When the president holds hands with the rulers of Suadi Aribia....?

Question

When he is holding hands with the rulers does he have a firm manly grip or a lite gentle squeeze.....

what does his grip style suggest about his feelings......

PS i know the cultural reason why....i am asking a diffrent and specific one.

I am follower of Christ...thanks RZ .....i mean whatever your name is...wink wink...

for extra points do they have a good chuckle at the fact that a majority of the 9/11 hijackers were from thier country and we bombed Iraq?

Answer 1

Having visited many an Arab country I can tell you grown men often hold hands.
It's an expression of trust & means it leaves only one hand to grasp a weapon so it has roots in warcraft.
Now they do it as the old-age beliefs have died out but the tradition remains.


Oh & when they walk along together holding hands it's a statement of "this is my friend/brother/kin ".
Power struggles ensue only when shaking hands, a European custom not Arab.

Answer 2

I understand your reason for asking this question.As a true follower you will never be a leader and find out first hand so you resort to asking someone else but you are at the wrong level to ever get and honest informed answer
