#1 And still more:

A total of 17 Egyptian students showed up at JFK International Airport on July 29, on their way to Bozeman. But only six made it to Bozeman.

MSU then contacted federal authorities, and the 11 missing students' visas were revoked. All are young men, ages 17 to 22.

#2 Hamvi Kassab, a Minneapolis grocer who said he is El-Dessouki's uncle, told television station KSTP that his nephew was in town to visit relatives and to inquire about attending the University of Minnesota. And what else was he doing here? Come on, come clean. Are you certain he wasn't here to take flying lessons?

#7 What the hell are 22 yr old males doing studying english in the US? Isn't 22 yr olds getting out of shcool at this time (except for the professional students - pass the bong dude). Is it just me, or does this not scream why are 20, 21 and 22 year old men doing in our country "studying"?

#8 Any Islamic MAM (Military Age Male) should be closley scrutinized before entry and forced to wear a monitoring device during his hopefully very brief stay.

#13 Kstp coverage of the story is a joke. This is the same station that took PR money from the Sauds after 9-1 and ran pro Arabia commercials. Do not trust these scum.

The one post brings up a good point, I'd put the uncle in jail and sweat the diaper off his head. Minneapolis is full of Muslim terrorist sympathizers, I forget how many have been arrested here. We even had a van load of Muslims on 9-12 casing out one of our nuclear plants. This crap is scary and nether the MSM or the FBI come clean on this information.

Because it would make the other followers of the Peophile for Profit look bad.

Dhimmitue at its best.

#14 Wait a sec - I think yesterday on TV, when they described how the two captured got separated at the airport, the guy who brought them to police said they don't speak English?
Why then they were enlisted to go to a summer course in English literature? What language that course is in?

#16 The real question is why are we still giving out student visas? On Sept 12 that program should have been put on hiatus for the duration (along with the Saudi fast-past visa program and a dozen others).

#20 I just looked at the Box Score and it obvious to me that these poor lads are VICTIMS!! America is a BIG PLACE. Imagine landing in New York, asking someone: Hey, wheres Montana??. They give ya a funny look and point generally West.

Maybe they're just LOST!!

Empathy boys, empathy!

Perhaps they were waiting for their ship to come in.

#22 The most likely innocent explanation is illegal immigration. Get in on a student visa and disappear. Many thousands do it every year, from all third-world countries.

Now, there may be additional information on this bunch that raises concern.

#25 2 apparently.
The evidence that this is not coincidence is uh everywhere.
MANVILLE.
Cheez
IF you were stuck at tghe airport and spoke only Arabic you'd end up in Jersey City not MAnville.
But if you were proceeding to targets, then you're only 15 minutes from the heart of the Pharmaceutical industry, or going the other way, 15 minutes from BAyway. Largest petroleum facility west of SAudi.

ew Jerseys extensive chemical and petroleum facilities are widely recognized as potential targets for terrorist groups. Indeed, some experts refer to the two-mile stretch of the New Jersey Turnpike directly west of New York as the most dangerous two miles in America. The close proximity of some of the states chemical plants and refineries to the regions airports, seaports, and major population centers are a major security concern. Similarly, a significant accident at one of the areas chemical facilities could impact more than a million people within the region.

#26 Oh I want to makke it clear that the second part of my previous post is a quote. My thoughts are rarely that organized.
You will be pleased to note that as I sallied forth, there were lot's of Black Crown Vics w/ antennas and cars w/ Fed license plates cruising about.

#27 Int'resting. And Dundalk (pronounced "Dun-dawk") is the residential section of the Port of Baltimore.

#28 There needs to be some sort of credible deterrent with respect to individuals from suspect countries violating the terms of their visa.

For instance, if we are still going to be so blindingly stupid as to permit these budding young terrorists into our country, we had better make them check in with authorities on a weekly basis using a fixed and traced landline to corroborate their reported geographical location.

Or impose a substantial penalty for non-reporting or overstay, such as felony conviction and prolonged imprisonment.

Better yet, a blanket prohibition of any future short term or immigration visas for themselves, all immediate family and even the most distant relations. This might have at least some deterrent value in that those who are honorably seeking to better their life would be held responsible for exactly which of their kin sets foot on our shores.

I welcome any other suggestions from fellow Rantburgers regarding how to discourage these visa violations. Short of the logical solution of banning visitors from terrorist sponsoring or harboring countries, we must put in place better protections for the American people.

#29 Montana is middle America. Who the hell in their right mind at that school would let this camel turds into their program?

How to keep them out... No answer. We are way to PC and they Muslims are taking full advantage of it. Whoever let them in to the Montana school should be fired. Fired.

Some of you may remember this. After 9-11 14 Kuwaities (sp) disapeared from a Wisconsin university. The FBI showed up and the whole story was squashed. I happened to know because my aunt was working there in the personal office. She was told to keep hush about the whole story.

So we have to ask, if Nazis were caught trying to get into the country during WWII would that be a downplayed story? No. Our Media is bent on seeing us all burn under a Muslim nuclear bomb. It's just a matter of time.

#30 Who the hell in their right mind at that school would let this camel turds into their program?

All the schools, with exceptions you can count on one hand, are run and staffed by anti-American Tranzis who cater to the cash cow of foreigners. There are big, big bucks made there. And they are bigger whores than the oil companies when it comes to tuition. Just try to make visa processing rational and see who screams the loudest.

#31 Hmm, anyone else notice that in two cases they were found in pairs? Two in Dundalk, two in NJ ...

Wonder if there is another one someplace in Chi and one in Mpls that haven't been located yet. Odd to me that they should be keeping together in cells, uhm, I mean pairs.

Nazi saboteurs who landed on the east coast during WW II were executed.

#35 Just a comment, didn't these guys vanish about the time it's reported that the Brits made the first arrests that led to the arrests of the Pakistani would-be airplane bombers?

In other words, they vanished right around the same time that the arrests first occured.

I'd be turning over the rocky mountains right about now looking for these guys, the timing is fishy as hell.
