I have to add one more thing. I'm fluent in two extremely difficult Middle Eastern languages. I know the culture and I understand the religion. I have these skills because of the people who trained me. For every person like me, out there in front, there are the half dozen or so patriotic Arab and Iranian Americans who trained us, most of whom are Muslims. We can do our job because they did theirs. They're not asking for recognition or your thanks. But they do deserve your respect.
