I advise everyone to look at both.

Quite a strange and ironic coincidence. I'm not sure about this one, but he hasn't lashed out at anyone, on the contrary rather. He's being targetted because he's a former member of one of America's sworn enemies. Instead of giving him the cold-shoulder and deporting him, why not educate him? If every terrorist laid down their arms for a chance at an American education, would we say 'no' out of sheer contempt? Or would we say 'yes' out of the desire to change what's wrong with the world?

After all, Bush did say this is the land of second chances.
