Its a shame that it is so bad in the homeland. I remember when I went to visit family 5 years ago in jerusalem, its like the people knew (even though I would say that I blend in easily) and were accordingly rude and hostile. In some places here in the states its getting to be like that as well, Louis had it right more than he ever knew.
Yeah - it's especially pronounced when I rock my thaqeeya/ghitra
