"Both arrived in the country six months ago and are enrolled at the English Language Institute at USF."
And in all that time, they never, ever saw a yellow school bus and could not understand what it was.
BULL....
Kudos to the Judge who took appropriate action to hold these two dry-run frontmen.
Okay, Bedier, why would they lie about being from Morrocco?
Now, about university students who don't know what a school bus is...this stinks out loud.
But, but, but they're members of that religion of peace. Surely they don't mean any harm (see various links for the world-wide upsurg in rapes and sexual assualts by muzzies on non-believers).
These dudes have been riding a horse with only one rocker.
He's half right. It's not an overreaction.
I think they wanted to play "Airplane Into the Building" but were afraid of heights.
For once, we can thank the media for getting the word out on this pair. If this hadn't been publicized, they'd already be reporting to OBL.
With them being in their early 20's, the substitute driver might have just thought they were high school students. They obviously knew enough to lie to the LE and not carry ID. They also knew exactly where the bus was going to stop to pick up kids and had probably staked it out in hopes of one day getting a driver who didn't know the kids. As I said the other day, it's a darn shame but we had to have a talk with our kids about this and what to do just in case.
Maybe they didn't have the funding for the 'car' portion of a 'car-bomb'.
The same statement is true for Atta and company also!
SA... soon to be a glow-in-the-dark galss parking lot!
Not a word in this story about the fact that one of the men was wearing a black trench coat on a 90 degree day. No, that's not suspicious! (sarc)
I still do not understand why the bus moved 10 feet after these two guys got on it.
Take them out behind the court room and shoot them. They can always clean up the details later.

Actually, it is absolutely right. It is about time we started treating young Saudi men differently. Reality requires that we do so.
When they were jabbering in Arabic and laughing, what do you suppose they were talking about. I would bet you dollars to donuts the conversation went something like, "Look at this dumb kufirs sweating because they think were a couple of terrorists, ha ha!"
Well, who's laughing now?
BTW, how much would it cost to send a couple of USF professors to Suadi to teach English over there, instead of having their people come here?
The 911 hijackers did a dry run. Perhaps that is what we have here, to guage reaction. I see no problem with finding out what they can about these guys before setting bond. This is Florida, and 90 degree day and trench coat just ring a tad bit susupcious. A suicide vest would fit nicely underneath. Who knows what these guys were up too.
Gee, nothing to overreact to there....
No, and they don't have Christian churches, either. But I'll bet they manage to recognize them and keep out of them.
This sounds like an intelligence gathering dry run for a later operation, to me. I hope I'm wrong.
