CAIRO -- A woman activist who posted nude pictures of herself on her
blog to protest limits on free expression has triggered an uproar in
Egypt, drawing condemnations from conservatives and liberals alike.
Some liberals feared that the posting by 20-year-old university
student Aliaa Magda Elmahdy would taint them in the eyes of deeply
conservative Egyptians ahead of Nov. 28 parliamentary elections in which
they are trying to compete with fundamentalist Islamic parties.
