US has sent Israel thousands of 2,000-pound bombs since Oct. 7

Not really complicated. That's why Irish MEP Clare Daly called him "Butcher Biden" and said he dishonors the legacy of his ancestors. It seems many Irish-Americans agree.

Gorgeous. Two of my favorite things.

  1. Arabs at the rise of Islam already were speaking different dialects and so they took those differences with them.
  2. Different regions have had different influences, e.g. Coptic and Greek in Egypt, Punic, Latin and Amazigh in North Africa, Nubian in Sudan, and so on.
  3. 1400 years of divergent history, including different foreign rule in different regions.

Yet more progressive than many US states on things like abortion and divorce.

Haaretz May 26, 2019: Alabama, Iran, or Saudi Arabia? We Checked Where Abortion Laws Are Better for Women.

Sherine Hamdy, a professor of Muslim bioethics at the University of California, Irvine, notes that for Muslim women, the U.S. anti-abortion trends are worrying not only because they harm women’s rights to reproductive agency, but also because they diminish religious freedoms, since Muslim religious ethics make a strong case for women’s well-being taking priority over that of the fetus.

The Center for American Progress JUL 8, 2022: Authoritarian Regimes Have More Progressive Abortion Policies Than Some U.S. States.

This means that Americans in states that effectively outlaw abortion, including Alabama, Arkansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and South Dakota, will have fewer human rights protections than those in Iran or Saudi Arabia—countries that are often vilified by politicians across the ideological spectrum for their treatment of women. Iran, for example, allows abortion in cases of fetal impairment, and Saudi Arabia allows for abortion when the health of a patient is at risk—including mental health, which can function to allow for abortion in cases of rape or incest—contrary to only the narrow “life” or “medical emergency” exceptions that are now increasingly common in state bans in the United States.

A material analysis explains it. The Middle East gradually became poorer and the local governments couldn't support and promote science anymore. Why they became poorer? Perhaps European colonialism had something to do with it, as it circumvented Middle Eastern trade routes.

The massacres Italians committed in Libya and Ethiopia were the model that inspired Nazi Germany.

Israel lost to Hezbollah twice before and they were nowhere near as strong now.

This is most probably what's really happening. The same way Democrats try to get right wing extremists in Republican primaries to win because they see them as easier to win against.

As long as you don't see Palestinians/Arabs as people, I agree.
