Erick Avari

Whenever the Afghan president, Hamid Karzai, appears with his old friend George W. Bush (you know, that crazy US president), I can't help but think of his lookalike, the actor Erick Avari. As you can see by comparing those two pictures, these men are quite resemblant to one another. Silly, isn't it?

Note that Mr Karzai was educated in America, before he graduated and became a member of several companies, among which several have interests in products for an army (namely the US Army)—and war in Afghanistan after the 9/11 attacks were a blessing for such companies, of course.

Note also that you can see Mr. Avari playing non-leading roles in many films, such as Daredevil with Ben Afleck (Avari was Electra's father), but also in series: he played a taxi driver in an early episode of Seinfeld.
