I think someone needs to invent a tiny portable arabic translater. How nervous would these guys be if they suspected people could understand what they were saying to each other.

I was in Burger King this week with my daughter and the only other customers were two young ME men. I just kept getting the feeling that they were talking arrogantly and carefree because they knew no one could understand what they were saying.

It could be amusing in such a circumstance to remark, not into their conversation of course, but to another person in line, "From their accent they could be Egyptian, possibly Al-ismailiya."
