Publisher's note:  As we celebrate a very joyous season in the West, the middle east continues to boil.  How very sad.

Arutz Sheva:  At least 14 people are dead in Egypt after a huge explosion hit the Daqahliya security directorate in Mansoura on Monday night.

Some 100 people have been wounded in what seems to be the worst explosion yet since the ouster of Islamist president Mohammed Morsi.

The website of the Al-Ahram newspaper reported that the injury and death tolls are expected to soar with eyewitnesses saying that causalities are still inside the damaged building.

The head of Mansoura's security directorate was among the injured, Daqahliya governor Omar El-Shawadfy told Egypt's state television.

Al-Ahram quoted an anonymous security source as having said that two bombs went off almost at the same time.

The announcement came only days after Pyongyang announced through state media that Jang Song Thaek -- long considered the country's No. 2 power -- had been removed from all his posts because of allegations of corruption, drug use, gambling, womanizing and leading a "dissolute and depraved life."

State news agency KCNA said a tribunal examined Jang's crimes, including "attempting to overthrow the state by all sorts of intrigues and despicable methods with a wild ambition to grab the supreme power of our party and state."

The report called him "a traitor to the nation" and "worse than a dog."

National Security Council spokesman Patrick Ventrell said that there was no reason to doubt the report of Jang’s death and if true, it illustrated North Korea's "extreme brutality."
