Over the years, I have encountered Europeans, Americans, Africans, Asians and Australians from all walks of life.. The ones which struck me as the most ignorant about Arabs [and a lot of subjects] were the Americans and Europeans. Some of the questions I’ve been asked were downright stupid , it would be offending if it were not pathetic…

“ Do you live in tents? “ “ Is it true you still use camels?” , “ How come you are not wearing a burqua ?”, “ Is it true you all have oil at home ?” … Hey hold it right there … they actually think that the pipeline runs through our home and each family take their own barrels of oil and sell them on the market… So many myths that I wish to dispel...
