When I was in Saudi they stopped me at the checkpoints. I showed my Iqama (ID booklet) and they opened up a smile. Cars are waiting and queing up behind me, and they want to talk with me about football. Samething at baggage checking at arrival hall in King Fahd International Airport. All those foreigners serious, almost trembling waiting and I was exchanging jokes with the officers checking my luggage. And they end up saying: "We like Prazy" (Brazil). One time I asked: "Why you like Brazil?" He didn't think for a second: "Because your country doesn't go everywhere making trouble for other people.

You need to keep the heel of your boot on their throat at all times. One day you release the pressure for a millisecond and they will come to your throat. Believe me, it won't be a nice sight.
