U.S. authorities have said the missing students are not suspected of any connection to the London plot.

What about the American Plot?

CURRENT UPDATE (posted at 2:04am)

9 of 11 Egyptian students now in custody

WASHINGTON - Nine of 11 Egyptian exchange students who recently entered the United States and failed to appear at their college program were in custody Saturday after three were arrested in Des Moines, Iowa, officials said.

They were Ahmed Refaat Saad El Moghazi El Laket, age 19; Mohamed Ibrahim El Sayed El Moghazy, age 20; and Moustafa Wagdy Moustafa El Gafary, age 18.

The students were to attend a monthlong program at Montana State University in Bozeman, Mont. A group of 17 students arrived in New York on July 29. Six reported to Bozeman on time.

After Montana State repeatedly tried to contact the missing students, it notified Department of Homeland Security officials and registered the Egyptians as no-shows in a system to track foreign students developed after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

...Will they torture him?"

What a question! He should ask other questions such as, "Did he blow up something (already)? Did they make him talk?"

All of them should have to wear tracking devices on their ankles until they depart.

After 9/11 the universities were one of the first to complain about their foreign students being subjects of interest. Does the government pay the universities for foreign students? The answer is always $$$$.

It amazes me too that these men were let in the USA without a second thought. They fit the exact profile that even the MSM has accepted as the M.O. for Islamic terrorists.

Customs and Immigration need to investigate their personnel to see if there are any "insiders" allowing this kind of thing to happen.

One was arrested at Chicago's O'Hare trying to use his ticket from NY to MT. He got irate at the ticket counter and that's what flagged the local Chicago police officer to take him aside for questioning.

Was he trying to get to Montana from Chicago or was he trying to cash in the ticket to another destination? I wonder what caused him to be irate.

I fly frequently, I get from point A to point B 10 to 15 times a year, year after year, and never have had a situation where I needed to become irate.

Egyptian security officials said they believe the 11 students, who had no criminal records or known ties to Islamic militants..

Which is why Islamic militants use them...

"He tried to check in for a Chicago-to-Montana flight using an invalid ticket marked for a New York departure, Chicago police said.

El Ela raised his voice and became unruly after an employee at a Delta ticket counter refused to let him exchange the ticket for a valid one." (SunTimes)

When we get rid of Ted Kennedy. Ted Kennedy a few months after 911 set up a program to make it easier for students from the middle east to come here. I forget the details but I remember being pretty outraged when I read about it, I mean of all things to be focusing on after 911!

Don't any of these people realize that if they , in their countries , would just lose the insane ,radical, rabid , Islamic m/o their countries would prosper because the world would be much more willing to engage with them ? They would find traveling and studying elsewhere far easier too.
They have only their evil hate spewing mullahs and other forms of islamic teachers to thank for the chilly reception they get everywhere now. And if al Kayduh ever does succeed in their next super murder plot , whoa unto any & all moslem students and/or other moslem immigrants living or studying in the United States. The government will not be able to stop or contain the wrath of the people.
