MORRISTOWN, N.J. -- An Egyptian man found with more than 100 forms of false identification is not suspected of having terrorist ties, authorities said Wednesday.

Hani Hassan, 26, is being held in Morris County on fraud and public records tampering charges.

He was arrested July 19 in Morristown after a tip to the state attorney general's office that Hassan had obtained a driver's license using false information.

Authorities searched his Orange home, and found more than 100 forms of false identification, including Social Security cards, passports, bank account records and other documents.

Nothing to see here, move along.

This is just an isolated incident.

I'm sure he'd qualify for amnesty under Gephardt's plan or 245(i).

Well, then, obviously the guy needed all the fake ID's to buy doughnut making materials . . . yeah . . . that must be it . . . I mean the guy works in a doughnut shop . . . why else would he need all those ID's ? ? ?

God save us from dense law enforcement officials BUMP!

[mafree]

OK I'll move along---BAAAAA! BAAAAA!!

Cut off a physical digit for every fake identification card...

Is the following part of the posted article now missing for everyone else? It's gone from my thread . . . odd:

Special Agent Sandra Carroll said the FBI is not investigating Hassan.

Authorities are trying to determine what Hassan intended to do with the bogus documents, said John Hagerty, a spokesman for the state Division of Criminal Justice.

During a court appearance Tuesday, Hassan told Superior Court Judge Catherine Langlois that he works in a doughnut shop in East Hanover, and came to the United States in 1996, living here as a legal alien.

"...found with more than 100 forms of false identification..."

Any of them from Tennessee ??

)My bet is that, at least, some of them were !! !!(

OK, I'll take that last one back.

Put him and his small minded buddies in a small room with all the vodka, whiskey and rum they want to drink.

Cut off the water supply, give 'em ONE ROLL of one-ply terlit paper, and hang legal pads with crayons attached for 'em to account for the the reasons why they had all those IDs. (Crayolas or Sharpies seem to work best when they are dancing around to go the john...)

Other than that, just give 'em the run of the place with the Digital TV, computers, etc.

Looks like the moderator removed it because of the wash post / la times thing. Not sure why - it is word for word from the ap wire

You seem to forget that many Mid Easterners are used to living in squaller, so no TP and no where to pee won't phase them. Now, hold them down and force feed them raw Jimmy Dean Pork sausage or slowly lower them into a cell full of pigs or wild javalina hogs and you might get somewhere.

Damn, How sick and tired am I of you right-wing extremists picking on innocent practitioners of the Religion of Peace!

All Islam requests of you Infidel Bastards is that you surrender to the Will of Allah as expressed by His Prophet Muhammed, May Peace Be Upon Him!

But fear not, O Infidel Bastards, Allah has arranged for you to have peace ... either in Surrender (Islam) to His Holy Will, or in the Peace of the Grave. In the latter case, you will Peacefully Serve as a Slave to one of the Faithful in Paradise.

Such a deal, O Pig-Sucking Infidel, is why Muhammed (May Peace be Upon Him)uses the text of the Holy Q'uran (note PC Spelling) to address Him on High as "Allah the Merciful."

a pity this slob gets a thread instead of bullet in the head by an 'enterprising gubmint agent'-unless info he'll provide(very doubtful)is helpful....

Nothing to see here, maybe he just has 100 wives and 800 children.

You're right, I think both of our ideas would be like taking them to "Disneyland"...

Must rethink.

Imagine! This guy was caught based on a tip before the TIPS program has gone into effect! Can someone explain why again we need a formal program?

[dennisw]

Every MidEast type seems to have multiple IDs. This is getting disgusting. Is identity theft another scam these "wonderful immigrants" are up to?

They move here. Get a low wage job and start to get pissed off. They want a nicer place to live and color TV. So they look for illegal ways to make their money.

[Shermy]

Seems to be their skill. Perhaps first inspired by Palies bloating their own numbers to reap UN dollars?

Promptly insert tracking device then deport.

Just your average red blooded American guy.
