He was in full blown Captain Ahab mode. From hell's heart I spit at thee. I fully expected to see him hoist a harpoon, and throw it at a dummy of Mutaqa Sadr. He is obssessed with proving he's right, and damn the cost. He'll drag down as many souls as he can to prove he's right. He will stand on the bow of the Peqoud and shout there's victory, give me the shot ! ! I'll kill the white whale, I will be avenged, I will be triumphant. And meanwhile, the Arabs will go on killing each other because they are not of their tribe.
