time for us to be arriving in Saharan Africa, in the wake of the "Arab Spring", but in the Fall....
