WASHINGTON (AP) - Officers along the U.S.-Canadian border and on New York City's streets are being extra vigilant for five men of Middle Eastern origin who may have crossed the border into the United States on Christmas Eve.

Officials have not ruled out a connection to a terrorist plot or cell, but they could not confirm a link, either. White House spokesman Scott McClellan said Monday the intelligence that triggered the search came from an anti-terrorism investigation.

Does this sound like POSSIBLY enough explosives to bring the "needle" down? A hundred pounds of C-4, possibly. God help us all.

Ah, come on guys, now you've gone and scared Howie. It's okay Howie, you can climb back out from under your bed. The odds of you being hit are very remote.

I am not scared for myself, ASS! I live out in the middle of a large desert. I am worried at seeing my country under attack by a force that appears to be very formidable. If you don't care, that's your problem.

Thanks you for posting these photos. Notice that the Arad gentlemen could all pass reasonably well for typical Mexicans ??

Wonder if they earned to 'Habla Espanol!' well enough to escape suspicion? Oh, well, the border is not my problem.

I imagine a old radio broadcast:

"Calling all cars ... calling all cars ... be on the look out for 5 Hispanics ... Er, um ..... be on the lookout for a bunch of Arabs .... Em, er, .... on the lookout for 5 Middle Eastern looking men ... Oh, damn, suspicious looking men with brown complexions .... Oh, hell, Frank, come over here and you read this on the air .... I'm fed up with this P.C. nonsense ..."

I am thinking that "martyr" videos of these men were found in caves in Afghanistan with these men pledging their support for Usama...etc.
Then the FBI took still's from the video's and is showing them to the public.

I thought that at least one of them could pass for Adam Carolla...

Perhaps the Arab Juggies made fun of him as a young man.

I think that maybe the terrorists will do something tommorow if anytime. Nobody is expecting anything on New Years Day.

Gawwwwwd. There's been so many long posts about these guys, I couldn't tell you. It was a link to an FBI site, if that helps. You'd have to FReep mail Gramps.

Thanks for the picture postcard from the Mexican-Arab link !

Well, are those folks from the INS and FBI reading these posts ....? Hmmmm ? Wonder if Freepers are the only people is the U.S. who are tuned in to the possibilities here. Hope GWB's people read Free Republic. Hope GWB orders the U.S. Army, Marines and Air Force to patrol all of our open borders .... Time to go up to Canada for a long vacation and wake up some of those sleepy Canooks ....

Oh, well, I just want to watch some serious football today! Drink some beer, have a couple of hot dogs, and then sleep all afternoon.

I saw that logo as well. Looks like it might be some type of Palestinian terror logo.

Please invade us! I've got plenty of beer for the Marines when they arrive, as I said, I'll even help them if they want to oust the Canadian government, we need someone with a brain in command up here.

LA is too spread out to "concentrate" results.

But see how freaked out we get? ...Which is part of the enemy's point.

I have lived in California most of my life, since 1953 when I was 5. I am trying to figure out how our lawns were cut and crops picked before the invasion. It seems to me we got it done.

doug....

Here in NC we are aswarm with Mexicans etc etc. No one has the slightest idea of who is legal and who is not and the government seems not to care. In the larger cities they are becoming more predominate in crime, particulary murder and drugs. In fact, percentage wise, NC has the fastest growing Mexican population in the US.

It is a crime that our government refused to do anything about this problem. Maybe we should nuke Mexico when we get done with Iraq. Just kidding. I welcome hard working immigrants --- as long as they wait their turn, learn English, and want to adopt the culture of the land to which they have chosen to move.
