Steve Jobs Was an Arab American

"Abdul Fattah Jandali, a young Syrian Muslim immigrant in Wisconsin, never met his son Steve Jobs. When a baby was born to the 23-year-old Jandali -- now known as John -- and his 23-year-old German-American girlfriend, Joanne Schieble, in 1955, there was no chance he'd be able to grow up with his biological parents." "His biological father was no ordinary Syrian. According to an interview he gave to the Al Hayat newspaper in February 2011, he was born in French-mandated Syria in 1931 in the town of Homs to a "self-made millionaire" father with no university education who owned "several entire villages" and a homemaker, traditional mother. He was one of five children – the only son of a family with 4 daughters."

Steve Jobs 1955-2011

"I don’t know where to start and where to end. The most sad news I heard as soon as I woke up this morning “Steve Jobs passed away” I didn’t believe, I thought it was a prank or a mistake. I kept checking, I went to Apple.com and saw his photo with Steve Jobs 1955-2011, and that’s when I fell on the ground deep in mixed emotions, and memories. And I was still in shock not believing it, I still am. It’s not his time."

Was Steve Jobs a Muslim?

"Was Steve Jobs a Muslim? Hey, I’m just sayin’ because this is the kind of thing Republicans would scream about if the deceased looked a little ah, darker and he wasn’t a 1%’er: Jobs’ biological father is a man named Abdulfattah Jandali, a Syrian who was a political science graduate student when he met Jobs’ biological mother, an American named Joanne Simpson."

STEVE JOBS: 1955-2011

"Steve Jobs is dead. One big question is whether the unbelievably innovative culture he forged will live. Jobs was not a great human being, but he was a great, transformative, and historical figure. Many books were dashed off describing what a tyrannical person Jobs could be—how he took the parking spaces of the handicapped, how he reduced employees to tears. Those tales will fade like yesterday’s newspapers."

Steve, we want you back!

"Hmmm.. I was expecting more from Apple. After nearly 15 months of iPhone 4 in the market, I was hoping to see a completely new iPhone with a new design. Last night’s keynote reminded me of the iPhone 3Gs keynote. It felt exactly the same! They started by repeating the iOS features and they ended up with introducing a faster iPhone with the same design. It’s worth noting that Steve Jobs didn’t appear in 3Gs keynote too!"
