BOSTON (Reuters) - Federal authorities Wednesday began rounding up as many as 20 workers at Logan International airport, where the two planes that crashed into the World Trade Center in New York on Sept. 11 took off, a spokeswoman said.

"We are seeking the arrest of 20 employees of various companies that work at Logan," Boston's main commercial airport, said Samantha Martin, a spokeswoman at the office of U.S. Attorney Michael Sullivan.

Martin declined comment on why law enforcement was arresting the workers. She also declined comment on a local radio report that said the suspects would be charged with having false Social Security (news - web sites) numbers that gave them access to the airport.

She said the arrests started very early Wednesday and that so far some 15 people had been taken into custody. A news conference was scheduled for 2:30 p.m. EST.

On Sept. 11, two jumbo jets were hijacked after leaving Logan and flown into the twin towers in New York. The hijack attacks, along with another that hit the Pentagon (news - web sites) and a fourth that crashed in Pennsylvania, killed more than 3,000 people.

Nay! The entire country needs a good house-cleaning of these b*stards. Send these haters of America back to where they came from.

AGREED! And don’t stop until we’ve rounded up all the liberals too!

Our God tells us to "fight the unbelievers" and "He will punish them by our hands, cover them with shame and help us (to victory) over them" (Koran 9:14).

I think Jane Garvey, current FAA Administrator, used to be head of Logan (also in charge of the Big Dig, among other fiascos). I suspect she is giving cover to the incompetents at Logan. Why doesn't Bush can her a**? She's an untrustworthy Democrat.

Illegal aliens no doubt!

LOL!
It's obvious and official now, comrades.
These sumbitches want me to die of laughter and they almost succeeded.

Ben Ali to Ali Baba: "C'mon dude, let's go! They're talking about us on Fox News! We should've been as smart as Ben Menacha and left 4 months ago, dammit."

[KC_Conspirator]

I get your point. These people should have been rounded up, interrogated, and deported yesterday.

LOL!

Ha ha!!!
The commienazis are much better than ordinary commies.
My family didn't know what happened to me for only 1 month, hehe!!!
Well, I told you, guys... no excuses.
BTW, I bet The Anthrax Guy breathes easier now, LOL!!!

"...and had no clue or experience on how to either run an airport or provide security for one."

He's just another in a LONG line of incompetent, cynical opportunists who have been busily emasculating America and making her weak and vulnerable to attack ... on many fronts ... for YEARS.

This could never have happened without the help and consent of those Marx identified as "useful idiots", and Barnum described as "suckers".

So how many of the twenty do you suppose work for Argenbright?

They wear weird 1930's uniforms here. High boots and horse-riding bloomer pants (forget what they call them

Does the word 'jodphurs' jog your memory?

I wonder if Hussain Alhussaini (also known as Al-Hussaini Hussain)is one of them round up? Naw, I doubt it. Since he's just a guy who was surely mistakenly ID'd by some as John Doe #2... Oddly enough though , those persistently interested in this character (not the FBI of course) continued to follow him all the way from OKC to his new job at, you guessed it, Logan.

Course there is nothing to see or suspect here. Surely nothing more than a crinkled wrap of tinfoil hat crap.

[Stefan Stackhouse]

It's great and all that they are arresting these folks, but where are the high level resignations for the gross intelligence failure that allowed for 9/11 to happen? I am talking about those billion dollar departments who we pay "to think the unthinkable and plan for the unimaginable."

Actually, I truly believe that some in positions of authority are guilty of CRIMINAL negligence. Worse than that, it wouldn't even surprise me to someday find out that someone accepted a bribe to look the other way. They should be swinging at the end of a rope, but I am afraid it will never happen.

[cardinal4]

I agree 100%.The FBI that the Clinton DOJ left behind was shameful.(Read Waco,Richard Jewell,Riady,etc......)

[BlackbirdSST]

I'll have some of whatever you're smokin' so I can stick my head in the sand too. Just don't be a bogart, pass it along. Blackbird.

On Sept. 11, two jumbo jets were hijacked after leaving Logan and flown into the twin towers in New York.

BTW, those planes were not "jumbo jets." They were Boeing 767s. A jumbo jet is a Boeing 747. A small point perhaps, but I hate the way news organizations have become so casually sloppy in their reporting. A sixth grader could easily find at least a half dozen errors in any newspaper today.

Amnesty is dead. I don't care what the INS says. It is dead.
