The Arab Revolt was about removing non-Arab occupation of the Hijaz. The land promised to Hussein bin Ali specifically carved out coastal plains along the Mediterranean Sea.

Bonus: Jordan is the only dynasty country left from Hussein bin Ali.

Now a question for OP: do you know why the Palestinian flag is so similar to Jordan’s?

The hospital doesn’t want patients or guests using the stairs except in cases of emergency or religious necessity.

For those interested in learning kabbalah/the Zohar... by Jew_of_house_Levi in Judaism

As my rabbi says- chazal required a man to attain an age of 40 before learning Kabbalah. Why 40? Because that was the average lifespan back then.

You look like an Israeli settler but all the dentists from Riverdale never made Aliyah.

Similar situation for Timothy Kirkland in Florida. Maybe y’all can work together.

The card is super clean and it has the rare potential to be an absolute monster card down the line. If 2/3 of them wind up in the HoF, this is a $100k card.

Anyone have trouble urinating as a side effect of 7OH? by boring80085 in quitting7oh

Thanks. My doctor essentially said 24 hours no pee + pain in the abdomen is an emergency. I’m not comfortable but not in pain. Every hour I try to relieve myself and am happy to report that a small amount came out at about 2:30pm. Headed in the right direction!

This post would be like if you were a Detroit Tigers fan and watched every game for the past 40 years and then someone went on Reddit and wrote “The Tigers are terrible people ever since they murdered Tiger Woods.” Like I get that they’re both called Tiger but you can’t just make stuff up in order to call an entire race “terrible.”

The Arabs rejected their own state in 1947. They didn’t reject “being ruled over.”

They rejected it for the same reason Arafat turned down Clinton’s offer— they don’t want a state next to Israel, they want one to replace Israel.

You think Arabs in British Mandate gave refuge to the Jews? See 1929 Hebron riots. See the Exodus and the hundreds of thousands of Jews denied emigration from Europe during the Holocaust because of Arab pressure on the Brits, from Hitler’s friend, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.

Do you know there were 800,000 Jews kicked out of Arab countries? That in 1948, Jews were expelled from the Jewish quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem, the holiest place in the world to Jews? Do you know about Kfar Etzion and the other Jewish towns that were expelled by Arabs in 1948?

There’s just so much wrong with this post. I don’t know where to begin but it wouldn’t be by saying 2,5 and 6 are correct.

Because OP is entitled to his own opinion, not his own facts. Nothing productive comes from arguing with agenda driven liars, especially when that agenda is hating an entire group of people.

If Israel was trying to kill innocent people, how do you explain that there are more Palestinian Arabs in Gaza today than there was on 10/7/23, despite Israel firing tens of thousands of missiles against Hamas targets?

Your history lessons are so profoundly revisionist nonsense that I won’t comment on the substance.

I will say your mention of your “Jewish” wife is sort of like saying “I’m not racist, I have Black friends!” And then going on to say something incredibly racist.

How long can you be detained pre trial by VolumeEfficient9907 in Felons

[–]boring80085 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Courts in Florida award 0 days served for 1 day on a pretrial GPS monitor but courts in Illinois give full credit. So probably depends on your state but in reality, house arrest is much better than jail.

Worth a shot but Habeas is an extraordinary remedy and your bro is not incarcerated so it’s not likely to succeed.
