Greg's keffiyeh (his black and white scarf)

I can't answer your question, but I did want to point out that he wasn't a soldier in Afghanistan, he was there filming, same as he was doing in Moldova...I can't remember fully what it was but something like a documentary of a girl's boarding school, to help show how the country was progressing or something?? I kept getting thrown off by that too, when the girl woke him up & he freaked out I thought "wouldn't a soldier with PTSD be more likely to snap into survivor mode & attack her straight off the bat?" or I'd think "good thing he's there so they have someone who knows how to defend a position" & things like that, but the actuality was that he was a civilian, not a soldier...& they made the mistake of filming the funeral in Moldova & pissing everyone off, so maybe he unintentionally did the same kinda thing while in Afghanistan with the scarf...

The keffiyeh is a symbol of Palestinian solidarity, however it has unfortunately also become a fashion trend among young people who are completely ignorant to it's significance. Urban Outfitters actually labels them as "Anti-War Woven Scarfs" and offers them in a variety of colors.
