Which can only mean that they are stupid, malicious, or have some very strange guidelines if this is true. What i find a bit strange at the moment is that noone has attacked that source, i though daily mail was pretty much pure bullshit. Is there a more credible source for this? That's my one issue as well... they should have let the two travelers into the country once they found out that the "threat" wasn't real. Also, I don't really see why they put them in cells with convicted felons >.> I think security really screwed up there. | ||

You've got to read it to see that it was written my friend, and to be able to pick out the "dangerous ones" you must read all of them. That is illegal. So the constitution needs to specifically state that there is the authority to investigate a threat against the nation stated in a public forum? There is nothing illegal about that in the slightest. | ||

Public communication is not protected from being monitored, and it would really not make a lot of sense to do so. After all, it is public. Should government officials not be allowed to read newspapers, go onto twitter etc...? | ||

Haha, how could this happen? I don't understand how the guards knew about their Twitter accounts... Doesn't that suggest that there is something more involved? | ||

I know that security is important, but that just seems incredibly moronic to me. | ||

Why on earth would you lug a shovel across the Atlantic at great expense when you could walk into any hardware store in the States and buy one for $10? I know that security is important, but that just seems incredibly moronic to me. Because it takes a special shovel to dig up Marilyn Monroe, for terrorist purposes | ||

There are countries with with very different laws and rights. Like North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Singapur, Turkey, USA after 9/11, etc. Also in the US there are terrorist attacks all over the place. Why would someone go there as tourist? | ||
