Trying to stop a semi-tanker with a Dodge Neon. Yep, the stupidity required to think up that one is definitely of Middle East caliber.

Last night FOX News reported that there was an attempted attack or something at the Pentagon where two middle eastern men were arrested with a stolen tow truck; nothing further or since.

How insensitive of Fox news. They should have just said "men." Or, better, "persons."
Local police and federal agents are searching a three-state area for two people who may have tried to hijack a tanker truck loaded with fuel this morning. [From post #10]
Happy now? : )

WHAT are we waiting for? For a tanker full of gasoline to be driven into the lobby of a skyscraper and blown up, before we'll consider internment?

We don't need internment of American citizens, just alert, patriotic, loving, and armed citizens.

The driver told police that a copper-colored Neon tried to force him off the road

Tried to force a tanker truck off the road with a Neon? They should have ended up as another squashed can on the side of the road.

It's possible that they were just good ol' thieves.

Probably not, though.

No kidding. These people might be dangerous, but they are pretty stupid.

Thank goodness for quick police work.

No telling how much they would've marked it up.

Obviously it doesn't. The "armed and dangerous" part may be an indication of why the driver thinks they meant to stop the truck.
