Not just the border guards, either.

Maybe 20 years ago the Saudis had a big exposition in Washington about the wonders of their country. I found it very interesting. I had gone by myself early on a Sunday morning to avoid crowds and took advantage of the opportunity to ask questions. There were lots of official looking men around to answer them. I found them anywhere from officious to surly. A couple of them just ignored me when I spoke to them. If this is how their PR people treat the people with whom they come into contact, I'd hate to run into their border guards or their police.
