over the weekend there was a mention on Fox News Channel ticker crawling along the bottom indicating that somebody on the watch list was arrested on Thursday Night at Miami Dade airport - is this the same person? I couldn't help but think the timing was interesting given the experience of Eunice Stone.

This week? While you weren't looking, over the past several years, Florida has turned into a Third World enclave.

You aren't kidding! My husband and two kids flew into Miami at night a few years ago, and when I got off the plane, I said, "OMG, hun! We overshot Florida and landed in Cuba! No one is speaking English!"

Let's say there have been 100 illegal Arabs arrested for terrorism in the last year in America, out of, say, 100,000 such in the country.

BTW, 99,900 illegal arab aliens in this country may be hunky dunky with you but not with many others here.

Thanks for noticing the Cuban connection. If memory serves, didn't several of the hijackers travel into the country via a circuitous route that led them through central america and cuba? I wonder if this dude is their travel connection?

Doggie one, the Freeper Street Irregulars have been profoundly impressive since 911. I admire our researching bloodhounds so much!

Roll on with the chase, the game's afoot!

Here is an interesting parallel from last year.  Note the Cuban and the anonymous letter connection, but this time involving Afghans stuck in the Caymans after coming from Cuba.
 
Anonymous Person(s) in Cayman Islands Warned of Attack43

     For over a year, authorities in the Cayman Islands were investigating three Afghan men who arrived on the island under strange circumstances. They claimed they boarded a ship in Turkey bound for Canada, but were dropped off in the Caymans, which they initially thought was Canada. Authorities say they're sure the trio actually arrived via Cuba using Pakistani passports.

     So what's the kicker? As the Los Angeles Times revealed: “Two weeks before the hijackings, an anonymous letter sent to a Cayman Islands radio station warned that the three might be involved with bin Laden in preparing 'a major terrorist act against the US via an airline or airlines.'”

     Meanwhile, the Ottawa Citizen reports that “a man in the Cayman Islands was said to have contacted American authorities in late August saying he overheard three Afghan men in a bar discussing planned attacks on the US.” There's no way to know if this man and the letter-writer are the same person, or whether these three men are the same ones mentioned in the letter, but either way at least one person knew what was going to happen and warned the authorities and the media.

This why we need to put in Key Words.

You bet. We have a wealth of information here, but it can be hard to retrieve. I knew this was the same guy the instant I saw his name, but it took me considerable time to find the original thread.

Ashar Iqbal Butt ??? Any relation to our young med student?

None that I'm aware of. Iqbal is a common middle eastern name, though.

Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding. Now I know who you mean. Still, no connection that I'm aware of; and I think Butt is also a common name.

You forgot to mention the Egyptian who gunned down people
at the observation deck of the Empire State building
in the 1990's. (I fogotten the exact year-- late nineties I believe.) He was upset about U.S. support of Israel. Maybe someone reading this thread remembers this incident?

You're right -- the others were going Tampa to Miami, on Sept. 12 (Eunice reported their conversation the morning of 9/12, then awoke to the media coverage 9/13. This article says this guy arrived in Miami on 9/12. Slightly different facts -- same suspicious conclusion.

And is that why three guys travelling together had two cars? Maybe they were delivering a car to him, but after the incident, he ended up having to fly to Tampa?

No they weren't. The three "jokers" were heard talking on their way to Miami (running 5 hours behind) the morning of 9/12...the same day this guy arrived in Miami. This guy didn't fly to Tampa from Miami until 9/13.

There are numerous wartime benefits to be gained from reducing Illegal Alien flow from all nations, and it's past time the Administration got to work on that.

I couldn't agree with you more.
