Is the USA about to have another 9-11 attack???

Wow.
Whether this is terror, criminal, or just an illegal alien issue, I'm glad the authorities are looking for them. It is certainly a different world since 9/11 every little thing makes folks suspicious, and I guess rightly so.

dang, Minneapolis MN .... too close for my comfort..

Now a total of 3 are in custody....those poor students, being hunted like the garden variety terrorist when I'm sure they just got lost on their way to Montana because of the language barrier. We should provide a jihadist interpreter for young incoming terrorist wannabes....that would be the fair thing to do here in America...right.

-Since 2 turned in themselves, they could be sacrificing themselves to divert attention and make the FBI feel safer and loose down a bit so that the others can continue with their plans.

Or they could be seriously lost, This must be investigated ASAP until the truth is found and action neccesary either way they shouldnt be allowed here again, they violated the law they shouldnt be given another chance.

I don't understand why it is illegal to racially profile people who are not US citizens?

I was flying back from Cancun yesterday and was delayed 5 hours because of that nonsense in the UK. I also had to throw out all my shampoos, gels, etc AND I had to pack my cellphone instead of carrying it on...

Is it not safe to f*cking say that if someone is going to hijack a plane these days, they're PROBABLY going to be of Arab decent?

From now on, any Arab man under the age of 35 that has not been a citizen of this country for more than a year should be treated with the utmost caution in airports, why is this a bad idea?

That is a good point, but all the terrorists of any consequence have been Jordanian, Saudi, Iranian, or Syrian. Needless to say they all have a similar look to them.

Well, I suppose to stat out with, at least those who have resided in or were born in countries that sponsor or support terrorism.

The government tried that in 2003 but it didn't work!

Not necessarily, the ones arrested in UK are British citizens of Pakistani decent. They are not Arabs.
