6 of 11 Egyptian students now in custody

21 minutes ago

Six of the 11 Egyptian exchange students who failed to show up for their college program are now in custody after three additional students were arrested Thursday, the FBI said.

El Sayed Ahmed Elsayed Ibrahim, 20, and Alaa Abd El Fattah Ali El Bahnasawi, 20, were arrested at a residence in Dundalk, Md., outside Baltimore, by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

Chicago police detained Ahmed Mohamed Mohamed Abou El Ela, 22, at OHare International Airport as he was attempting to book a flight to Montana, the FBI said. Immigration agents later took El Ela into custody.

All are being held on administrative immigration violations because they did not report on time to their monthlong program at Montana State University in Bozeman, Mont.

None of the students is considered a terrorism risk

Unbelievable that the MSM and government thinks people are stupid enough to fall for this.

I jumped on FR about 6:30 a.m. and I have noticed that throughout the day that Reuters, AP/Yahoo have not listed one single byline other than Ryan Lenz. Shine a light on a cockroach and watch him scurry! So, we don't actually know who wrote the last line of this article:

NONE OF THE STUDENTS IS CONSIDERED A TERRORISM RISK.

Proof positive that the MSM is far more stupid than the easily duped public could possibly be, for confirmation, please see News Page article re LA Times hit piece by Nick Truce.

A bomb in the I-95 tunnel would play havoc with traffic on the heavily travelled route from NY to Florida -- and the FSKey bridge carrying alternate Beltway traffic is also in Dundalk.

Excerpt from Fox News report:

The sister of another of the students — 18-year-old Mustafa Wagdi, who is still missing — said she spoke to him on the day he arrived in Egypt and a second time five days ago.

He assured her "that he is OK and he is living with his colleagues," but he did not say where, the sister said in a phone interview from Mansoura. She refused to give her name because of worries of trouble with Egyptian security services over the incident.

The sister was quoted in the Egyptian press as saying her brother had told her over the phone that he would stay in the U.S. to find work. Speaking to The Associated Press, she denied making those comments, saying she didn't know what he was doing.

But she added that if her brother had decided to look for work, "I know that it's wrong to do, but everybody does it."

There you have it. Throughout the world America is famous as a magnet for illegal immigrants. You can be sure al Queda and Hezebola pick up on this years ago.

Perhaps thinking about what their pics would be like on television after they carry out their mission?

I had the same thought. It reminded me of the photo spread of Atta, et al, after 9/11. They had the same look of serious/malicious intent on their faces.

Dundalk...
Maybe not a significant Muslim population in overall numbers, but they do manage to pop up in the darndest places. Last year's pre-emptive harbor tunnel closings had a Dundalk connection.

Purely coincidental, I'm sure. No doubt these typical college kids had heard about the not-to-be-missed pizza in Dundalk.

Dundalk is just outside of Glen Burnie where BWI is located.

I had to lay down for an hour I'm so sick with fear.

This was the (aborted) kickoff, it's just beginning.

Glad I already live in the hills, don't have to run for them.

Hey! I'm 20 minutes outside of Baltimore. I'm definitely a 'Ballimer' gal, 'hun'.

Dundalk has a nasty reputation in the area that people do not visit and is referred to as an 'icon' of redneck. Sorry to anybody who lives there, but it is the armpit of the Baltimore area.

One has to wonder how many "students" preceded these guys and are in similiar programs in or headed to other universities around the country. It is that time of year.

Notice, too, that the article said "the day he arrived in Egypt ..."

I did a double-take on that one when I saw it earlier. Where did he come FROM? I'm hoping it was just a misspeak and should have said "the day he arrived [in the US] *from* Egypt ..."

It's sometimes hard to tell stupidity or carelessness from evildoing.

Yep. I must admit I'm a little worried. Never underestimate what Islamic madmen will do.

Oh, redneck. That's not nasty! "Gangsta" is nasty. "Mobbed up" is nasty. "Redneck" not so nasty.

Yea, but it's not like country redneck, but low income housing, littered streets with strip clubs, drug addicts, and alcoholics.

LOL, I don't have a Balmer accent, but I do say hon, hon... : )

and truly, I do not want to offend anybody with my description of Dundalk. Maybe it's shaped up. I haven't been back in years because of my impression.

Dudalk is a residential neighborhood. There would be very little reason to visit it as part of a tour of Baltimore, unless row homes from the post ww2 boom are of particular interest to you.
