More important still, is the fact that these tourists/ strangers are considered in Islam- as per Quranic terminology- 'Traveling Aliens" which means that a true Islamic state should provide for them and look after them for their entire stay. They are even entitled to alms and donations and all aspects of goodwill related to the concept of “Traveling Alien" in the Quran that was mentioned several times in the contexts of Goodwill, Generosity, Compassion and Benevolence.</span></b></span></span></div>

This is what young desperate men have been taught in education, media, mosques, Al Azher and all different types of institutions in the era of Mubarak who has managed to redirect peoples' anger towards the West, America and Israel instead of himself. In Mubarak's era, people are taught that the cause of their problems is not corruption, dishonesty, totalitarianism, torture and the astonishing helplessness and failure of Mubarak's government; instead it is America, Israel and the West. Thus, as long as we cannot confront those powers, we could at least kill the tourists that come to us from their countries.</span></b></span></span></div>
