Remember those eleven missing Egyptian students? Well, today, the FBI has three of them in custody. Eight are still unaccounted for.
The first was found in Mineapolis, MN. There’s no indication in the article about how he got there nor what he was doing there. Authorities are quick to note that he “posed no terrorism threat”. Blue Crab Boulevard shares my skepticism at their quick conclusion.
Why am I not really reassured by that last remark? Oh, maybe because the FBI is apparently sparing no effort to capture these guys. Or maybe because he just happened to turn up in a city nowhere near where he was supposed to be heading.
Or maybe because I’m not stupid.
The other two turned up in Manville, New Jersey, east of New York City. As with the first, there is no indication how they got there, what they were doing there, nor any details of their apprehension.
But there is again the statement that the remaining eight pose no terrorist threat.
Curious.
Do any of you remember a certain Bugs Bunny cartoon where Bugs found himself the “guest” of a gangster named Rocky? Remember that scene when the police man cam in and Bugs had to hide Rocky in the stove?
Well, the FBI’s “no terrorist threat” statements are sure starting to sound a whole lot like “He’s not in the stove” to me.
