Gotta love somebody who criticizes their host country constantly.
Yeah, Muslim first, American last. Gotta love somebody who criticizes their host country constantly.
Though she made a mistake, I find it actually more telling that criticism of Trump is considered criticism of America itself. Also that someone would call America a "host country" to an actual American, simply because she is Iranian and Muslim as well.
America never was America to me
July 4, 2017
America First, the President says, and I know he is not talking about me. But this feeling is not new. I remember being in high school, shaking with self-doubt, as our country prepared for a war I did not understand. “Maybe I am the problem?” So I sought out ways to solve it. I read about Islam in hopes of learning what it was about the religion that led to so much death and destruction. But, confused, I found nothing beyond the beauty of the words I grew up reading with my family on Friday evenings.
I know now that America was never mine. I am an accident, a fluke. I should have been born thousands of miles away. I should have been Iranian. And maybe I would have been, if America hadn’t intervened in that nation’s experiment of democracy in 1953.

Leave for Iran, 2nd Generation Immigrant Backstabber.
never what the newly independent states did with their freedom
Islam and Feminism
That would be: Born in America, 2nd generation American daughter struggles with American identity, in relation to fear and intolerance directed toward parents immigrant origins. So basically, something all too familiar to most of our American lineages. I know my European ancestors got the same treatment in their 1st and 2nd gens here.
Her parents are probably Red Shi'a or Tudeh followers who left Iran in the 70s when the Shah was going after the Reds.
No, not intolerance.
So to be clear, persecuted in one country, received with open arms in America ... until about now. Got it.
I'm guessing you have never, not even for a day, felt what it is like to be a true minority where it is very outwardly visible by your appearance.

If you hate Western Culture, and think America isn't that great, then there are 194 other countries to possibly call home!
Yeah, Muslim first, American last. Gotta love somebody who criticizes their host country constantly.
