Middle East culture don't see colour/race quite the same as Western cultures traditionally do when throwing out racist tropes.

A little like how India has caste systems.


Well, that's the defence in the Suarez/Evra case wasn't it? It doesn't really matter what someone is used to saying at home, because there's a context to be taken into account - and this context is a player took offence at a racially-based remark. The "fact" (and I don't think it is a fact, more of a prevailing opinion) that it's ok in the Middle East (or South America, in Suarez's case) doesn't diminish that someone was offended. Boxall doesn't strike me as a snowflake, so if something got under his skin then it must have been offensive.
