If the house was bought simply to sniper the vp...then what would brody's role have been?

Brody was a sleeper. Walker was plan A. If he made this happen, Brody could just continue to lay low for however long Nazir wanted him to. This guy is very patient and waits years sometimes for an attack, he didn't invest in Brody just to come back home and immediately do dirt, although he ended up needing him sooner than he wanted because of the couples eff up.

There's no way they brainwashed brody and made him think he killed his friend and sent them both back just to snipe the vp.

His ultimate goal was to kill the VP, but he's supposed to be like Bin Laden. He just wants to attack us, so he has all kinds of sleepers living in America(maybe even a CIA agent). Brody was the best one because of his hero status. Notice Brody never got contacted by Nazirs men until after the couple got caught up and Walker was exposed. Brody ended up (almost) having to be the clean up man when all else failed. Walker was just a pawn and Brody was a Queen. If Nazir could have taken out the VP with his pond, he would have.

I just realized after I reread it. I was trying to type as fast as I was thinking.....and I'm impressed that's the only error I made. That part was an ETA that I was trying to get in before you responded to the 1st part and you went and disappeared. This thread has the longest between response times ever, I should have corrected that before you or Cokes got me.

frick, I give up.
