Explosives Found Near Goose Creek; FBI on Scene Goose Creek, SC - Highway 1-76 near Goose Creek is shut down as police investigate. Berkeley County Selective Enforcement Team members pulled over two men of Middle Eastern descent. Goose Creek, South Carolina, is home to the Naval Weapons Station, which houses the U.S. Naval Consolidated Brig, a military prison where enemy combatants have been held. The car was heading west, away from Goose Creek, when it was pulled over about 7 miles from the sprawling Navy facility, Lombard said. The men 21-year-old Yousef Megahed and 24-year-old Ahmed Mohamed were pulled over Saturday evening during a routine traffic stop near Myers Road and Highway 176. Among the explosive devices found were igniters and fusers. Few details about the suspects are known at this time. They are believed to be students at a Florida college. They are of Middle Eastern descent and are not US citizens. Neither man has been charged, but charges are expected Monday. |

Almtnman, Thank you, that should serve to remind us of the dangers we face on American soil. It appears that these would be terrorists were caught by accident, makes one wonder just how many others are planning terror? Sooner or later it appears that something is going to happen. I thank God and the folks that are doing their best to see that it doesn't happen, in spite of the lefty loons that do more harm than good. Duke |

They had charges of having in their possession, some pipe bombs which they claimed to be fireworks. Pipe bombs are a felony to have in possession or to make. BTW, a pipe bomb is basically a IED (Improvised Explosive Device). I know you're heard of IED's before. |

It's obvious those guys weren't planning a fireworks display and should get the maximum the law allows. Duke |

I just think it's great that they are not Citizens of the United States, probably going to college for free and working hard on learning how to make pipe bombs that would kill innocent people. We should have rolled up the 'welcome mat' six year's ago. |

I know that I am a preacher of God's but I think they should just be shot on the spot. Let them be an example. |

Actually, college students on a student visa must have the tuition and full expenses banked before they are issued a visa. If these guys are terrorist, money would be no object. |

One example: You may complete this document online, print and sign the form, then submit it with your application. International applications will not be processed without this form and supporting financial documents. Western Washington University requires this statement of financial responsibility from applicants for non-immigrant visas. This document must be on file before admission will be considered. Financial aid is not available to international students. A student must be prepared to pay all educational and living expenses at the beginning of each quarter. If you do not have the required funds, we must notify the U.S. Bureau of Citizenship and International Services that you have failed to fulfill the requirements for a student visa. This estimate represents expenses for an academic year, or nine months. International travel and summer expenses are not included. These charges are subject to change each year and students should be prepared for adjustments. If spouse or dependents will accompany the student, living expenses will increase by $8,900* for each person. Based on the 2007-2008 Academic Year Tuition and Fee Schedule, the estimated expenses for a single graduate student are: Tuition and Fees $ 16,938 Room and Board 5,400 * Books and Supplies 1,500 Miscellaneous Personal 3,500 * Total (in U.S. Dollars) $ 27,338 Please note that the bank validation of funds on deposit must indicate a total of at least the equivalent of $27,338 in U.S. Dollars. The actual account balance does not need to be disclosed. Funds may be retained in domestic currency at the time of validation, but reported equivalent to U.S. Dollars. All financial documents submitted with your application must be no older than six months. All documents must be in English. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Anyone got any updates on 21-year-old Yousef Megahed and 24-year-old Ahmed Mohamed caught with the homemade bombs, as in what is going on with the case or anymore history about them? Thanks, Duke |
