I think I acknowledged that in post #3. But every profound experience always has a face... a "poster child". It was Mandela for apartheid and Luther for the Civil Rights Movement. Abdul may very well emerge as the face of the heroism at Westgate.

Can't agree more, this guy is my hero!!!
And here's why. His humility and his smarts. Did you notice how many times he gave credit to his colleagues? How many times he said "we" and "us"?

Give it to this guy, he speaks from the heart.
