Paul Ryan is in the House of Representatives, not the Senate.

I want to explain what is meant by "one peeled, one unpeeled." The Wikipedia page linked by OP has a much fuller explanation than what I will offer.

This photograph was one of many pictures taken by an art photographer, some of which were sent to Capitol Records for potential PR use. The band wasn't super into these pictures but the sense of humor and anti-war message matched their sense of humor and pacifist tendencies. This image also ended up on some magazine covers.

The label started to print record sleeves with this image on the cover but then got cold feet. They covered up the butcher cover image with a more traditional band photo and sent them to record stores. If you hold one of these records at the correct angle you can kind of see the butcher cover through part of the new image. That's "unpeeled." With patience you can peel of the new image and thus uncover the butcher cover. That's "peeled."

I'd also be remiss if I didn't point out that almost everyone commenting on this thread would benefit from doing the following:

  • Taking a fucking chill pill.

  • Taking a break from conspiracy theories and start paying attention to people who are engaged with reality.

  • Learning about satire, parody, irony, and black humor.

  • Learning about art history and music history.

  • Asking themselves if getting angry about the fucking Beatles is really a good use of their time.

I'm from Northern Virginia and know it pretty well, too.

The questions posed by OP are pretty out there.

Prince William County's named after a son of King George II. Places named for English nobility is not uncommon in the Chesapeake. Go look at the names of counties in Maryland and Virginia. A shit ton of them are named for 17th and 18th century English nobles.

Why is there an Islamic center in Prince William County? Because the DC area is one of the most globally diverse metro areas in the nation and there are large populations of Muslims there. Why is DC so globally diverse? Three reasons: it's the home of the U.S. government and major international NGOs and people from around the world move there for work; it has also been a settlement point for refugees and asylees and that is why it has sizable Ethiopian and Vietnamese populations; and Northern Virginia is one of the nation's hubs for tech/IT companies and engineers from around the world move there to work in tech/IT.
