“In this country we are still only visitors. We must be very careful. If we offend or break the law, we may bring the wrath from our hosts.” He sighs. “Boys like Tareq, they don’t think. They just do. They’re not good for our community. They’re vultures feeding off our fears.” –page 36
I found this paragraph very powerful. I linked a picture of a vulture because its body language was the perfect fit in this paragraph. If you look into its eyes you can see it is very intense, ready to pounce. It also seems a little fearful and sorrowful. This picture is perfect because it makes this paragraph complete and also describes Tareq very well. I also think of Tareq as a tiger because that’s his nickname and it fits him very well. In this case, tigers and vultures same similar qualities, which I find very interesting.
