No need for the sarc button. I recognized the irony.
He's an American. I assume he was Christian, converted to Islam a few years back...

Dr. Mohamed is a graduate of Ain Shams University in Cairo, and has been in this country since the mid-1970's. He is proud of his U.S. citizenship. "When I came to this country, it was everyone’s dream in Egypt to go live in America. Everyone loved Americans. Now when I go back to my home country, I do not advertise that I am an American."
He is quite concerned that this interview will cause him to be marked as an apostate, and he fears retaliation, especially on his planned trip to Cairo this summer.
"In Egypt, everyone knew about the Muslim Brotherhood, but it was illegal. After the peace treaty with Israel, the radicals came crawling out of the darkness. But they weren’t idiots. They were very cunning," he explained.
Dr. Mohamed continued, "The US knew there was going to be a problem. They had problems in Iran with the Ayatullah, now they were afraid there would be problems in Egypt. Jimmy Carter and his people were going to reach the next generation of young men by giving them scholarships to come and study in America. They were going to teach them how great the US was. They recruited from universities in Egypt, Syria, Saudia, the Emirates – all the Arab countries."
Dr. Mohamed thinks part of the problem was the students themselves. "They [the students] didn’t have to be the smartest. Some were just average students. They didn't just come from Cairo and Alexandria, they came from Benha and Assuit and >>>>Mansoura<<<< and Gharbeya. Anyone who wanted to come to the US and go to graduate school could with a little bit of work, and get a fellowship."
He explained that the rural enclaves of Egypt, especially in places like Assuit and Benha, were known reservoirs of Islamic extremism, even back in the 1980’s.

yikes... the pointy finger got too excited....
Howard Dean should put them on Double Secret Probation
It's mostly noted as an agriculture school. You can learn other things there, but by-and-large, Montana State is known for it's Ag Sciences program, and they're one of the top schools in rodeo. A number of rodeo greats are MSU alumni.
Are there some radical islamic professors there ?
Not to my knowledge. No.
That's a prime target in terms of publicity and potential casualites.
Any mall, of sizable porportion could be a potential target. Mall of America just happens to be known worldwide. Two malls aside from the Mall of America I've been to that are huge are Arizona Mills in Phoenix, and Colorado Mills in Denver.
"Not sure if it was here on FR the other day but somewhere I read a report they planned on hitting the food supply to the nation."
If Calpernia is right, and they seem to gravitate to waiter and cook positions in restaurants, then that's scary. I Don't want them anywhere near my food.
I already had a NJ License too. I was just renewing. My birth certificate is a duplicate and that always gives me trouble.
My dad rents a farm house to an amish family and she is always baking him bread, pies and giving him homemade jellies. He loves it.

Not to sound too much like Louis Farrakan, but there are 11 of them and this is the 8th month. Next month is the 9th month and one can surmise that they planned something to comemorate
9/11.
Since there are only 8 of them unaccounted for, something called 8/11 might not get the job done. -66-
Given the fact that Jesse Jackson admitted spitting in white people's food, I would think there are other things to worry about than Mohammed's poisoning you.
From the article: "Three of 11 missing Egyptian students has been picked up "
"has?" "has?" What is this, ebonics?
Spot on.
OR the FBI is in DeNile!
These newest two just found were in Manville, NJ, about 10 miles up the road from New Brunswick.
GOt any local news on them?
