>>Mystery surrounds immigrants detained in Texas>> Looks like these two Indian men have something to hide. Not necessary that they were associated with terrorists. Some patterns that did not fit the profile of other hijackers: - none of the 19 suicide hijackers were from India - the arrested men actually worked hard for their living - 12 hours days at the newspaper stand. Most of the 19 hijackers had not taken up any jobs for a living - most of the 19 hijackers came from well-to-do families - The money the Indians sent back was to their families not to some Al-Quaida representative (as Mohammad Atta had supposedly done) - Nowhere in the newspaper articles is it mentioned how long they had been working in the US to earn their money. - it looks like they were not silent, but have told stories that have holes - Most of the actual hijackers seem to have proper passports and not fake passports. There are lots of illegal immigrants in large US cities such as New York, LA etc. If a swoop is conducted one may discover many false papers and identities. Illegal immigrants use cash transactions a lot more. That could explain the $3,000 found on them when they were arrested. Nevertheless a lot of other questions about these Indian muslims remain unanswered.
