On the other hand, just how Syrian can she be with a name like Kimberly. Just a dimwit that converted perhaps.

Some Syrians look like Europeans, e.g., the Assad ruling family. I knew an American of English and Scottish descent (6 foot tall, brown hair, blue eyes) who worked for a major oil company. He was fluent in Arabic and, when stationed in Damascus, was often asked if he was from northern Syria. Additionally, Middle Easterners in business often take very “Anglo” first names.
