| This one's interesting, huh?
A recent (Nov. 2011) edict from the USMC Center for Advanced Operational Culture Learning asks, no, strike that: requires, Marines in country to not spit or urinate in the direction of, you guessed it: Mecca!

(This was gleaned from an International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) guidance to all troops in Afghanistan to revere the Quran and its teachings. That's the unmistakable message of COIN Advisory #20100924-001, which is available on the ISAF website.).
Enjoy. Oh, and do make sure you read and practice your culture lessons for the day, kiddies!
