Other article say that some of them have been picked up in Minneapolis, New Jersey and now Chicago. How is it that a bunch of Egyptian kids are SO well connected that they can travel all over the US and find so-called "friends and family". I hate to ask what kind of WORK they were setting out to find!?!?

Colleges so desperate for cash that they don't care if they bring terrorists to the USA.

Living near and being a frequent traveller in/out of O'Hare, I was particularly intriqued by the capture of one of the Egyptians there. How did he get from NY to Chicago? Hmmmmmmm.... inquiring minds want to know.

Wonder if TWA 800 was a test run of the "explosive liquid" approach to blowing up an airliner.

Hey, I've got an idea. Let's don't admit any "suspect groups" to the US to begin with.

The other five students were still being sought. Relatives in Egypt explained the students' failure to show up at Montana State by saying they probably wanted to find work in the United States.

Find work! They are only here for 4 weeks on a study program!

The "find work" excuse doesn't wash. As I pointed out on another thread -- the smart thing to do if you're planning to work illegally under the circumstances is to go stay the month in Montana -- learn more English and get free room and board -- and then don't take the flight back to Egypt.

" ... officials stressed there are no ties between the Egyptians and the alleged terror plot broken up by British authorities."

Possibly true .. but who's to say they are not operating a terrorist cel unto themselves and have plans for a future attack on America.

Not long ago, my next statemen would have been prefixed with .. "I'm sorry, but .. "

I don't think that way any more. I'm not sorry for how I feel .. nor how I think regarding any Middle Easterner that is in my country.

For too many years .. Saudi's, Iraqi's, Irani's, Egyptians, Afghani's, Pakistani's ... (hmmmm .. now that I type it out .. I see a common denominator ... they are all i's)

Well, anyway .. we Americans have been hated and attacked in too many different ways for me to feel like I should give any way to the 'good ones' as opposed to the bad ones.

Untill the 'good one's' come out loud and cleart .. imprisoning or killing the 'bad ones .. I ain't sorry for wanting ...

(now I'll finish that sentence)

I want every one of them out.

Exactly my thoughts! Why didn't they look for a job near campus? The story doesn't add up.

In other words, they lied to obtain a visa, and had no intention of being found.

Typical sandmaggot behavior.

I'm certain that the guy they grabbed in Chicago is a terrorist. He might very well not have known how easy or hard it is to change your ticket, but his complete lack of knowledge about what happens when you make a lot of noise in an airport these days says it all to me.

Well, we let them in to begin with, didn't we?

I still remember back in Boulder during the Oklahoma bombing, when a bunch of Saudi students started cheering when the news broke on the TV in the chow hall.

Because you are not allowed to work when you are here on a student visa!
