They were left speechless when their store was emptied. But they believed their words.
Not all Muslims prohibit alcohol. It depends on the tribe. They actually have wineries in Jordan, and, the white wine is actually pretty decent. The United Arab Emirates permits alcohol and I even had a few beers with a chap in Arab garb when I was in Dubai in December. Qatar is another Muslim country that permits alcohol. And yes, there is an actual liquor store just outside the gate of Victory Base Camp here in good ole' Iraq.
