Omid Djalili 2018

[@keyvangeula7807]

This was, in my humble opinion, a class A+++++ comedy. No obscenity, no insult or humiliation of another person, many complex and thought provoking twists and turns of the mind, and most successful elevation of the heart and elicitation of belly laughs all around. Thanks Omid for a most intelligent comedy delivery.

@@ahmedetemadi3434 Yes - it was quite brilliant.

I knew nothing of him, so I just took a chance. I was so impressed that I came back the next evening to see the play. Some things leave a deep impression. You asked why it was so good: It is a one-man play - but Omid's skill to move from one character to the other is remarkable. It felt as if I were watching a play with many different actors. The timing, too, was impeccable.

[@tejasdhami8734]

shahmir zaman dude, he was literally next to the US military base in Pakistan, (like a mile away) and next to the Peshwar military training academy (like Pakistan’s west point). Also the Pakistani military created the Taliban which, though not the Al-Queda (which Osama was the leader of), was still a major ally. Moreover Pakistan consistedly funded the Taliban who were often contained to have funded the Al Queda. Not to mention that the US armed the Mujahadeen, who then splintered into the Al Queda, who then splintered creating a civil war that Najibullah lost. Moreover, the Afghans were fighting communists and asked for help in defending against the Soviet advanced. If the US had not provided support, the nation would have been blamed for its inaction in allowing for the rise of a different type of totalitarian regime. Lastly, in terms of why it was obvious he was in Pakistan and in that location was that his house was always guarded with armed men, it was the largest house not just in the town but also in the entire peshawar region, and it was often reported for its incredibly suspicious activity.
