    Malaysia similarity design flag with USA sometime got us in troubles. When Malaysian medical & relief volunteers were in Iraq they were attacked by locals that mistaken our flag as American. One of them was shot in the butt, luckily no casualty.
    Edit: actually there were 2 casualties from the attack. A Syrian driver & a local Iraqi volunteer were killed. 2 Malaysian was injured, one was shot in the hip (not butt). She is Dr Jemilah Mahmood, the brave woman who is the leader of the volunteer group.
