Perhaps student visas need anotherh look.
Perhaps student visas need another look. Ahmed Mohamed had been arrested in Egypt before he came to the United States on a student visa to attend the University of South Florida. Why was he arrested? Good question, seems no one is talking about that. From National Terror Alert:
Former University of South Florida student Ahmed Mohamed, who admitted producing a video for YouTube about making a remote-controlled car bomb, formally pleaded guilty today to a charge of providing material support to terrorists.
Mohamed, 26, an Egyptian citizen who was studying for a graduate degree in engineering, was stopped by police in South Carolina last August in a routine traffic stop.
The case is being touted as an example of the federal government’s ongoing efforts since 9/11 to get local police to help them locate and prosecute terorrism suspects.
Bill West at Counterterrorism Blog asks if authorities should be scrutinizing USF a little more closely.
Pursuant to prior media reports, Mohamed came to the US on a student visa to attend USF and had been arrested for as yet detailed charges in Egypt prior to coming to the United States. Seemingly, there may be some questions concerning the student visa issuance process related Mohamed that hopefully the State Department and/or the Department of Homeland Security will one day answer. Beyond that, Mohamed joins a growing list of Islamic terror-linked operatives who have also been connected with the University of South Florida.
ANOTHER SAD FRIGGIN STORY.AND WE KEEP LETTING THEM IN. WILL SOMEONE TELL ME WHY? YOU MAY AS WELL LET THE COYOTE GUARD THE HENHOUSE!!!!!!!
