UBN's post reminds of the story about Thesiger visiting the desert for the first time after the war. Meeting an old Bedouin friend, he remarked on the signs of social progress: whilst the man still rode on the donkey, his wife now walked in front of him rather than behind. 'No social progress', said the old Bedou, 'landmines'.
