Beware of Syed Adam Ahmed

Beware of Syed Adam Ahmed When you take a flight. Yes evil Syed Adam Ahmed Is sure to cause a fright! When he was born, he never cried, Which people thought was weird. He creepily just looked and spied. 'He's plotting! ' people feared. Then at the tender age of one, Or so the experts say, He screamed 'BOOM' just like a bomb, Scared everyone away. Perhaps that's why he caught the eye Of top security - He now was watched by the FBI - To keep us safe, you see. For when it comes to saving us From dangers big and small, There is no question what is just - Protecting one and all. And that is why, at age of six, They have him on a list. For who would want to take the risk That he's a terrorist? Yes, beware of Syed Adam Ahmed - Scary six year old! He's dangerous and wants you dead, If you believe what you are told.

Interesting poetic tale of a young terrorist (allegedly) out to kill people for a vague and shady cause. This is remarkably written, keeping the topic intact in rhyme and word choice. In Palestine, Hamas trains children as young as four to stab Jewish children, and actually used an 11 year-old as a suicide bomber, and took videos to "inspire" other children.

Actually, this poem is a satire. It is not about a 'terrorist'. This is a true story of a boy in Canada who has been on the No-Fly list since he was born simply because he has the same name as another man on the list.
