Musa Ghanem

Commander (UNSC) Musa, formerly Spartan-096, is a senior officer that was the one to propose the start of the SPARTAN-IV Program.

Biography
Musa was abducted with his fellow candidates in 2517. His body rejected the augumentations, forcing him to use a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He felt a grudge against Catherine Elizabeth Halsey and the Office of Naval Intelligence for allowing Dr. Halsey to experiment and kill the candidates. Musa found that while the Spartan-II Program was immoral, it was important, and with the forces of the Spartan-II's depleted he concluded that humanity needed more Spartans to be created. In 2553 they he and several Admirals met at HIGHCOM Facility Bravo-6 and discussed the details of the proposition.
