• I am sure as a math major he is well qualified to shoot at people....This boy is after his 15 minutes of fame. He looks like a graduate of clown college in the photo, hope he gets to meet his maker. This little clown thinks he is in a video game.....His comrades in arms are laughing at him...even in the dessert he is dressed like a moron.

• Bet he's an Affirmative Action toad. Isn't something like this hitting very close to being called TREASON? They should make the scum stay there and never let it back on our soil. This is the kind of trash UCLA is turning out.

• I gotta throw in the BS flag on this one.

  • How do you reach that conclusion?

    Actually, I think this could be kinda cool, if the kid wasn't such a fathead loser. UCLA math major? Sure -- and not a lick of common sense. Read the story- he speaks no Arabic, had no idea how to shoot a gun, evidently has been asked to leave after the rebels spent a few days celebrating the diversity, and now he's stranded without a return ticket or a nickel in his pocket.

    As that great philosopher and pundit, Zaphod Beeblebrox once said, "Okay, so ten out of ten for style, but minus several million for good thinking, yeah?"

    • l dunno, seems like a story The Onion would run. A parody that has gotten out of control? The guy is probably a rebel leader who got first dibs on a aid package that contained clothing. I've seen people in pretty remote regions of BFE wearing shirts that are from local sports teams where I live.

• Might be Ernest Hemingway's long lost oriental cousin. Perhaps he's going to write a book called For Whom the Camel Farts

• Dumbass!!!

• He's a target now. Might be hard to make it home with no money and Al Jazeera reporting on your whereabouts.

  • Maybe, but it beats joining the Peace Corp.

• Don't need no freakin' extra credit, man, I'z MAJORIN' in stoopid.
