Is the spider especially loathed in Arab lands?

Yes, many types are poisonous and aggressive. I've just been told some great stories from a friend (just back) and a few are definitely dealing with "camel spiders"... supposedly they love shadow and will crawl anywhere to get it. Clothes, glass cases, etc... nasty poison bite as well.

Cu Chi Tunnels - Demo of a Spider Hole

The Cu Chi Tunnels are a big tourist draw and a bit commercial, but interesting nonetheless. This young man demonstrates how VC used to crawl through the tunnels to a well camoflaged hole, then pop out when a fight began.
