Mavenette, the proprietor of the Cynicistan blog, is in Egypt, and emails this report (printed here by permission):
To answer your question, the initial reaction here in Egypt was "Ya Allah, there goes some crazy Muslims again!" Everyone that I talked to here seemed positive that no Egyptians had something to do the London bombings, unlike Sept 11th. As for the Egyptian chemist in London, the Egyptian press is protraying him as a scapegoat.
I asked why they felt Egyptians would be part of Sept 11th, but not part of the London attacks.
Remember, the ringleader of the 9/11 19 hijackers, Mohammed Atta, was an Egyptian.
