One of 11 missing Egyptian students has been picked up in Minneapolis, Minn., NBC News’ Pete Williams reported and the FBI confirmed Wednesday.

Local police in New Jersey also believe they have apprehended two more of the Egyptian students. Federal agents, however, have not yet confirmed the identities of these students.

Eslam Ibrahim Mohamed El-Dessouki, 21, was arrested "without incident" by FBI and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, FBI Special Agent Richard Kolko said.

El-Dessouki is being held on an administrative immigration violation because he did not turn up for his monthlong exchange program at Montana State University, Kolko said.

This shows how stupid and naive our civil service workforce has become, since hiring has become based on quotas and political correctness.

For my own sanity, I'm just going to give them the benefit of the doubt and convince myself that they don't actually BELIEVE what they say, but are saying it to placate the likes of the ACLU and CAIR.

They took a wrong turn at Albuquerque?

[OldFriend]

The terrorists and illegals seem to have no problem getting NJ drivers' licenses.

[No Blue States]

Bookmark.

The missing students pose no terrorism threat, Kolko said.

Either he's trying to keep the public calm (you know those anti-Muslim witch hunts are likely to break out any day now) or he's one of those psychic FBI agents.

Can someone post that graphic of all the States showing where the cells are predominant please.

[onyx]

See you soon.
Thanks for the ping.
Two others picked up in NJ.

[Calpernia]

And Corzine.

They don't seem to be all that smart or good at hiding themselves.

A fanatical muslim can blend into the population of Paterson, NJ as easily as a drunk at a Kennedy reunion.

[Calpernia]

That happened in Jersey city too.

Some of the hijackers from 9/11 got their IDs in New Brunswick, NJ also.

There are a lot of NJ diners/restaurants that hire middle eastern folk under the table to work in the kitchen or as waiters if they speak english. Also the majority of them are Egyptians from my experience. I found them to be very clannish and the vast majority of them do not like Americans one bit.

[Calpernia]

Or birth certificates.

[dynamite98]

NO threat.

This is what is screwed up. I bet there won't be any applause for a job well-done; however, if these guys would've pulled something off, the fingers would already be pointing at Washington.

ACLU Thesaurus:

Unsuccessful Terrorist = potential client

[razorback-bert]

They were just looking for the jobs Americans won't do.

[tmp02]

Was it the way they walked? HAHAHAHAHAHA "Walk like an Egyptian" I hope no one else has said this already.

The missing students pose no terrorism threat, Kolko said.

Thank you Chief Moose.

[RedRightReturn]

Isn't NJ also home to a known cell northeast of Trenton, about midway between Trenton and Newark?

[Howlin]

The fact that they have split up into different states is enough additional evidence to me to think that these guys really are terrorists.

Exactly.

In a foreign country, wouldn't your first instinct be to stick together?

[AmeriBrit]

Thanks...appreciate it. :>)))
