Janet Incompetano strikes again: New York City air traveler arrives in Egypt with guns, bullets and knives in baggage

I feel like I'm wrapped in a warm cocoon of safety knowing that Janet Napolitano is always on watch. Like a falcon. Or a crow. Or something scary.

Egyptian authorities detained a passenger arriving at Cairo airport from New York on Wednesday after finding guns, bullets and knives in his baggage, an airport official told AFP.

Mohamed Ibrahim Marei, a US university professor of Egyptian origin, had flown in on an Egyptair flight from New York's JFK airport.

Customs officials noticed the passenger looked nervous and decided to open his luggage. They found two handguns and 250 bullets hidden in metal boxes, the official said on condition of anonymity.

In a secret compartment in the bag, authorities also found two swords, five daggers and six knives, he added.

We're in the best of hands.
