Documents read to Fox News indicate that both driver and passenger were Israeli nationals. Investigators say a roadside check of the national database of immigration records indicated that one of the men had not entered the country legally, and the other was in violation of his visa. Both men were taken into custody for immigration violations.

Strange....I though the spot checks on 80 year old white women would have stopped this by now.

From the article....

Documents read to Fox News indicate that both driver and passenger were Israeli nationals. Investigators say a roadside check of the national database of immigration records indicated that one of the men had not entered the country legally, and the other was in violation of his visa. Both men were taken into custody for immigration violations.

Fox News has learned that a Ryder truck was pulled over in Oak Harbor, Washington last Tuesday near the Whidbey Island Naval Air Station and found to have traces of TNT on the gear shift and traces of RDX plastic explosive on the steering wheel.

The FBI, INS, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and local police are all investigating.

Shortly after midnight on May 7, federal officials say local police pulled the vehicle over for speeding. Documents read to Fox News indicate that the driver and passenger told local police they were delivering furniture from California but that authorities doubted that story because of the early morning hour.

Documents read to Fox News indicate that both driver and passenger were Israeli nationals. Investigators say a roadside check of the national database of immigration records indicated that one of the men had not entered the country legally, and the other was in violation of his visa. Both men were taken into custody for immigration violations.

At 7:30 that morning local police were notified that the BATF and FBI had tested the truck and found traces of explosives on the steering wheel and gear shift.

Officials say no other charges of been filed against the driver and passenger and an investigation is ongoing.

Authorities say records for the Ryder truck do not indicate any recent rental for the purposes of transporting explosives, which would require special permits.

Very likely yes. Israel is one of the few countries to grant citizenship to Palestinians.

It's a given that any and all Palistinian with Israeli citizenship will be reported by our illoustrious news sources as "Israeli Nationals".

Gee, traces of TNT on the gear shift and traces of RDX on the steering wheel.

Sounds kinda weird ;).

Does a citizen of the country of Israel HAVE to be a Jew? So if you are an Arab and were born in Israel, then you are an Israeli...?

Just like if you are a Swede and are born in the USA, then are you still a Swede or an American? Totally Weird Dude!...Is an "Arab-Israeli" like being an "African-American"? Do you get reparations?

Let's not jump to conclusions. I got money that says they are either Palestinians or sympathizers.

Israel spys on us, just as we spy on them. But they know full well that they will not get away with a Reichstag fire.
