Hussein Zorkot's is an instructive case. He is a "Lebanese American." He apparently had a fairly good existence in the United States, so good, in fact, that he was admitted to medical school, and apparently could afford to go. He had made it into his third year when he decided to express his pent-up feelings about Infidels by showing up at a park with a car containing two knives, an Ak-47 (doesn't everyone have those in their picnic baskets? Yes, if everyone is the title character in Flannery O'Connor's story "The Misfit" or the title character in Evelyn Waugh's "Mr. Loveday's Little Outing"), and all sorts of other disturbing material in his backseat, he himself gotten up in man-in-black style (with his face also painted black) , in other words he, Hussein Zorkot, was dressed to kill, and judging by all this evidence, had not the police intervened, he might well have let himself go,  have been responsible for a little mayhem, possibly a little murder, directed at Infidels.

Here's how a local paper described the case of Hussein Zorkot: 

"The controversial case gained national attention in late 2007 when Zorkot, then 26 years old, was observed carrying a loaded AK-47 semi-automatic assault rifle near the west side of the park, which is located north of Ford Road near Schaefer.

Following his arrest, Zorkot's status as a Lebanese American and his open support of Hezbollah, which has been designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, led some to classify the Dearborn resident as a terrorist.

Zorkot was arraigned on charges on Sept. 11, 2007, in Dearborn's 19th District Court — the same day city officials issued a press release about the incident.

Dearborn Mayor Jack O'Reilly has defended the city's decision to delay releasing the information three days, and told the Press & Guide the information was withheld until after Zorkot's arraignment to avoid stirring up fears of another terrorist attack.

While Zorkot openly supports Hezbollah on his Web site — www.zorkot.org — he has not been identified as a terrorist or linked to any terrorist group, according to law enforcement officials.

The Dearborn resident pled guilty last month to the charges of possessing a weapon in a vehicle, possessing a weapon with unlawful intent and felony firearm.

According to Dearborn police, Zorkot was dressed in dark clothing and had his face painted black when officers located him on Sept. 8, 2007, inside his 2007 Ford Escape, which was parked on the park's west side. The engine was still running.

Officers approached the vehicle, which proceeded to pull out of the parking space and head northbound toward the park's entrance. Dearborn police were able to block the vehicle in before it was able to leave the park.

When approached by officers, Zorkot opened the driver's side door, but remained inside the vehicle. He then asked officers why they had stopped him, and said, "You guys are always harassing me."

During the confrontation, officers observed Zorkot lower his right hand toward the center console, which was out of view. According to police reports, officers feared Zorkot may have been reaching for a weapon and grabbed his left wrist while ordering him to exit the vehicle.

An officer at the scene observed the AK-47 in the vehicle's backseat, and alerted her fellow officers that the Dearborn resident was armed. Zorkot was then forcibly removed from the vehicle through the driver's side door — although he initially refused to let go of the door.

When he refused to release the door, officers struck Zorkot's arm once with a plastic flashlight, however, the Dearborn resident refused to let go.

A Taser was then deployed, which struck Zorkot between his shoulder blades. The electrical jolt caused Zorkot to fall to the ground, where he began rolling back-and-forth.

When Zorkot refused to comply with the officers' commands, he was stunned again and taken into custody.

Evidence technicians then searched Zorkot's vehicle and found two pairs of cloth gloves, a military combat belt with a canteen and two knives, boots with socks, a receipt for the AK-47 rifle and ammo, a gunlock and keys, a list of Metro Detroit shooting ranges, numerous photographs of Zorkot standing in front of billboard depicting "various Muslim extremists," a briefcase containing a laptop and a cell phone.

Two cameras, a portable AM/FM radio, a pair of binoculars, four computer CDs, an Army surplus bag, a camouflage face paint kit, a Lebanon flag, a VCR cassette of "The Never Ending Story," and eight prepaid international phone cards were also found inside the vehicle.

Based on the statements he made at time of his arrest, and the materials found inside his vehicle, a search warrant was issued for Zorkot's home. Police have not disclosed the results of that search."

For this he was given two years of probation, risible punishment only if you are the laughter-through-tears type.

But there is something else about the Hussein Zorkot case that is not only instructive but positively piquant.

For this same would-be bringer of mayhem and murder (had he not been intercepted in time)-- just look at what he had in his car and how he was dressed -- might simply have been one more in series of those who have supplied such episodes of one-man my-own-personal Jihad  (bizarre and inexplicable only to those who have not been paying attention to Islam) this  Hussein Zorkot , happened to have been quoted, a year or two before, in an article that appeared in the Wayne State Medical School Alumni Magazine.

And here is what Hossein Zorkot said then, in the language we have all grown accustomed to, even been taught to celebrate, on our cretinized campuses:

'Celebrating one of the most diverse student bodies in the country, the Wayne State University School of Medicine held its annual Ethnic Week in October. "Although Ethnic Week was only over a span of several days, the unity which we all displayed holds lifelong implications,”said Houssein Zorkot, second-year medical student and president of the Board of Student Organizations. “Becoming aware of cultural and ethnic issues is essential to a career in medicine. Thankfully, the WSU School of Medicine has a very diverse student body. The more diverse the body, the richer the experience. We had fun, too — it was great."'

Print that little paragraph out and send it to friends as part of your personal Celebrating Diversity and Jihad Day, your very own observance of  Ethnic Week and Dhimmihood, or any other idiotic yoking to your liking. 

"Piquant" I described this contrast above. And, exactly as promised -- piquant.
