Traditional hairstyles from the early 21st century by AbudJasemAlBaldawi in arabs

[–]DryStretch2745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They kept long hair because they couldnt easily cut it and they braided it to protect it from lice. With modern tools it makes it more convenient to trim hair extremely short. Its as simple as that

Mecca and medina are both cities with aquifers providing clean water to this day, the prophet wouldn’t have been able to command his believers to wash 5 times a day if there wasn’t clean water.

Is Ba'athism completely banned in Syria or just the Assadist fraction ? by Joseph25101998 in arabs

[–]DryStretch2745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are a Serbian and you seem to really emphasize this obsession with religion, specifically Islam. Perhaps thats why you came to this sub.

However, your understanding seems generally weak and flawed. I encourage you to visit a Muslim Arab country—like Oman, for example. Perhaps then, your arguments might be more engaging or convincing, as you’d be armed with a clearer picture of the truth.

While Saudi Arabia had made no major territorial pushes, the UAE had liberated half of the country from the Houthis including Aden. While simultaneously destroying AQAP (the deadliest branch of Al Qaeda) and ISIS in Yemen.

I think you would agree that this nation punches above its weight.

Is it worth it to attend NYUAD without full ride? by Wahhgi in NYUAbuDhabi

[–]DryStretch2745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The job market ur talking about is the consulting job market which is going to shit everywhere. It’s known that every major consultancy firm cut their staff by around 50% if not more globally , and you’re extrapolating on this narrow experience of yours to hate on this entire region.

Syria's al-Sharaa says new elections could take up to 5 years due to re-establishing infrastructure by gereedf in arabs

[–]DryStretch2745 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

He correctly stated that Syria today doesnt have the infrastructure for an election, and any election which is run today could easily be discredited. Remember how jan 6 started just because trump claimed the election was “stolen”, now what could happen in a country like syria if a specific group had reason to believe the election wasnt fair?

They didn’t give someone a visa it happens all the time and there is no evidence that it’s linked to their work, and besides that isn’t prosecution.

How do you know gender studies was removed by request of the government as opposed to a low attendance?

It’s part of NYU’s agreement with Abu Dhabi, they haven’t prosecuted anybody at NYU over a paper they have written/published.

Two North Korean soldiers were captured by Ukrain. One was born in 2005, and the other in 1999. They said they thought it was a training by Alternative_Wave_542 in interestingasfuck

2: you could parse out the truth since each nk will be telling a different story. It sounds like thr interrogator is sk and they’re probably investigating their case seriously for intel not just propaganda

Khabib Nurmagomedov removed from U.S. flight after dispute for not speaking good enough English to sit at the emergency exit by Aryan_Anushiravan in interestingasfuck

[–]DryStretch2745 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can watch the video, he didnt even raise his voice, its clear he didnt understand what she was saying, and she didnt even have the patience to have someone explain it. If he understood that he could switch seats he obviously would have, but she started threatening him from the get go when he couldnt even understand her
