The Citizen Page #8

- Mr. Jarrah,

just answer the questions

as they are asked.

Yes, Your Honor.

Upon arrival in New York,

were you not planning to stay

with your cousin Rashad?

Yes, his family.

But when I got to America,

he was not there.

He went to another airport.

Well, that's interesting.

Isn't it bizarre...

that a close relative would

make such a dumb mistake?

Yes, but this

is what happened...

Mr. Jarrah, isn't it true

that you lied...

to a federal agent about where

you were planning to stay...

on the night you arrived

in this country?

No.

Well, you said your cousin

had arranged a hotel for you.

But these records indicate...

that Rashad never even called

the Brooklyn Express Motel...

before September 10, 2001.

Objection, Your Honor.

How is this relevant?

- Overruled.

- And isn't it true...

you have a family member,

Ziad Jarrah,

who actually hijacked United

Flight 93 on September 11?

Objection!

Speculation.

Overruled.

He's not family.

He's not family,

and I know nothing about him.

No further questions,

Your Honor.

Mr. Jarrah, thank you.

You may step down.

Thank you.

Mr. Jarrah,

will you please rise?

This court finds

that Ibrahim Jarrah...

is no a security threat...

to the United States of America.

In addition,

this court is recommending...

that Mr. Jarrah's application

for citizenship be expedited...

so that no other impediments...

bar him from completing

the requirements...

necessary to become

a United States citizen.

Congratulations.

The sun returns the heat

Burns the soles of my feet

I wasn't trying

to escape the sun

All I knew was I had to run

And so to find some shade

Hey, boss.

Lovely choice.

The wind was blowing

towards the west

My heart was beating

through my chest

Searching for a sky

Not too wet, not too dry

Wide and open, spacious

Free of the clouds

and not too sheltering

True joy, balance, love

All you look for from above

There's no room to hide

Well, don't just do, decide

When the dark clouds clear

Blue skies free me

from my fears

So, go, there's much

to choose

To gain and still to lose

I'm here

Just want the clear and loud

Of standing on a cloud
