Several nights of eavesdropping at the tables around me, I hear a steady stream of discussion about daily life: The price of bread, the cost of having your clothes cleaned and mended, or, if you are a little better off, of having clothes made. The food of the day. The health of your family. What fortunes the card games have brought. The weather. What kind of mobile phone you would buy if you were to buy a mobile phone. If you ask, these men will also tell you what they think of U.S. foreign policy and its effects in their part of the world.
