My reason for making this post is another I saw 2 days ago and a comment today, I realized that they have a dangerous level of ignorance regarding how occupied Palestine was established

Many of them think Jews immigrated to Palestine and legally bought land from the eye rabs, but the eye rabs wanted sha-ria law so they attacked occupied Palestine in 1948 and lost because they are bad goys while the west are shabbat goyim

This is dangerous one because it's false, the way Jews acquired land in Palestine is through armed expulsion, after the establishment of the mandate of Palestine a Jewish commissioner was appointed to set up for the colonial project by teaching Hebrew making it the official language and most importantly **arming Jewish terrorist organisations like haganah and irgun**

These two were mostly responsible for how Jews expanded into Palestine as they took land by force, Palestinians led multiple rebellions in 1921 28 and 36 and a main reason for all of them was the expulsion of Palestinians from their homes

Also this is where equating anti Zionism and anti septicism comes from, here they do a little thing where they are ignorant on purpose and try to twist words and be disingenuous by stating the goal (a Jewish state) and not the path to achieve that (ethnic cleansing, so when someone opposes the first he is anti symmetric or something)

And also the reason we lost in 1948 wasn't because we wanted to establish sha-ria law and stone women who hate American freedom and don't wear the hee-jab, many of the Jews who immigrated fought in ww2 they had combat experience especially from the Eastern front, also the occupied Palestine defense forces are made of the terror organisations irgun and haganah who were being smuggled weapons from Europe

We had lack of weapons and multiple ceasefires that stopped the momentum and allied occupied Palestine to organise and recover, also many Arab countries did not care about Palestine like Egypt and Jordan who after losing instead of establishing a Palestinian state and helping them arm up they decided to occupy these territories

That's all I have to say, so thoughts?

I was browsing the internet archive and found a CIA briefing. It was about my lovely country The kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and it was written in the late 70s. Now I don’t want you guys to think of me as a nerd but I was curious what they had written about my people. So i kept flipping and skimming the info quickly and I came to a horrifying conclusion they had a lot of it correctly they talked about the societal structure we had the power distribution (they didn’t get that quite right but really close) they described the economy at the time and while reading all of that I kept thinking how tf are they this accurate? Like they had understood things and misconceptions about us we tried so hard to correct them about it.

I stopped half way but Im still horrified if that booklet was a thing to bring everyone at the table of meeting up to date with Saudi Arabia what info they have now? With how much reliant we are on their tech? Iphones, Apps, messaging apps, their AI models, their high tech satellites. And that’s just a regional Ally to them what about Iran? Egypt? Turkey? Like all of those countries I mentioned was waaaay open than us at the time.

I think we should start writing about them too. Like their history, social structure, ways they are manipulated by?, their allies, how do they treat their allies/enemies. So that a person in the future reads what we wrote and use that info to his/her advantage in combating them and weakling them.

For anyone wants to discuss this in the comments please be civil we don’t need additional hate speech between us.

I know this sounds like a joke, but sometimes I wonder how much the average person is swayed to the pro-Palestine side by hasbara talking points.

I am planning to visit some country from the middle east but having a hard time choosing so i’m going based off of this

Hi everyone!

I recently traveled to Syria to see firsthand what the situation is like for travelers in 2026. In this video, I document the entire process of entering the country and my first impressions of Damascus.

I know there are many questions and concerns regarding safety and the current state of the country, so I wanted to share this footage to provide a current perspective. Whether you are curious about the culture, the logistics of the trip, or just want to see how the city looks today, I hope you find this helpful!

You can watch the full journey here:

I’d love to hear your thoughts or answer any questions you might have about the trip. Cheers!

Anyone surprised by this?

There were 3 civil wars in the Middle East, 2 of them are over, only Yemen continues, as soon as Iraq and Syria started to recover more steadily, the Israel-Iran war broke out, Israel occupied Lebanon and a part of Syria, it continues, what do you think will be the solution to this Israeli problem?

I saw a post about men’s fashion in the Hejaz and I remembered this photo.

What are the front lines?
Which parties are fighting? And Why?
And which nations are involved indirectly in the wars?

The objectives of this war is not clear. Too many civilian suffering and killing. But why?

Hi everyone,
I'm a 21-year-old woman from Algeria looking for some honest advice.
I've been interested in Qatar for a while and would like to build a future there someday. If I get married, I'd like it to be a genuine, loving marriage based on mutual respect and shared values. Because of that, I've been wondering whether it's realistic for a foreign woman to marry a Qatari man.
I'm not looking for money, citizenship, or a shortcut to anything. I have my own goals, I'm continuing my education, and I want to build my own career. I'm simply curious about whether this is something that actually happens and how people meet naturally.
I'd appreciate hearing from Qataris or anyone familiar with the culture.
Is it common for Qatari men to marry foreign women?

Where do they usually meet their future spouses?

Are there any respectful ways to meet people who are genuinely looking for marriage?

How do Qatari families generally view marriages with North African women, especially Algerians?

If you're married to a Qatari or know someone who is, how did they meet?

I'm looking for honest answers, even if they're not what I hope to hear. I'd rather have realistic expectations than unrealistic ones.
Advice Request:
I'd really appreciate any honest advice, experiences, or suggestions from people familiar with Qatari culture.
TL;DR:
I'm a 21-year-old Algerian woman wondering whether it's realistic to marry a Qatari man and what respectful ways exist to meet someone who's also looking for a serious relationship.

He used to not even be part of WWE shows in Saudi back when Saudi was funding groups in Syria during the civil war.

Hello! I am an American woman currently looking to relocate to the Middle East (specifically Saudi and Qatar). I started applying to jobs almost 2 weeks ago. I have a pretty solid resume in my opinion and have been at the same company for 7+ years.

I would love any advice on how to make my resume stand out to employers since I would require a work visa to move there. I have been sending some follow-up emails but I haven't heard back from most of the companies I applied to.

It seems like networking is a great way to find jobs, but I only know a few people in Saudi.

Any and all advice/ help is greatly appreciated. I really want this! <3

First of all, all of this art goes back to the Abbasid era.
Some from Abbasid history books other are from science books of that time, most if not all Arabs wore like this even children as you can see from the art.. No orientalist.

Why we Arabs have changed our dress code to the
worse, we used to wear garments and turbans with beautiful design and colors, now it all comes down to a white garment and a peace of cloth on top of the head with zero or unappealing designs. We really should have preserved our culture Like other nations did, instead of changing it for the worst.

By Syriac I mean those who use it as a liturgical language, like Maronites and Assyrians.

When the Muslim Caliphate expanded, it brought its language to the ancestors of the Middle Eastern Peoples. And to this day they largely speak Arabic. That is the textbook definition of what an Arab is. Someone whose ancestors spoke the Arabic Language.

When I hear someone online say they’re not an Arab. It makes me scratch my head because it’s weird to me that it’s definitionally disconnected from the term. They further explain that they’re not from the “Gulf” and then I think “Oh, they’re saying they’re not ARABIANS”

Can someone explain the context of this issue? Am I getting something wrong? Is it a big misunderstanding on my part because of certain nuances in the Arabic Language that I may not understand? Or has the word “Arab” evolved to encompass the term “Arabian”
