Yasser Arafat never denied this, it wasn't untill Saddam getting nuked from Kuwait that he realised that his Dream is dead

Neither does Hamas, they declared Palestine as "ard waqf" that belongs to Muslims worldwide
I’m mostly talking about westerners. The initial plan wasn’t for a Palestinian state and one of these leaders gave a fuck. All they wanted was Israel to gtfo.

in an alternate timeline the levant would be a war zone between multiple Arab countries, including the Palestinian people.
 
For Umm Kalthum you have to sit on your ass for 60 minutes to get the experience. Fairouz is better when you're riding in the morning. Better in the winter too.
Fairouz singing about our cities hit much closer among the people while Umm Kalthum singing is more state-oriented. The emotions and authenticity are much greater among the works of Fairouz.
Biggest problem is that Umm Kalthum was doing traditional Modal music, the type that's you basically have to be there in person to enjoy
 
Concession accepted. Fairouz wins.
More accurately

Umm Kalthum is "background festival music" for the lack of a better term, Fairuz is closer to the Modern(like 1800s onwards) Pop tradition where listeners are supposed to pay attention to the Music

Fairuz also is a Syriac Levant Girl, umm Kalthum is a Rural falaha, it's like asking why Adel Imam's movies are so "crass" while Bab Al Hara feels closer to Turkish Drama

Kurds will probably end up uniting Persians (and the other ethnicities who identify as Iranian first) under one banner if the PKK escalates things, breaking up Iran is a red line to everyone, from the Ayotallah worshippers, to the Shah worshippers, to the Zoroastrians, to even the average Los Angeles Diaspora Liberal Single Mom with a Half Black Kid

PKK already burnt their weapons. Kurds aren't gonna unite themselves let alone all iranic groups, and I doubt they even want to.

And you bring up the weirdest things at times talking about moms with biracial kids. If Iranian diaspora is anything like Arab diaspora in the USA, they most likely out-marry with whites.

You misunderstood my comment, it's about how the mere idea of a single region of Iran splintering out will make the Biggest Enemies in Iran unite

Iran's current borders are like India China Or Egypt's, a non negotiable part of their identity, it's nothing like Burma or Yugoslavia

Anyone who supports seperatists doesn't understand that this will only make The Regime look better in the eyes of the average Iranian

In more MENA news looks like the UAE backed Yemen government quickly fell apart after seceding
UAE were idiots for attacking the Saudi-backed forces because they thought MBS was lobbying Trump against them in Sudan.

I wonder if Saudis will keep going to end their influence in Sudan and Somalia now.

More like they misunderstood him , they thought that as long as they didn't attack Saudi Arabia itself he would tolerate their side quests

They forgot that Saudi Arabia still sees itself as the Ba'al of the gulf and that UAE acting too "independent" would be seen as attacking the authority of Bin Salman

The fact it, if Yemen splits up the Houthis would become a threat to Saudi Arabia's Zaidi territories , so UAE became as much as a threat as Qatar and Iran to him with one move

Saudis want to be the clear Arab superpower in the MENA don’t get why these other gulf countries want to test them

There is a lot on my mind to say.
Seen a couple of more angles

yeah ICE has to go. The DHS can handle immigration enforcement instead. This weaponization of the agency just showed how fucked the organization is

She blocked the road, was ordered to get out of the car, she refused and tried drive over a officer in front of the car and hit him, the officer in the front was the one who shot here as you can see the bullet shot in the front window

The screen shot you posted he doesn't even have his gun drawn

We have footage of him shooting AS she turned away from him.
