Tux of Borg Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 The FBI has issued an urgent nationwide alert for 11 Egyptian students who entered the United States last week but failed to show up for their courses at Montana State University. An FBI advisory says there are, at present, no known connections to any terrorist group but that the students are to be "approached with caution" and taken into custody. They "are here illegally and wanted for questioning," the advisory says. The advisory comes just over a month before the five-year anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks on the United States. "This is of very serious concern and is being closely tracked," said Rep. Peter King (R-NY), Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee. The FBI says the Egyptians arrived at John F. Kennedy Airport in New York on July 29 and disappeared. The advisory says the alert is nationwide but that there is specific concern the Egyptians may be on the Eastern Seaboard.

dib Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Order a 'shoot on sight' that might inspire them to contact the authorities

Kevbeau Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Nobody thought 11 Eqyptian men enrolling in Montana State University to be a little odd?

I can stop now.
