July 26, 2005 — Five Egyptian men with maps of the New York City subway system and video of New York landmarks have been arrested by the Joint Terrorism Task Force in Newark, N.J., ABC News has learned.

FBI and law enforcement officials told ABC News the five men — four illegal immigrants and one law enforcement fugitive — were arrested Sunday night following a tip to the Newark Police Department. In addition to the subway maps and video, the men had train schedules and $8,000 in $20 and $50 bills.

Check my FR Homepage. It got some good information about how to prepare and what supplies to have. It's a base list to get you started. Adapt as necessary.

Good list, but you need to add Feminine Supplies to the First Aid section. (Pads, not plugs) They are clean, absorbant, and make great battle dressings in a pinch.

Interesting downside to Bloomberg's allowances...

Isn't that what Martha Stewart supposedly did? Oh, she's a citizen so she was charged. Illegals don't have to obey the law.

Not to mention those clandestine bake sales, she was plotting. I know, stupid isn't it?

Democrats whine: They should not be deported!

Probably because it IS familiar. We can actually try and shut down the borders, but these folks are intelligent and extremely motivated to carry out their jihad against us.

They'll find a way into this country, and our government seems clueless on how to stop them.

sometimes carry $50 and $20 bills.

I think the 'chemical' in chemical engineers refers to explosives... /sarcasm

Karim Ahmed Abdel Latif Ahmed, 21; his brother Mahoud Ahmed Abdel Latif Ahmed, 19;

These two aren't old enough to earn engineering degrees!

four illegal immigrants

They're only here to work the jobs Americans don't want, right Mr. President?

[Oorang]

Mahoud "boom boom" Ahmed?

[lstanle]

"Illegal immigrants. Questions, anyone?"

How did they enter the US? I think the deportation process should not be rushed. Some questioning at Gitmo might be in order before they are deported.

Waziristan here we come!

Good reminder.
