This is one of the Egyptian students arrested today. He basically turned himself in by trying to use a ticket from New York to Bozeman at an airport 700 miles from New York City and screaming like a moron, bringing attention to himself.

Not the brightest bulb in the box, I'd say.

"The missing students pose no terrorism threat, FBI officials said."

Oh. OK.

I would think that after today they would change this statement!

Must not have heard that the whole country was looking for him. Must also have missed the media alerts about beefed up security at airports.

And CNN tvs are everywhere at the airport.

What kind of dipwad at the airline counter calls the school instead of the police ASAP?

I'd have to agree. LOL

Now wait to hear this from the left:

"You would be upset and act like that too if you were lost trying to find your college in the wrong state".

They very well might just be looking for work in the U.S. and not have any terror ties. It doesn't matter, though. Either way, they should get a one-way ticket back to their home country and be permanently banned from coming to the U.S.

Um, I guess we can now assume that these Egyptians are not innocent. Anyway, what innocent person would hear the huge media uproar about his AWOL status and not go to the local police station to clear his name?

How did he get to Chicago from NYC - if he took a bus, why didn't he just go all the way to Montana?

Gee, if he only spoke some Spanish he'd qualify for catch-n-release, and maybe a Guest Worker permit!

He must have gone to NYC or Chicago public schools.

Well, my sister lives in Cairo.... Egyptians are not the smartest people around. Lots of inbreeding.

Just what I was going to say. I mean how do they determine this? Does this guy say "I am not involved with terror" and that is that?

So, will the Fed's investigate how he got from NYC to Chicago? Do we have a Islamist underground railroad?

It's hard to find good, qualified suicide-bombers these days!

No, I think we have at least 6 of the 11.
