MEET AHMAD RAHIJA, 26 YEARS OLD, SYRIAN REFUGEE, EX-YRG TACTICAL SECURITY TRAINER, MY RACQUETBALL PARTNER AND ALL-AROUND GREAT GUY

[DEEP VOICE]

Meet Ahmad Rahija. He is only 26 years old, but already a trained killer. Of Syrian extraction, when just a teenager he was cutting his teeth in Manbij battling Daesh and ISIS terrorists as part of the YRG/TKK homeland defense group, then trained tactical assault troops in small arms and hand-to-hand combat in an undisclosed location in Aleppo for two years before going underground, resurfacing for several months in northern Africa, and then nothing, like a blip disappearing from the radar, until he resurfaced in Brooklyn in 2020 as a ‘pharmaceutical consultant’.

He is my racquetball partner, makes amazing falafel, and is an all-around dependable, great guy.

Why, do you want his number?
