ATLANTA — Friends say a Georgia Tech graduate student is in critical condition after an apartment fire off 10th Street in midtown.

Atlanta police told Channel 2’s Erica Byfield that Saamar Akhshabi was burned from an incendiary device in the incident.

WSBTV.com reported the explosion as breaking news Tuesday just after 8:30 p.m. When investigators arrived on scene they found the international student with severe burns to his hands, arms and chest.

International; what an interesting description of that student.

Thanks for the link. Hmm...

Before joining Georgia Tech in Fall 2009, I spent four wonderful years at University of Tehran completing my B.Sc. in computer engineering.

Nothing to see here. Move along, please.

The fact that he considered his four years at University of Tehran as wonderful should make one really curious.

Actually just the fact that he is an Iranian is enough to keep extremely close watch on him. Probably should not even have been allowed in the country.

Work accident. Like the “Palestinian” “Diplomat” killed in an explosion in Prague.

You know, you’re not eligible for a Purple Heart for self inflicted wounds, or wounds from friendly fire, unless engaged with the enemy at the time. Do Islamokazis who go “boom” still get the 72 grapes (or is it raisins?) even if they don’t take any infidels with them?

I just did send Drudge the link. I truly think this is national newsworthy. Is he more likely to note if several send? If so, please flood his site.

“...the GA Joint Terrorism Task Force was on the scene and in charge of the scene within minutes.”

They’ve probably got it completely scrubbed and ready for occupancy already. Nothing to see here, folks, let’s keep it moving.

He probably considered it a threat but a real one. We surely should take it as a warning.

He is Iranian. Can they just come here to the Great Satan and study? Their government allows it? We allow it? Why are we educating these folks? Who is paying for his doctoral work?
