If you had read further,you would have found that this was originally a FOX news story. "The first mention of a mass arrest of Israeli art students on suspicion of involvement in spying was on Fox News on December 12, 2001. The dramatic report stated that around 60 Israelis had been arrested for immigration offenses, but were suspected of spying against the United States, and added that some of those arrested were members of the Israeli military. The report also stated that some of those arrested had failed lie-detector tests."

Chuckle, yep...

And I heard this story months ago but in that permutation it was Arab students going around selling art -- presumably as scouts to case places for future terrorist strikes.

Will feed anti-semitic conspiracy theories for years to come, though I'm sure.
