Might want to sticky this thread to the top of the posts. Just a suggestion.

Hunter....just how many men do you think the FBI and INS have anyway? There aren't enough agents in all the world to keep track of every person of "interest" Give them a break....or increase their funding....even then you can't watch everyone all the time, no matter what the Militia types in this country say.

Magik, I am not saying that they should watch everyone every second of the day , but if you find what your looking for you shouldnt lose sight of the target. Since they knew when they arrived,where they arrived to and who they were looking for ,it seems like a rather simple task to keep track of them.

When there's WW3 because somebody destroys the statue of liberty, then I guess we deserve it...

Hunter - The article also said that the gov't acknowledged that these men could have already entered the U.S. by the time they got this information. It isn't like these pictures were snapshots taken as they came across the border.

They are saying that their sources indicate these guys are already in the country and have suspected ties to Al Queda.

I agree that some of the statements from the Homeland Security Force are.....disturbing (at best). However, when they say "they aren't wanted for any known terrorist activity" {paraphrased}, I think that is more an attempt to calm the public's fear rather than the gov't saying "HEY, another A-rab just came into the country. Let's track this joker down and rough him up some to see if he can tell us anything about his buddies in the Al Queada".

If the gov't wants them for questioning, I would assume they have more to back up their desires than just the fact that their Arabs.
