The Hunter Becomes the HuntedBy Daniel Voll, Esquire Magazine

Omar Mohammed hunts terrorists in Baghdad. Hunts them and kills them. A few months ago, he killed two big guys in Al Qaeda——Abu Ayyub al-Masri and Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, the two most-wanted terrorists in all of Iraq. But when you hunt Al Qaeda, they also hunt you. The more you kill them, the more they want to kill you. They've shot Omar, blown him up, and killed dozens of his men. LINK

This is a pretty good read. The guy's life is like something out of an action movie. Except he's getting shot at with real bullets. And he's killed dozens of real terrorists.

 
Another one that's "The Real Deal."

Great read. Unfortunately, every country plays with people's lives daily; because they only look at "THE BIG PICTURE".. which is hogwash. $.02

Gotta hope he makes it without sacrificing his family for what he believes.

 
they're both just as guilty. the CIA will use him and not worry about his family and such because it has bigger goals in mind, or a priority that it sees worth it to dangle this man and extract every ounce of 'success' out of him.

his shortsighted view of not wanting to let his country down, or extracting revenge for his father at all costs, is no better. he is ultimately risking his family, and his family of a the joy of a father, for his own personal beliefs, or whatever you want to call it. he may be a great terrorist hunter, but nothing he does is going to end it-and im sure he is aware of this, as smart as the article makes him out to be. he is blinded by vengeance. if he didnt have a family then its a different story.

all the visa stuff is fluff. this man can capture men no one else can, will risk cross border missions, has worked with the shadiest of organizations in the world, but has to rely on some silly piece of paper from the USA to get his family somewhere safe? please.

he stays there, him and/or his family will die. im sure he'll get a great big medal or something.

"I'm on night shift when she (his girlfriend) calls," Omar says. "She's terrified, whispering that men with guns are in her house looking for her." Amira had locked herself in the bathroom. The gunmen were ransacking the house and yelling, Which one works for the Americans?
Omar grabbed a vest and an AK-47 and raced to the house in his SUV, lights flashing. There were two cars parked at her front gate, and an armed lookout. Omar crashed straight into the first car. "My SUV landed right on top of it, killing the getaway driver inside. And then I shot the lookout." ... I kept firing, killing two of them, and I saw a third go down. I ran inside the gate, trying to get to the house. That's when I felt the first bullets hit me."

As Omar was falling, he returned fire, killing the last gunman. By that point his backup had arrived. "So you know what he does?" Amira says. "He tells his guys to carry him inside. So they do, and he knocks on the bathroom door." "I wanted her to hear my voice," Omar says. "So she'll know she's safe."

Wow. The guy's life sounds like something from Call of Duty Modern Warfare. Except with real bullets.
