Yes, it was quite a senseless attack, killing innocent doctors & nurses

.

I felt quite safe too, probably safer than most big western cities. The locals were very friendly and courteous, and always ready to give you the time of day while I poked a camera in their face

. I guess its the few bad eggs/extremists that spoil things I guess

Just a couple of corrections
The 99 names are not the Prophet Mohammed but for God.
The grafitti on the wall does not mention Christians.
Thank you again.

Thanks

. My vague memory is to blame for the errors
