Mr. Faleh Hassan Almaleki, the Iraqi father who has been on the run ever since he drove his Jeep Grand Cherokee over his 20 yr old daughter Noor Almaleki has been found in Atlanta, Georgia - over 1800 miles from their Glendale, Arizona home just north of Phoenix. He most likely drove through the DFW area along the way.
Mr. Almaleki was captured at Hartsfield-Jackson Airport by U.S. marshals in Atlanta last night. According to investigators, he was upset that his daughter Noor had become "too Westernized" and was no longer living according to their customs. That is why driving over his daughter appears to be a failed attempt at an honor killing, which is an acceptable form of justice in Iraq.
Noor Almaleki was taken to an Arizona hospital with life-threatening injuries. Her female roommate, 43 yr. old Amal Khalef, was also injured in the same hit-and-run event. She told authorities that it was Noor's father who was driving the Jeep that hit them. Other eye-witnesses also provided information to the local authorities.
Faleh Hassan Almaleki is now in federal custody.

Why ..oh why , we let these assh"oles in the USA!!!!! can anyone explain this to me please?
Because there isn't an a-hole test to get into the country? And it's not like we don't have plenty of home-grown a-holes here.
Of course that is why we shouldn't let these FOOLS into our country.
Enough already!
