Goose Creek - Two men are being held in the Berkeley County Detention Center after police find explosive making devices in their car. There are conflicting reports as to the quantity of explosive making materials in that vehicle.
FBI (website) reports are saying that there is not believed to be a link to terrorism. The men 21-year-old Yousef Megahed and 24-year-old Ahmed Mohamed (seen in the video attachment) were pulled over Saturday evening during a routine traffic stop near Myers Road and Highway 176. Among the explosive devices found were igniters and fusers.
Few details about the suspects are known at this time. They are believed to be students at a Florida college. They are of Middle Eastern descent and are not US citizens. Neither man has been charged, but charges are expected Monday.
A press conference will be held in Berkeley County on Monday morning. Among the potential charges is possession of unlawful explosives.
Officials are not at this time releasing any additional information. Highway 176 in Goose Creek was shut down and has since reopened. Stay tuned to ABC News 4 and www.abcnews4.comfor details as they become available.
Okay, fellas, I’m not a tinfoil hatter, but I am NOT buying this one. Two guys with Muslim names and explosive stuff in the trunk of the car. Now come on.
Yousef Megahed and Ahmed Mohamed
I’ll wait till Monday to see what charges are brought against them for having these “devices” in their car.
If no charges, or a slap on the wrist and they release these guys, than the tinfoil hat comes on and I would wonder who these two nice young men work for??

Well, back when I was 16 in the early 70s a couple friends and I made some pretty big bangs, with no connection to terrorism. :)
But that was definitely a different time.
Yousef Megahed and Ahmed Mohamed
These two are lucky they are not caucasins named (fill in the blanks).
We’re all going to pay.
You make a point and we are paying.
Consider the arms sales expect for the Saudis. What the heck are we doing selling them some 20 billion in military hardware? What is W thinking? Nothing like having 20 billion dollars worth of hardware pointing at American troops.
Conflicting Reports on Materials Found in Trunk
The suspects have been named, and their mugshots made available. The contents of their vehicle, however, remain unclear. Conflicting reports from the FBI and Berkeley County Sheriff’s office raise questions.
from the video at link.
Maybe they were going fishing.
Is Mr Gut Feeling and others wanting something to happen here in the US again??
It'll be shot at Israelis first. Then us.
Back when I was in High School I couldn't believe F-15s were being sold to Riyahd. As I aged, I realized that we were playing both sides of the fence.
It's going to bite us...soon.

Watch the video at this link. Includes why officers searched car and some itmes they found.
Well if something happens, just want you to know....it won’t be related to terrorism. (end/sarcasm)
Seriously though, credibility has to be at issue when you’ve got ME men carrying explosives and the FBI says “no terrorism.” Especially the part about contradicting reports about the amount...what does that mean, why not just say what amount they had.
What about the ME guy who was carrying the wires, etc. in a body cavity and got caught. Not related to terrorism...my eye.
And it's gonna get a lot of us killed.

Define “deport them”? If it is buy two bullets and rent a guy “deport them”, yes, sign me up.
Agree with you at who will be hit first.
It’s nuts.
The 2 men had valid Florida driver’s licenses and lived at a Tampa address.
No, not in favor of that.
Deport = Sent back to their home country. They are never allowed to return to U.S. soil. No of their family or immediate relatives are ever allowed to return to U.S. soil. If they have assests in the U.S. those are liquidated and returned to them. They are never allowed to have any holdings whatsoever in the U.S. Anything else I can think of short of your suggestion.
FBI Storm Trooper: “How long have you had these bomb making materials?”
Obiwan Muhamad: “It’s for sale if you want it.”
Obiwan Muhamad: “You don’t need to see his identification.”
FBI Storm Trooper: “Ah, we don’t need to see his identification.”
Obiwan Muhamad: “These aren’t the muslims you’re looking for.”
FBI Storm Trooper: “These aren’t the muslims we’re looking for.”
Obiwan Muhamad: “They can go about their business.”
FBI Storm Trooper: “You can go about your business.”
Obiwan Muhamad: “Move along.”
FBI Storm Trooper: “Move along! move along!”
