“I was famous once — Oprah Famous” Iraqi boy who saved U.S. troops grows up to struggle with his American dream


RWBN: A nice-looking young man of middle eastern descent with a tattoo of Jesus on his bicep walked into my store, The Patriot Shop, and shuffled through a few conservative t-shirts. After ordering a few anti-Obama t-shirts, we began to “small talk” about politics when he mentioned how very unhappy he was with President Obama and that he was not a big fan of President Bush and the Iraq war either. That’s when he looked at me and said “I was famous once — Oprah Famous.”
I asked the young man what had made him famous? He told me to Google “Steve-O Iraqi Boy,” and, wow, he found the right place walking into a store called the “Patriot Shop.” What a story! What a Patriot!!

Steve-O spinning his sign
The first article that caught my attention when I Googled him was titled: Steve-O, Iraqi boy hero meets Oprah. He wanted me to look at the images before the articles, which is where I saw a young Iraqi boy in several pictures with American soldiers sitting on tanks and playing basketball with smiles from all. You could see the love.
