I’m Ahmad Shah Mohibi, an American shaped by a war-torn childhood. Growing up in Afghanistan, I didn’t have toys or carefree days—war stole that from me. It was a brutal, war-torn childhood where survival replaced playtime. At 16, I became a freedom fighter, battling terrorists alongside the U.S. military—not out of choice, but necessity. Back then, I didn’t know Democrats, Republicans, left, or right—just America. A nation of freedom and truth that gave me a shot when I had nothing but blood on my hands and a fire in my gut.
Those radicals tried to kill me—bullets flew close—but they took my colleagues instead, brave souls whose deaths still echo in my bones. Back then, I didn’t grasp political divides, just the American promise of freedom and truth that pulled me from the wreckage.
I’m living proof of the American dream. From nothing, I carved out a life here—check my journey at https://ahmadshahmohibi.com/about-me/. I don’t care if you hate my fight; I’m not here to judge or fix you. My war’s for kids trapped in war-torn childhoods like mine, for innocents dying at the hands of radical terrorists. These killers slaughtered thousands—my colleagues among them—twisting Islam into a lie to justify their barbaric crimes. See the reality at https://www.risetopeace.org. They’re not faith; they’re destruction. I founded Rise to Peace (https://www.risetopeace.org) to crush their chaos, a mission born from my pain.
This is personal—a freedom fighter’s vow. War-torn childhoods leave scars; losing colleagues hardens your resolve. I’ve faced terrorists’ hate up close, and I’ll stop them however I can. My enemy’s also the clueless who argue while evil grows, blind to the stakes.
