Eleven Egyptian students who were supposed to travel to a Montana university after flying to JFK airport late last month disappeared in New York, spurring federal authorities to issue a nationwide alert, officials said yesterday.
The students - who were traveling with six classmates from Mansoura University in Egypt - had their student visas revoked for failing to show up at Montana State University in Bozeman, the officials said.
The other six students made it to the college.
"The FBI and ICE [Immigration and Custom Enforcement] would like to locate these 11 students in order to speak with them," said FBI Special Agent Richard Kolko after the "be-on-the-lookout" alert was issued to all police in the United States.
Kolko said there is no reason to believe the missing students, all men around 20 years old, represent a threat.

No doubt we can find them nearby. I'm sure they are just happy as clams having taken in several off-Broadway shows (just fabulous stuff!)

OMG are they for REAL
They must think we are freakin idiots
Let's not play games ok.NO I'm not suggesting we have agents following foreign students,however I believe there's something beyond the "oh we know they got here but then we lost track of half of them" attitude the government is taking now.I believe some of the 9\11 scumbags originally got here on these student visas and I'm saying it's currently extremely easy for people from the Middle East to come waltzing in here and then disappear !!!
Hiding in a mosque near you.....................
For me, this is the biggest failing of the Bush administration and the GOP-led Congress. There was a historic window of opportunity after the 9/11 attacks to make fundamental changes in our immigration policy, and Bush and the congress did nothing. I'm afraid you are right, it will take another devasting attack before the American people wise up.
we shoud be he, but you knew that...
It gets better. Check out my reply #59.
It's pretty simple really.
geeeesh shoud should more coffee please
Maybe they wanted to go river rafting but decided instead to 'float the Hudson'.
I agree with you on this. The DENIAL of what is happening right around us, in front of our noses...scares the daylights out of me. So many Americans, 36%, want so badly to believe that our government committed 9/11 for oil...instead of the truth that Islam has declared war on US and will kill us simply because we are not muslims. And not for any other reason...
When the next attack happens here in the US. It isn't going to galvanize us together, it is going to rip us apart and the liberal La-La Land people are going to be to blame. They fail to understand Islam declared War on the US over a decade ago and we are only now catching up with truly defending ourselves.
May God help us...
LOL!
I stand corrected.
When is this idiocy going to cease? Send them all home and sort them out later. We are our own worst enemy.
Anybody check the strip joints in Times Square. What few of them that are still there.
The Muslim neighbors of the Buffalo 6 went crazy when we accused their "brothers and sisters".
The warning is for us to be alert as to "strangers" acting suspiciously.
Didn't we just refuse entry to a bunch of Muslims in California??
Yep.
Could you imagine the Saxons inviting in the Normans...
Political correctness will kill US.
