Foreign Students From Egypt Charged With Possession Of Explosives For "Violent Purposes"
08/31/2007
Ahmed Abdellatif Sherif Mohamed and Youssef Samir Megahed have been indicted [PDF] for possessing explosives for "Violent Purposes." These explosives were discovered by police in the are of Goose Creek, SC, on August 4, and they've been the subject of much speculation.
What I'd like to speculate on is this: why does the US Government give student visas to students from Islamic countries? One of the first suggestions we made after 9/11 was for the government to stop doing this.
