Five Afghan Students Missing From University of Washington, School Bus Stolen in Delaware
Five Afghan “scholars” have gone missing from the University of Washington in Seattle while the National Terror Alert Response Center is reporting a stolen school bus in Delaware and the role these buses may play in a future terrorist attack on American schools.
According to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, five “midcareer graduate students” have been reported as missing to the Department of Homeland Security, the FBI, and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement after the men failed to show up for a session last week.
Currently the University has 38 scholars studying public administration through a program called the Afghan eQuality Alliance. Two other Afghan students went “missing” in 2007.
In another school related matter, a school bus was reported missing in Delaware. According to the National Terror Alert Response Center, yellow School Bus No. 67 went “missing” on September 29 from the LeHanes bus service lot on New Castle Avenue in New Castle.
It is clear that schools are a possible target for terrorists. Aside from Beslan and the dozens of other school attacks over the past 37 years, it has been reported that the U.S. military has found information in Iraq pertaining to U.S. schools, and in September 2004 the FBI notified school districts in six states that photographs, diagrams, and emergency plans had been found in the possession of unidentified individuals. With institutions as large and prepared as the Georgia Institute of Technology posting their entire emergency plans on the internet, this is not surprising.
In addition, there have been hundreds of thefts of school bus radios in two states, along with an increase in thefts and vandalism of school buses and equipment across the U.S. This has obvious implications, including but not limited to the possibility that unknown individuals may be able to monitor or interfere with school bus communications, and even feed them false and dangerous instructions during or before an attack. At the very least, this would allow terrorists to better understand and plan around the communications equipment of an intended target.

Three words — terror, terrorism and terrorists — came to mind after reading a Seattle Post-Intelligencer article about five visiting scholars from Kabul University in Afghanistan being reported missing from the University of Washington. None of those words, however, appeared in the left-coast newspaper article, despite the fact …

The way this story is reported is what is creating the fear that something bad might happen. It is absurd to assume those students are missing due to an unknown plot they supposedly must be carrying out. It is sickening how every media station is creating its own plot from this story.

Well if they cant be found, then we’ll assume they are missing of their own accord. What other explanation could there be?
How often did this happen in prior years? If it were 5 missing American students, wouldn’t we be looking for them? NOT absurd, especially since they are from Afghanistan. Only other solution is they want to escape the watchful eyes of Afghanistani government, and live free in America.
