I've been on this forum since November 2014, and if you've ever looked at the Syrian Civil War thread, chances are you've seen a few of my posts. But I did forget to introduce myself. Silly me.
For a little background info...I was born in the US (contrary to my flag), BUT I was raised in Syria, so I consider Syria my home country. I am from Aleppo, so obviously if I do get aggressive/competitive sometimes that will explain it. From the ongoing conflict in my home country, I've lost 7 family members in an airstrike, and 2 of our homes got ransacked by pro-government militias. Previous to the conflict, I've lost my grand uncle from a Mukhabarat execution in 1982. Obviously my view point is set in stone just from those incidents.
I'm going to change gears here as I don't want too much of my personal info going on the internet (Mukhabarat have eyes and ears everywhere,) and that's enough sadness for now. I'll just answer the 6 points provided by WebMaster.
What are my interests? Well, I'm interested in politics, Syria, gaming, military hardware, etc. I'm a student for now, but that will change sooner or later. I found Pakistan defence while I was browsing information about the Al-Zarrar. I then moved on to search for Turkish weapons and found you guys again. I kept running into this forum and decided to join. What I find interesting is the diverse amount of subjects you can discuss here, from politics to science to political science. It's really astonishing. I have two routes I could go down the future - go to college in the Engineering field (Computer Science or Mechanical/Aerospace), or join the Syrian military (after the revolution is over.) I would like to do both, but obviously my parents being Syrian, they would disown me if I didn't go to college.
Well, that's my 5-month overdue introduction. That's some actual information about me now.
