AbuAmirah

I am the son of an African-American father and my mother is 1/2 Arab and 1/2 Berber. Astoundingly, I went to Christian schools most of my life, so I have had experience with Christianity that alot of Christians don't have regarding Islamic culture and the religion. I currently work for a large defense contractor, in its Corporate Security dept. I have a pretty good life. My personal pet pive is the hypocracy of the American government. This government has constantly injected itself in the internal affairs of other nations. My job here is to rattle some cages, shake things up and get people to think for themselves and not follow the usual political bull$hit

That is already apparent in Iranian support for Hamas and Hizbollah. Possession of nuclear weapons would give it a further edge.
