I'm not trying to be a bigot, but I am trying to understand......
Are you a complete ignorant? Have you ever stepped outside of the usa?
Dubai is little america. So is India and China. Americans are flying for airlines all over the world. The LAW in the USA is that if you have a right to work then you have a right to work regarless of race, creed or religion. Read the constitution. Just because a person has an accent on the radio doesn't make then any less of a citizen than you.
Buy an airline ticket to China, go to a airline and they WILL do what it takes to hire you. But have the balls to go over there and try it out.
