There are plenty of American terrorists too, every country has terrorists. Also, we "Americans" were not the first one's here... this is not OUR country. This country is supposed to belong to anyone who needs a home and there are plenty of law breaking citizens and aliens of all nationality so why waste your time blaiming one? You would be surprised how many Lebanese work JUST for their family. One man, name not necessary, who worked for Sam came from Lebanon just to work and sent the majority of EVERY paycheck back to his family in Lebanon. Afer 1 or 2 years of working 6 days a week he went back to his family. He is not even close to being the only one to work like that just for his family.

A lot of men like him will take their chances to do work illegally because they get more money for it. The faster they get money the sooner they can go home and the better off their family is. The biggest one responsible is the man in charge who started the illegal business and in a lot of cases that may be Sam but he is exactly where American's made the decision to put bad people, prison! If you do not believe he has not been there for the past 4 years your ignorant and just like many others, he faces being deported when he gets out of there a few years from now. Do you know what that will do to his kids who had to grow up the most impressionable years of there lives without their dad anyway? You should not judge a person you no little about and especially for things that so many people of all nationalities can be accused of including a lot of Americans.
