objecting the "anti-american tendency of this work" (in his words) he denied to give his ID and later also stopped working.
(I don't see my work as "Anit-American" - I see it as a way to promote better understanding of the "other side" , something that hopefully will result in political changes that then will show "pro-American" effects. I love America and Europe and the Arab World and Israel and Pakistan and India and Africa. I hate politics that result in murder, in killing and violence, in unjustice and exploitation)
