I like reading Mo's experiences, observations, and opinions a lot too. For me, the more he posts, the better.
While I agree with plenty of his points, I don't agree with all of his opinions in regards to terrorism, religion, global politics and conflicts, etc... And, I think it's a good thing that I, nor anyone here, need be hesitant to express a counter view even if we've never lived as foreigners in a terrorist-occupied area.
Likewise, even though Mo's never lived in the United States (or Syria or Iraq or Saudi Arabia or Iran...), I view his opinions on those topics -- opinions based on reading/watching news, interactions with embassy workers/friends from those countries, and internet posts by residents of those countries -- as worthy of consideration as everyone else's, including those who've actually lived it.
