Joseph Braude tells a fascinating, murder-inflected tale from Casablanca, Morocco, today in Tablet Magazine (he came for the waters; he was misinformed). Coming from his new book, The Honored Dead, his exchange with a cab driver who hears his Iraqi-accented Arabic and assume he is an Iraqi Arab is priceless.
