"Tahir Ibrihim Aletwei, a 30-year-old software engineering graduate student at the University of Texas at Arlington, spoke freely about his inclinations toward terrorism and divulged details of his interviews with federal agents during his deportation hearing.

"I was looking at America as my enemy," he said. "If someone would have approached me and asked me to do something against the country, I was willing to do it."

Mr. Aletwei said he had since had a change of heart and was confessing to help U.S. authorities better guard against people like him. He said he had not been approached by terrorists seeking to enlist him and had no target.

But when U.S. Immigration Judge D. Anthony Rogers referred to an FBI report quoting Mr. Aletwei as saying he still harbored thoughts of killing Americans, Mr. Aletwei conceded that the prospects of a U.S. invasion of Iraq had him again contemplating an attack.

Judge Rogers ordered that Mr. Aletwei be deported within five days, rejecting several pleas by the detainee to be released long enough to finish the last three months of his master's degree."

I had heard for years and years from people who had MidEastern college roommates who hate America, how twisted and angry and strange their thinking was... I can't imagine they WANT to come here for college if we are SO bad!

I met a group of women from different MidEastern countries while volunteering at Tom DeLay office one Xmas - these women are here for college, LOVE America, were not allowed to go to college in their home countries, and they want to make USA their home. They were a wondeful CONSERVATIVE group!
