But, before that he wants Americans to know him and also learn about other Syrian children and the suffering many have had to endure through an ongoing civil war.
When the president delivers his State of the Union address Tuesday night, Ahmad will be there, along his father, as Moulton’s guest.

Nine-year-old Ahmad Alkhalaf, of Sharon, has come a long way from his home country of Syria to watch President Barack Obama deliver his final State of the Union address.
When Ahmad was seven, he lost three siblings and both his arms when the Syrian government bombed his family’s refugee camp. His experience, sadly, is not unlike that of thousands caught in the Syrian conflict.
