I saw this at the end of a Reuters story about those 650 people currently being held for investigation:

In northern California, an Immigration and Naturalization Service affidavit alleged that Nabil Sarama, a Palestinian, made a false statement to obtain a permanent residency card. Sarama was arrested Sept. 16 in Orlando, Fla., after police found him near a pay phone that had been used to make bomb threats, the documents alleged.

A search of his suitcase, the affidavit said, turned up a kit capable of making between eight and 12 box cutters - like the weapons used by the Sept. 11 hijackers. He also had a California Department of Motor Vehicles identification card, a Georgia driver's license, four Florida identification cards and a Palestinian Authority passport.

No doubt he is considered one of those unfairly arrested for a "minor" immigration charge without any relationship to terrorism. I am sure he thought he had to get a local driver's license each time he crossed a state line and that the four identity cards were caused by disagreements among his multiple personalities.

The box-cutters were undoubtedly just brought along in case he needed to do any auto repairs during his road trip - you never know when one will break just as you are cutting open a throat, I mean a box of parts.
