Author/Lecturer: Saul Silas Fathi
Saul Silas Fathi was born to a prominent Jewish family in Baghdad, Iraq. At age 10, he was smuggled out of Baghdad through Iran and eventually reached the state of Israel. He began writing a diary at age 11 and had several stories published in Israeli youth magazines. In 1958, he worked his way to Brazil where he nearly starved. In 1960, he came to the U.S. on a student exchange visa. After Basic Training in Fort Benning, Georgia, he was sent to helicopter school at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and there enrolled at the University of Virginia. Within a few months, Saul was shipped to South Korea where he served with the 1st Cavalry Division, 15th Aviation Company, the famed helicopter division in the Vietnam War. Saul retired in 2003 and began writing his memoirs, Full Circle: Escape from Baghdad and the return. Today, he lives in Long Island, New York, with his wife Rachelle. He is also a certified linguist, fluent in English, Hebrew, Arabic, and Portuguese.
Mr. Fathi has lectured at 160+ organizations since 2006, and authored 2 books: “Full Circle: Escape from Baghdad and the return” (ISBN#978-0-977117-8-9) and “History of the Jews and Israel” (ISBN# 978-0-9777117-3-4). Mr. Fathi will be publishing a major book on Islam shortly.
