Sinai - Sharm El-Sheikh Sharm el-Sheikh is probably the best-known town of the southern Sinai, for the simple reason that it is Sharm el-Sheikh which gave the Red Sea an international reputation as one of the world's most extraordinary diving destinations. The direct result of the blockade was the Arab-Israeli conflict of June 5th, 1967, and Sharm el- Sheikh only began to grow in 1968, under Israeli occupation. Before 1967, Sharm el-Sheikh didn't even appear on most maps, and it was politics rather than diving that first brought the world's attention to this tiny port. www.geographia.com /egypt/sinai/sharm.htm   (362 words)

The Fourth Rail: Analysis: The Sharm el-Sheikh Bombings Only by being honest with its allies can Egypt make sure that the bombing at Sharm el-Sheikh is the last of such events for a long, long time, which I suspect Mubarak does want, at least if he hopes to keep the spice flowing when it comes to the tourist trade. I strongly suspect that those who believe that a Palestinian state would somehow mollify the attitudes of al-Zawahiri or his fellow travelers are sorely mistaken, however. The former is the capital of one of the most open and accepting societies in the world, the latter is the center of an authoritarian police state so carrying out an attack in Egypt requires a far greater degree of time, ability, and patience that is not needed in order to strike Britain. billroggio.com /archives/2005/07/analysis_the_sh.php   (4000 words)
