#2 "Still, it was a shock."

Don't get out much, do you, Mr. Khalil?

Ms. Dridi (and other women) ought to have the right to go anywhere they please, unaccosted.

That said, she's an IDIOT to go to someplace like that where it's just about guaranteed she'll get attacked.

I don't know what world you live in, Ms. Dridi, but I live in the one in which I don't go to countries (and spend my hard-earned money) where I am guaranteed to be attacked and/or killed. Even if it's for work. Would love to see the Pyramids. Ain't gonna happen. :-(

The important question:

Was a YouTube video involved?
