Bump! Please acknowledge one border agent doing his job!
The hero!

WASHINGTON -- Working from "instinct," a border agent at Orlando International Airport 2 1/2 years ago refused entry to a young Saudi man who the U.S. government now suspects was planning to rendezvous with the ringleader of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Agent Jose E. Melendez-Perez, testifying Monday before an independent national commission investigating the al-Qaida attacks, said the Saudi man he interrogated on Aug. 4, 2001, gave him "a bone chilling cold effect." Melendez-Perez told supervisors that the Saudi man refused to answer questions under oath, did not have a return ticket or have plans for his stay.
