MIAMI - The three medical students who caused a terror scare by allegedly joking about Sept. 11, have been kicked out of the hospital where they were heading to continue their medical studies.

Ayman Gheith, Omar Chaudhary and Muhammed Kambiz Butt - all U.S. citizens and students at Ross University Medical School - had planned to work and study at Larkin Hospital in Miami.

I'd like to see if all the people defending these three are as upset by the treatment, and joblessness, of Stephen Hatfill.

I think it's funny they got booted by the hospital. It's not funny they're going to show up in another state. A

All day long, we've been receiving threatening, hate e-mails and phone calls of a racial nature!
THIS IS NOT RACIAL, IT IS SURVIVAL!

Hmmm... Did Hatfill make anthrax jokes, which led the FBI to consider him a suspect? I rather doubt it...

Apples and Oranges, man... Apples and Oranges...

The school was right to throw them out, but it was for the wrong reason. They should have been dismissed on grounds that their behaviour in the Georgia restaurant was completely inconsistent with the character required to become a physician entrusted with the lives and health of others.

Frankly I believe these men did make a joke in public and if that is the case I really dont need them to be my doctor. I am sure others feel similar. It is one thing if they made the jokes in private amongst themselves.

Would you let any of them treat you? I agree with the school on this matter and any medical school or internship in which these folks have taken the hippocratic oath.

2 excerpts:

I will remember that there is art to medicine as well as science, and that warmth, sympathy, and understanding may outweigh the surgeon's knife or the chemist's drug.

I will remember that I remain a member of society, with special obligations to all my fellow human beings, those sound of mind and body as well as the infirm.

No, but there was more evidence against these three idiots than there appears to be against Hatfill. But I don't see anyone crying a river for him. I just find the dichotomy interesting.

Oh, I understand what you meant... I have a problem with the FBI's actions in the Hatfill "case", mainly because of the way they have used the media to 'prosecute' him when they apparently don't have the evidence to do it in a court of law...

That being said, based on all I've seen and read, these 'clowns' have no business becoming physicians...

Eunice Stone should be congradulated for reporting these slime.

ME swarthy men should know to maintain a low profile, certainly not make jokes about buildings. Not a racist statement, a statement of fact. I'll bet they wouldn't have made these jokes in an airport.

How old are these former medical students? They sound extremely juvenile if they were joking. Maybe it's pre-teen kind of humor to play that kind of prank. Even envelopes of white powder are at a higher level of childish prank.

Maybe they watched too many episodes of "MASH" and thought that American doctors
are always pulling pranks when not in the operating room...

That was my first thought! No way would these fools treat me as a patient. Personally, I'd rather have Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine, and Dr. Howard, lol.

They're not former. They were just sent to a different hospital. Maybe they'll be working with Willie Kennedy Smith.
