"There is also some cultural differences that can be seen as lying, even though they are closer to social protocols rather than what we'd deem as such."

You didn't mean this when you said it?

Then why did you say it?

Or do you just wish you didn't say it? Because it is an excellent explanation for why non-Middle Easterners perceive Middle Easterners as "lying bastards"?
