2 things i missed

1. The shoes were missing from the temple where the muslims were praying, resulting in them having to walk barefooted from the temple to the cafe, on streets as hot as coals. So they got angry and assumed it was the Christians who took their shoes.

2. She said, "Don't worry, he doesn't like girls like me." She knew that there was something going on between Amal and Rabie.

1. The same things that American seem to fight over; insults to the mother. Really it was that pathetic. He and his muslim compatriots arrived at the cafe annoyed as their shoes were stolen but he got into a slanging match with one of the christian men and then fisticuffs over insults to his mother.

2. That Rabih preferred Amal to the Russian belly dancer who had been dancing flirtatiously around him.

Keep silent unless what you are going to say is more important than silence.
