#1 His allegiance was with the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, a polity that did not recognize the sovereignty of Western nations per the Rushdie rules and that violated all standards of decency (as defined by Western civilization) by imposing the death penalty on ideological deviants.

Why should such a person not be expected to be a mortal enemy?

#3 The "ideological deviants" are the good guys.

In the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan deviation from Islamic orthodoxy was a death penalty offense.

Maybe, if back then the Bush administration had prosecuted Rahman's prosecutors and judges for crimes against humanity things in general wouldn't have developed in such an atrocious way.

#4 Thank you.

Not just his Americanese, he hit all the BLM talking points as well.

Now, IIRC, it wasn't just a routine check, but didn't he run a stop light? And the whole situation didn't feel like he ran from the police until his gasoline was exhausted or there would have been multiple vehicles and everyone with their game faces on, not a casual solo stroll up to the vehicle.

And it was a suspended license. One doesn't lose their driver's license because they are low on money. Registration/Tags, sure, but not the license.

Just feel like there is a little more going on here than someone who doesn't think traffic laws apply to him and chooses then to gun fight his way back to Afghanistan. And the usuals who would normally front page this are rather quiet.

#5 Subjective: "struggle to rebuild their lives"

That assumes he wasnt struggling in Afghanistan. Seems his whole life was a struggle. PSTD to the extreme.

Couple Points:

1.) I would not receive the same courtesies that this gentleman received from Fairfax County Cops. I grew up dealing w/ Fairfax County Cops where they all think they are State Police. The moment I ever stopped cooperating with Fairfax PD was the moment things would escalate very quickly for me - not in good ways. If I ever tried to elude Fairfax, dogs and helicopters would be called out. This man did not cooperate at all and Fairfax was very nice to him.

2.) He was known to the Fairfax Police Community as he had several run ins with the cops over the last few years. It is not the first time he eluded police, and is not the first time he brandished a firearm during a traffic stop.

Some articles say he was pulled over for speeding. Others say b/c his registration was expire. I can tell you this --- Pro Tip: If cops recognize you, not good - they will pull you over more frequently. And that is probably the case with this dude.
