Many Arabic young men are frustrated with the lack of opportunities and restrictive religious laws. They have been introduced to America and the free world's social freedom through music, TV and internet connection sites. Often these young Arabic men or men from ??? from whatever country…see America as the land of opportunity and think a lot of America is like Hollywood and Las Vegas ~ and some will try to get to America by marrying women they do not really love (mainly middle aged because they have homes, cars, things to offer them and these women shower them with affection, send money, open their hearts,(believing the lie~ because they need to believe it) but they are only the bridge to America or a Free Country where a new life awaits.

Usually these men already have other women waiting them that they have met through these sites and after the bridge gets them to US, England etc. and they obtain their green card. A lot of times these young men when they get to their dream destination only to find; streets not lined in gold, money doesn't grow on trees,the language barriers,work and independence not easy to get as anticipated and they are still dependent on the bridge "sweet apple" that brought him to new life..

The frustration of finding the new life's disappointment and still having no control over anything in their life's the bridge becomes the target of the built up anger. Finding us hearing stories of abuse and control like listed above.
