Glad he took advantage of all the Muslim guilt swag first.
Eta hopefully he we learn how to take his clock building skills to the next level over there.

I am quite certain we will be hearing from this cat again in the future. Talent like his is worshipped over there. Probably can't wait to meet those 72 virgins.

The comments seem to indicate that few people are buying WaPo's narrative here. I like that.

Didn't see this on Good Morning America.

NASA's loss.

I think the "narrative" is that they got paid.
Qatar is making a point while drawing in some badly needed technical skill (and making a huge symbolic statement to talented Arabs).
The kid gets a free, high grade education.
The parents are surely getting money on the side to draw them to Qatar.
The loser could be us. It's been going on for a while. Smart Middle Eastern people will hesitate to migrate here. Historically we have thrived by drawing talent from the world. We are discouraging that part.
You can think that's a good thing or a bad thing. You can slap your head in frustration or shout "good riddance." But that is the real narrative.

Personally I disagree from my experiences in the work place and in grad school

Maybe.
But I'm pretty sure that is what Qatar is up to.

Maybe you are smarter than me. But I'm guessing no one is falling all over themselves to pay for your education. I could be wrong. You could be right. Who knows?

Oh no! We lost such a talented and bright kid! Not every 14 yo can take a clock and put it in a briefcase!!
This kid is not smart. You know how I know? He brought a fake bomb to school.
I'm glad that whole POS family will be thousands of miles away. Peace out, Clockmed!
