Hmmmm........It's a bloody Palm Sunday in Egypt as the country's state run media has just reported that at least 15 people were killed by an explosion at a Coptic Christian church in the northern part of the country during a service to celebrate Palm Sunday
According to state-run al-Ahram newpaper, at least 42 others were wounded in the explosion at Mar Grigis Coptic church in Tanta roughly 60 miles (96 kilometers) north of Cairo.
