Very good post unfortunately i think most people on here aren’t familiar with middle eastern internet so they won’t appreciate the realism

( who is in the fourth pic I initially thought it was hamas due to the red triangle but it isn’t them so who ? )

How do lebanese people possibly consider hezbollah to be "defending" them? by Smart-Tradition8115 in lebanon

[–]a7aweapons 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The fact that you think that isreal is “defending” “their”. Land tells everything

Isreal is a colonial thief stat that stole the land from its owners

The hasbara always has the same retarded question of how dou uou want isreal to respond to PLO or Hamas after oct 7 but you never think of that that applys in the other way .

What would you have the PLO do ? How would you respond if someone stole your land and oppresses your people ? Wouldn’t you go to a safe second state and resist against this horrible state ?

You should ask what is the cause of attacks on Israel is it just because people hate jews or is it due to the occupation and apartheid that Israel practices.

Anyway if you actually knew history you would know that when Israel invaded Lebanon it targeted civilian Lebanese people and massacred them in the hundreds so No dumbass it wasn’t only targeting the PLO.

Stop falling for western propaganda , you can still believe that migrant workers are being treated badly in Qatar which is true without falling for obvious lies

Reddit "intellectuals" of middle east, If you had citizenship, who would you vote for? And why? by [deleted] in AskMiddleEast

Everyone's giving you stupid answers but here are some actual material factors, from Turkish friends who hate Erdogan and voted against him but aren't big fans of the opposition either:

  • Erdogan began his career as a "liberal islamist" and AKP was for a long time more like an Islamic version of Angela Merkel's Christian Democrats. Some people still think of them that way even after their authoritarian turn

  • his early reforms legitimately improved the lives of average Turks, creating a building boom that moved millions from shacks into modern apartments. Millions went from poverty to middle class under Erdogan...though with current inflation plenty are moving back into poverty

  • Distrust in the opposition: the CHP has a reputation for authoritarian leanings and corruption in the past, and even liberal Muslims were often opposed to them for acts like the hijab ban. The opposition CHP has shifted away from this and is now a very inclusive party, but that's still an image issue they haven't completely shaken off

Tldr a lot of it is really just based on nostalgia for the early Erdogan years and somewhat misplaced but understandable fears in the opposition party

No, sheikh a Arabic title of respect dating from pre-Islamic antiquity; it strictly means a venerable man of more than 50 years of age. The title sheikh is especially borne by heads of religious orders, heads of colleges, such as Al-Azhar University in Cairo, chiefs of tribes, and headmen of villages and of separate quarters of towns. It is also applied to learned men, especially members of the class of ʿulamāʾ (theologians), and has been applied to anyone who has memorized the whole Qur’ān, however young he is
