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.

I get the impression from the story that no one bothered to flag the tickets for the 11 missing students and quite possibly, if this guy had just kept his mouth shut, could have boarded a flight. As someone else said, how did the get there from NYC?

“They say he was kind of fidgety, moving around and kind of talking in a loud voice, which caused for a little bit of alarm,” Bulger said.


Man. Its a good thing they're stupid.

Par for the course when it comes to college students.

"and the Delta supervisor and they went a little farther in their investigation...."

So, they never Red Flagged these pre-paid tickets out of New York?

Where have they been and who was helping them survive in a foreign country? Not a terrorism risk? Will the person at the FBI with the brain please imprison and then deport these Arab Muslim males 17-22 yrs. old.

And send the rest back with them.

I'd disagree. Now he has an excuse.

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

We had better hope he represents the height of the IQ pool that the jihadists have to pick from.

This guy basically tipped himself off to authorities. The FBI officials can only claim to be standing around at the right airport! Hopefully they won't try to take credit for "super-sleuthing" this bust

Before I believe, "The missing students pose no terrorism threat", I want to hear the FBI's reasoning behind that statement.

Prove it to me FBI!!

And how about busting the bureaucrats that let these "students" in the country in the first place? Huh Chertoff - how about it??

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

I hope this "student" has enough brain matter to tell his interrogators where the other "students" might be. If he was screaming like a moron at the airport, I hope they have him squealing like a pig at the interrogation. To give an element of drama, they should play "Dueling Banjos" From The Original Soundtrack: Deliverance and have sleep deprivation techniques like the sound of pigs squealing and grunting over a loudspeaker.

just a dry run to see how long it takes us to round up these fellows.... also a nice way of seeing what kind of tracking system we're now using...

remember, in a guerrilla war, it's all about a continuous probing and gathering of intel. That way you have an entire picture for future operations. The students now have to "show up". No big deal.

Now the next time they'll try to maybe bring "equipment or furniture" when they "move to college"...just to see if we're monitoring that.

Maybe get somebody a job at the airport or with security to see if an insider can facilitate movement of their people.

We'll be hit. It's gonna sting. Maybe then the dems and the libs can stfu.

One little thing that the libs and islamo-facists forgot. We dropped two nukes on Japan, burned it's capital to the dirt, left every major city in Germany unable to have a building with one brick atop another and locked up every single Japanese person on the west coast.

When our country finally gets p#ssed off, we tell the p@ssies to STFU and we will destroy you, your kids, all your cities and then build a democracy on top of your ashes.

We are in WW III. Not much to do except pray and hope that my family doesn't get hurt when terrorism visits our shores.

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

EVERY MUSLIME is a terrorist threat! When are we going to take the muslims at their own word?: that they intend to impose the sharia throughout the world! We should shut down their schools, mosques, and deport all of them (including any American turncoat converts) back to their wastelands! Can you imagine our parents' allowing German or Japanese exchange students during WWII?!

IT'S ISLAM, STUPID!

I have this nagging feeling that this guy is part of the "8/22 gang". I hope that I am WRONG, but I think that we may be witnessing the outing of just parts of imanutjob's 8/22 plans.

“He was raising his voice for the level for the counter agent to call for the police officer to come over”
The man, Ahmed Abou El Ela, 21, was found to be one of the missing Egyptian students....

Two were arrested in suburban Baltimore? I'm in suburban Baltimore, and this is the first I am hearing of this.
