MAHMOUD MAAWAD, an Egyptian, has been in the United States ILLEGALLY since 1999.   He used a fake SSN to register for school.   Lets take it to the AP for more:


MEMPHIS, Tenn. A federal magistrate has ordered a University of Memphis student held until trial.

Prosecutors say F-B-I agents found an airline pilot's uniform, a chart of Memphis International Airport and instructional D-V-D's. One was titled "How an Airline Captain Should Look and Act."

Mahmoud Maawad is charged with wire fraud and fraudulent use of a Social Security number.

Describing what agents found, Assistant U-S Attorney Steve Parker argued yesterday against releasing Maawad, saying the acts and circumstance of the case are "scary."

Parker said Maawad -- a 29-year-old Egyptian -- has been in the country illegally since 1999 and had used a phony Social Security number to enroll in schools and open a bank account.



Oh, that's nice.   Got himself a pilots uniform and an "How an Airline Captain Should Look and Act" DVD.  (Incidentially, WTF is up with that?  Perhaps its a CIA production, of the flypaper sort, premised on the assumption that NO ONE who orders it is up to any good????).

More here:  www.memphisflyer.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A10148

No word yet of Mr. Maawad's religious affiliation.

The Fifth Column is here.  They're attending our universities, using our banks, and walking around among us.  The WOT is just starting, and my view is that the four year point after 9-11 doesn't mark the end, but only the beginning of the end of the beginning of this war.  

Its only a matter of time before we get hit again.   We are a free and open society, and rightfully refuse to adopt some of the more draconian intrusive government stuff that would absolutely preclude this shit.   So we're going to get hit again, its just a quesiton of WHEN.

In the meantime, can we PLEASE CLOSE THE FUCKING BORDERS?!?

Don't worry, remember its the Religion of Peace...I am sure he just wanted to get a jet liner, and fly a bunch of under priviledged kids to Hawaii for a little fun in the sun....

Really...

No really....

Why are you rolling around on the floor laughing?
Well, it might be nice to take Mr. Maawad up in his jetliner to about 30,000 feet, and let Mr. Boot meet Mr. Ass in an open hatch and see if this gentleman can fly....maybe Allah will help him out and sprout him some wings...

Its just a coincidence he has a koran

'Scary' U of M student jailed
Possible terrorism ties under investigation

When FBI agents walked into Mahmoud Maawad's spartan apartment at 3557 Mynders # 5 on Sept. 9, they found a desk, chair, computer and a Koran.

They also found an airline pilot's uniform, a chart of Memphis International Airport, and instructional DVDs, including one called "How an Airline Captain Should Look and Act."

A federal magistrate Thursday ordered Maawad, a 29-year-old University of Memphis student from Egypt, jailed until his trial on charges of wire fraud and fraudulent use of a Social Security number.

"The specific facts and circumstances are scary," Asst. U.S. Atty. Steve Parker said, arguing against Maawad's release.

Since Maawad can't get a Social Security number, "he can't get a pilot's license, and can't go to flight school," Parker said. "But he wants to get behind the wheel of an aircraft."

Parker said "we don't know either way" if Maawad is a terrorist or connected to any terror groups.

U.S. Magistrate Judge S. Thomas Anderson ruled that Maawad be held without bond.

Though it's not illegal to buy aviation material, Anderson noted, "it is hard for the court to understand why he has a large concentration of those items, and nothing else to indicate Mr. Maawad plans to stay in the community."

Maawad has been in the country illegally since 1999, and has used a false Social Security number to enroll in schools and open a bank account, Parker said.

He's been working off-the-books for cash at a North Memphis convenience store, and was arrested by Shelby County sheriff's deputies last spring for selling alcohol to a minor.

Agents are downloading information from Maawad's computer and analyzing materials from his apartment in search of a terrorism connection.

"My school is everything," said Maawad, a clean-shaven man built like a weightlifter. "I stay in this country for seven years; I stay for the school."

Maawad said he's studying science and economics at the U of M.

Since Maawad can't work legally, he told authorities a friend would support him.

When court employees tried to reach that friend, the telephone was disconnected.

Between April and August, the penniless student ordered $3,000 in aviation materials, DVDs titled "Ups and Downs of Takeoffs and Landings," "Airplane Talk," "Mental Math for Pilots" and "Mastering GPS Flying," FBI agent Thad Gulczynski testified.

He also ordered a pilot's coat and hat, and a chart of the Memphis airport terminal area from Spotty's USA in San Diego.

When the company didn't receive payment on $2,500 worth of merchandise it had delivered, officials called the FBI, which launched an investigation, Gulczynski said.

Memphis is thier home hub.

Time to feed this Koran thumper to the general population of the local jail, or better yet a Federal Facility.

PS-Tom Diaz (one of the authors) is a creepy, liberal anti-gun prick and flunky of the "Violence Policy Center." I was 1/2 way through this book before I caught on that it was the same guy. Still a good write up of how Hezbollah operates in the US and how changes in how the Justice Dept operates carried out because of changes made by a Clinton appointee made it more difficult for the Justice Department to operate.



Yes, which, for my money, makes it seem more likely to be reliable.

Anyone who knowingly hires illegal aliens should be jailed.

(+ he should have been deported or jailed when arrested for the alcohol violation)

What gets me is this
"When the company didn't receive payment on $2,500 worth of merchandise it had delivered, officials called the FBI, which launched an investigation, Gulczynski said."

The company that sold him the materials were all about selling them to him, until he failed to pay, then they contacted the FBI.
