Another major immigration success story, too! From the Middle East no less.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
It's odd though since the article seems to read as if Steve's mother was pressured to abandon him by her father but Steve's biological father didn't have a say in it. Only later after the divorce they described Mr. Jandali as distant but that's no surprise after a divorce.
Yeah there's definitely more to the story, and many sides of it... but I guess all that is ancient history and Jobs took it to its grave. No use in them arguing about it after he's gone. Real life doesn't wrap up like in the movies :-/
Those eyes,lips and nose are very similar..;)
Well, Jobs' children are still alive. I can't believe they too would be so mad at their grandfather that they wouldn't want to meet him. He should wait till things calm down and then knock on a door in Cupertino.

It takes more than blood to make a grandfather.

Anyway, if I were him I'd make the trek to Cupertino.
This article doesn't go into the reasons for which Steve Jobs was given up for adoption. His biological father reportedly said, "I honestly do not know, to this day, if Steve is aware of the fact that had it been my choice, I would have loved to keep him." Steve Jobs is claimed by Syrians as his own, and there are suggestions that the father of his mother forced him to be adopted out of Islamophobia or anti-Semitism.
