The worst Arab insult

The worst Arab insult. According to the March 6th New York Post, bitter enmity between Iraq and Kuwait erupted in a shouting match this week at an Islamic summit meant to unify the world's Muslims against war. In a clash caught on live TV before the Qatar state broadcaster shut down transmission, a top Iraqi official, Izzat Ibrahim, shouted at a Kuwaiti delegate sitting across the conference chamber: "Shut up, you minion, you U.S. agent, you monkey. You are insolent. You are a traitor to the Islamic nation. A curse on your mustache."
