> No other country makes you take off your shoes.

No offence, but that is simply not true.

At European airports one is not always, but regularly, asked to take off his shoes.

I would say occasionally, not regularly. I don't think I've had to take off my shoes flying through European airports in at least 5 years, and even then it's generally because you set off the metal detector.

It happens in asia occasionally as well but you can usually leave them on.
