So I gave this Syrian guy a lift......

Postby Cap » Sat Nov 26, 2011 6:10 pm

Stopped at the periptero for a pack of smokes and a coffee.
A non local looking dude stops me as I was walking out and asks for a lift if I was heading in his direction. Said yeah, no problem.
Started chatting, asked him where he's from, Syria he says..
I offer him a smoke like a typical Kypreo and he refuses. No problem I says, your religion obviously forbids it, I apologize.
He gives me a confused look and then silence for a while.
Finally he says in broken Greek... dude, I don't want a cigarette cos I don't smoke that brand, and so you know, me and my buddies drink (a lot) too and we roll a joint of hashish every now and then... with a look of satisfied defiance........

Interesting.

He must been under 30 and he must be one of the new Arab generation.

Watch this song... this is how we really live and it is not just a video.

Sad enough, the media in the Islamic countries in an inside war with what they call morally wrong life style (do not talk about it, show it and ignore that some Musilms choose not to go with the flow and live to their own understanding of personal freedom of deciding weather you are going to be religious and keep up the mentality of your grand parents or you will lose the old used hat and let your hair free haha (inside joke between liberal Arabs like my self, through the card of rusty traditions away and take this hat off))
