Followers of Sheik Rahman, the cleric jailed in the US for plotting to bomb the World Trade Center and other New York sites, have claimed responsibility for the massacre of 58 tourists Monday in Luxor, Egypt. (Four Egyptians were also killed in the attack, and six gunmen fell when police returned their fire.) President Mubarak lashed out at the radicals, whose name translates to the Islamic Group, and at the security around the temple where the assault took place.
