activist from Syria [part one]

The asylum officer asked:
How do you know your interpreter? are  you paying him today?
Did anyone help you do the I-589? was it read back to you in your language?
How did you write your Declaration? what was the process?  you wrote it yourself in English? you typed it yourself?
Did your attorney help you write it?
= =
what is your full name? ever use any other names?   DOB? POB?
box 15 asks for your ethnic group? Box 16 asks for your religion?
when did you last leave your country? how come  you know that date so clearly?
when did you arrive in USA? why did you enter at that time?
IN OTHER WORDS, CAN YOU REPEAT WHAT YOU SAID ON PAGE ONE OF 589?
why did you come to the USA?
Show me your passport! I want to study it in silence for 2 minutes. {I
 will compare it to what you said on the 589]
Tell me  your address in October 2005! [this is 13 years ago, but tell me]
where did you live in 2006? you had three dif addresses in 2006?
where did you live in 2012?  in 2013?  you made errors on page 4 of the 589? if you make errors, then we will talk about addresses, not about harm you suffered.
Where did you live in the USA?
Tell me about your education: language school in 2007, which is 11  years ago
Today,  you  work at an office building: what is the address? how come you do not know the address?
4 years ago, you worked for 10 months for the X Corporation? how come it says 11 months on the 589? you were too busy to read your 589 before this interview?
you have 3 brothers, and two sisters? where is each one, right now? your sister voluntarily returned to the dangerous country last year, and no one has harmed her?
= ==
when  you were growing up, any problems in your country? NO? not any? I thought you were a persecuted minority ethnic group?
-any threats as a child? not any? really?
you finished high school in 2007? any problems before then? none? really? it was a wonderful experience to live as a minority under a cruel dictatorship?
What about your military service? wasn't there a compulsory draft? where are the documents showing your deferral? [the Syrian military is evil; almost all of its members are evil?]
ever go to a military office, yourself, to get a deferral?
Were you really a student in Turkey, or were you in the military at that time?
did you ever have a Syrian military I.D..? where is it now?
Your father was  poor; how did you pay for college? how pay for airplane tickets?
