A document signed by the cultural attache at the Saudi embassy in Washington instructs Muslims arriving in the U.S. not to initiate a greeting when meeting Christians or Jews, and never to convey good wishes marking a Christian or Jewish holiday. The attache recommends that the Muslim believer avoid friendships with the infidels, be careful not to imitate their customs (e.g., not to wear a cap and gown at a graduation ceremony), and try not to remain in the country any longer than required.
