Funny. I've been in various countries in the Mid-East about 30 times and I've never seen anyone wearing a turban.

Yeah, yeah. Semantics. What exactly is the official name of the cloth wound around the head of EVERY SINGLE MALE seen in photos of the al-Qaeda gang, Arabs, etc? Please enlighten us so we can use the correct term when talking about "rag-heads." Thank you ever so much.

The Arabs terrorists living in Afghanistan have adopted the head dress of their Pashtu hosts. It is not called a turban. I don't know the exact name.
