Arabs and guns.
December 31st, 2006 by elie
I don’t get it. Call me culturally ignorant.
Why do I always see photographs of Arabs celebrating or protesting or mourning, always with guns present or being shot into the air?
Anti Saddam Iraqis celebrating his death. (NYTimes)
Pro Saddam Iraqis protesting his death. (NYTimes)If it’s a cultural thing, I don’t get it, and I’d love for someone to explain. I understand the criticisms available, that isn’t what I’d like to hear. I want to know why.
