Comment got a reaction from Happytobe in Scam?
Take your time to get to know him. Then make your decision. Worrying too much whether it is a scam or not might affect your decision about this person. Just trust your heart and brain and you will know if he is the right person or not. Regardless of how you met or how long you have known each other always remember you can marry your next door neighbor that you have grown up with and the marriage can collapse in a year. It is just life and there is never a guarantee.
I met my wife in a silly online game. One year later she visited me in Egypt in May and we married in her next visit in August. Here we are after nine years of a successful marriage, even after her family and friends tried to convince her it was a scam and I will leave her as soon as I get my first green card. When it did not happen, they made a bet I would leave after my permanent green card. As you can tell, I am an american citizen and we are still togther. I love my wife and family.
Yes, there are scams and cheating but we should not let our fear get the best of us. Best luck to you.

Comment got a reaction from elmcitymaven in Isis and Islam
I have heard a lot lately after the attacks on Paris about how Muslims support terrorist and how happy they were about the people that got killed. Also, how we should close the border for Syrian refugees. So, I decided to tell you the difference between Muslim and terrorist. You are welcome to give me your opinion. However, to give me a fair opinion you have to have good knowledge and a great amount of information. If your information came from the media, then sorry you do not know the truth. You only know what the media wants you to know.
Let me give you a piece of background about me. I grew up in Egypt, in a big city on a long street that starts with Muslim house then a Christian house then a Muslim house and then a Christian and so on. Just a single Jewish family lived on that street. So, I grew up calling Uncle" Magdy" and Uncle "Zaky" and so many were called uncle. Uncle Magdy was Christian, Uncle Zaky was Jewish and I was Muslim. We shared happiness and sadness together. We went to the church for weddings, holidays or funerals. They come with us to the Mosque for weddings or funerals. We shared everything. When I came to the United States, due to long distance I have not been to a mosque but two or three times. But more than that I went to the church with a friend who was the organist. I received others into my home. I am Muslim with Christian wife. We have been married for 7 years and I have not forced her to change anything. On the dresser in the bedroom there is a Bible and next to it is a Quran. So from true experience when I tell you ISIS is not Muslim it is a fair judgement.
If you want it by logic, look where there war is now. Syria, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. These are all Arabic and Muslim countries where ISIS killed over 100,000 Muslims and continue to do so. If they were Muslim as people say they would not be burning mosques in greater number than churches. Don't come and say they are Muslim for a fact or represent Islam for a fact.
It is unfair to judge Islam and Muslim by what ISIS is doing. As it is unfair to judge Christianity and Christians for all the women that were burned at the stake. It is also unfair to judge all the Germans for what Hitler did. Or Italians for what Mussolini did and so on.
ISIS is there to make people think bad about Islam and Muslim; to make people hate Islam and Muslims. ISIS is there to give reason for other countries to send their army there. Is it to keep peace or for oil or other resources or to make new allies or to keep closer eye on an enemy, who knows!
Now to the point where some Muslim countries punish crimes by death. It is their law and the criminals were full aware of the consequences of their actions. I do not agree with a lot of it but I agree to obeying the law. If you are full aware of the law and you go against it, you are the one that brings the punishment you receive. I live in the United States and have to live by the US laws. I am in the US and I live as American. I speak english in my home and on the streets. I comply with the laws and support the constitution. If there are some laws that I do not like, I still obey it. It is obey or get out. Even now days, people are going bananas, just like the old days everyone was afraid their friends, neighbors, favorite actors, politians were communist. So history repeats itself but these days it is not communist but Muslims they are afraid of.
Now to Al-Qaeda. Are they Muslims? Sadly, yes, Radical ones. Are they criminal? Absolutely! Do they represent Islam? Absolutely not!! If it was army to army war, I understand and there is nothing bad in this. But murder, bombing, killing innocents has nothing to do with Islam. It has everything to do with terrorism. I swear to God if one day either of these groups came to the United States and we were allowed to carry weapons and fight them, I would be the first to bear arms and kill every single one I can as it is what they deserve. I would do this to protect my family, my friends and my religion. If any information came to me by any means I would report it immediately to the government without second thoughts. As you see, everything here is from experience not from the media. So, if you want to come to judge me or my religion, please do it from experience not from media or biased and illogical history books.
P.S. Most of the terrorist in the Paris attacks were French or Beligum. So why are we closing our doors to the Syrian refugees? I believe in giving them a chance and keeping a close eye on them. That is better than just ignoring helping another human being. Please let's not forget we are a country of immigrants except for the American Indian. This was peaceful opinion with due respect to all religion and nationality. If you are wanting to spread hatred and ill will, I am going to ignore your comments. Once again I am not accusing anyone of anything I am stating facts.
Thank you and good luck to all.

Comment got a reaction from Janelle2002 in Isis and Islam
Hello there, thanks for leaving a comment.
First, I memorize my Quran since I was a child and I do all my prayers. I always act according to it. You are wrong if you think according to the Quran my wife should convert. Simply because as a Muslim man I am allowed to marry a Christian or Jewish woman.
As for ISIS thinking or doing it for Islam I also disagree here. Because the animals that are bombing and killing innocent people, they are doing it because they love to do it. Just like some people steal for the love of stealing and not because they need it. Is it sickness? Could be but it is even worse than that. Is it for religion as there is no religion on this earth that is asking people to be terrorist bombing and killing innocents every single minute. So if they are doing it thinking they are doing it for God, their god must be the devil. It is a group of monsters out for fame and notoriety and thrills and money and sex. I agree with you some of them totally believe they are doing it for God.But their knowledge of God, they got from their leader not from the Quran, or the Bible or the Old Testament.
As for some country laws, I already said I don't agree to a lot of it but my point was if the persons knows the punishment is going to be severe, he should think a thousand times before committing the crime. And I agree with you that if the law is wrong we should change it. But can we change it by committing the crime?
Thank you for a very wise comment and by the way my best friend is Jewish called Arney. We have many long discussions on various topics but always with peace and love but unlike as the media says that we hate each other.

They're certainly not bound by that. If they want to deny it they can and will, but require a legal basis to do so. The N-400 fee you paid was for an adjudication, not approval.

Agree with Mananto. Supervisory review is a standard step before they give final approval. My application did not have as many twists and turns and it was still subject to supervisory review. It was eventually approved 3 business days after my interview and I am now in queue for an oath ceremony.
