And since you refuse to put a flag up on your homepage I'm still justified in my thinking that you're not an American. I do not need a flag up on my homepage to prove I am an American. I have a passport and DD 214 that accomplish that task.

Foreigners have passports and DD-214s too.

The American government's understanding of the bin Laden network was also aided by another man who did not testify publicly, but provided key intelligence behind the scenes -- Ali Mohamed, a 48-year-old Egyptian native and former U.S. Army sergeant. He was the first person to plead guilty to charges resulting from the embassy bombings. In October 2000, Mohamed told Judge Leonard Sand of the U.S. District Court in Manhattan that at the request of bin Laden, he had conducted surveillance of U.S., British, and French targets in Nairobi, including the U.S. embassy. He then delivered pictures, diagrams, and a report to bin Laden in Khartoum, Sudan. He said that bin Laden looked at a photograph of the U.S. embassy and pointed to the place where a bomb truck could be driven through. The targets were chosen, Mohamed said, to retaliate against the U.S. intervention in the civil war in Somalia.
Mohamed is a naturalized U.S. citizen who worked as a supply sergeant in Fort Bragg, N.C., from 1986 to 1989, before going to work for bin Laden. He trained Al Qaeda operatives in military techniques and acted as a key adviser in the organization. While Ali Mohamed is cooperating with the U.S. government, he did not testify in the embassy bombing case.Do you think he served "his country" too? What is "his country"? America or some other?
You've yet to state in an unequivocal manner that you're an American.
