Two large scale terrorist attacks in two days, likely all Islamic: Egypt and Turkey

Today in Egypt, a large bomb went off near a Coptic cathedral. Surprisingly, the Washington Post, normally not prone to report Islamic discrimination against everyone else, actually gives a brief background on how they treat the Copts historically, with the report of the explosion. The Trump effect? An analysis would tell.

25 dead:

Major bomb blast outside soccer stadium in Turkey:

Bloodbath in Istanbul: Terrorists kill at least 38 and wound another 166 in machine gun and twin bomb attack on Turkish riot police outside major Istanbul soccer match

Twin blasts rocked Istanbul this evening, with a car bomb detonating at a football stadium as a suicide attacker struck at a nearby park, killing 38 people and injuring 166 more.

‘Two bombings may have taken place according to our understanding: one outside the stadium… the other at Macka Park,’ Turkey’s Interior Minister Suleyman Soylu said.

‘The explosion at Macka Park is believed to have been carried out by a suicide bomber,’ he added.

The Turkish government imposed a media ban in the wake of the blasts, citing ‘national security’ concerns.

Turkish site, Hurriyetdaily covers this attack, likely from the Islamic State, here. 

(Apparently Kurds have taken responsibility for this attack)

    “Concrete barriers have been erected at Birmingham’s German Market to prevent suicide bombers.

    The bollards were put up this week to safeguard the thousands who flock to the seasonal city centre attraction each day.

    It is estimated that 5.5 million people will visit the market in Colmore Row and Bennetts Hill before it closes on December 29”
