Two Saudi men get on a school bus loaded full of students in Florida, only to be arrested at its final destination because the alarmed driver called ahead.Â
TAMPA - Two Saudi men were arrested Friday after they boarded a school bus and rode to Wharton High School in New Tampa.
Students on the bus became alarmed, as did the bus driver, who called ahead. Hillsborough County sheriff’s deputies met the bus at the school and detained the men. No one was injured and nothing out of line occurred on the bus, deputies said.
Mana Saleh Almanajam, 23, who lives in Apt. 302 in The Point apartments, and Shaker Mohsen Alsidran, 20 Monticello Gardens, Apt. 304-A, each were charged with trespassing on school property. Both remained in Orient Road Jail on Friday evening. Bail for each was set at $250.
“Both defendants gave several versions of the reason they took a school bus to a high school,” said Hillsborough County sheriff’s spokesman J.D. Callaway.
“They said they wanted to go to Wharton to look around, and then they said they wanted to go there to have some fun, and then they said they wanted to enroll in the English classes there,” Callaway said.

Of particular interest is that one of them was wearing a black trench coat with shorts. This incident has all the hallmarks of a terrorist rehearsal. A full dress rehearsal in fact—checking access, routes, and reactions.
Fortunately state and federal law enforcement agencies were notified—as well as immigration officials (for all that that’s worth!).

UPDATE: Welcome Kossacks. Do try and not mess the place up while you poke about looking for evidence that we are a bunch of nazis. Thank you.
Glad I live in Utah…where CCW holders can carry on public school property. If/when some shithead terrorists pull a Belan in Utah, I expect at least a couple to get shot to death in the initial siezure. Probably won’t prevent a disaster, but the bastards will suffer more for it.
The stupid thing is, people are still in denial. Few seem to think a Belan can happen here. No one in such a position (since schools are such are usually packed full of pussy liberal types) has the balls to do anything
realto prepare for it.I’m just glad they caught these two clowns. This may have prevented something pretty severe—or then again, this just might be the tip of the iceberg.
This is the tip of the iceberg that Bush is trying to prevent and for which the Dimocrats want to impeach him.
and by Belan, I mean Beslan.
Either way, it says a lot that certain people
aren’tconcerned about this sort of thing.The Bus Riding Saudis…
Michelle Malkin has been all over the story about the two Saudi men arrested on a bus in Florida:
SOMETHING DOESN’T SEEM RIGHT…with the story of the two lying Saudi men who boarded a school bus in Florida. And it is not racist to say so.
