    Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman's recent comments to US magazine The Atlantic should be seen very much in this light.

    Asked if he believes that the Jewish people have a right to a nation-state in at least part of their ancestral homeland, the crown prince - in effect the day-to-day ruler of Saudi Arabia - said: "I believe that each people, anywhere, has a right to live in their peaceful nation. I believe the Palestinians and the Israelis have the right to have their own land.

    I don't know.. Abortion is legal in Arabia.. They are conservative and family oriented so babies are welcome. But, they have a longstanding tradition of spacing babies a few years apart for the health of mother and child.

    That tradition is dying out.. Women write the terms of the marriage contract.. and many of them write in no other wives.

    Trump is jealous of world leaders who have real power. The dictators and strongmen. He wants to have that kind of power.

    Being US president is the pinnacle of real power. The dictators are just a small time chieftains, worrying if they gonna see another day’s light :)

    The Power of the President is quite limited relative to the power of Putin, Kim, Xi Jinping - and this is a good thing.

    Suudis are your best friend in Middle East after Israel.

    Why don't you respect your friend? :)

    Actually Islam does not ban driving. In Quran, There is nothing writes about it.


    But Arabs were usually killing female babies before Islam. That savages were always bad for women - saw women as a good to sell and stg to feel ashamed (thats why they were wearing burka even before islam) and childmaker machine to f**k.

    All of these are reflected in their concept of Islam. Thats why Turks and Arabs are irrelevant Muslim types.

    Of course not .. Islam - as is the case with Christianity- is more a function of man made dogma than of the Qu'ran or the Bible. Religion is a tool by which the elite maintain power and control the raging masses.

    I once had a conversation with a Muslim who maintained "there is no compulsion in Islam". I responded - this is good - and added that the "Golden Rule" is also found in Islam - "Don't do to others what you would not want done to you/Treat others as you would be treated".

    I then started to talk about Sharia saying that - by definition - Sharia law is compulsion - it is forcing religious beliefs on others through physical violence (Law).

    It is impossible to maintain a logical coherence between the two "Sharia/no compulsion" and although the person I was conversing with tried .. they could not in the end reconcile the two.

    Yes I am sure. All of these crap, Arabic cultural reflection which humiliates women.

    In Turkish language, husband calls his wife as "Hanım" means " you are my leader/my Han"

    In Arabic they use stg like "Avrat" and it means stg to be ashamed to be hidden. :)))

    Thats why olur women drive car ans tehdit hair waving freely with winds :) but in Suudi arabs they wear like black insects with 50 degrees hot... eeaghh they had been before islam but we had women rulers and general in our army. Huns, Gokturks and all the Turkic Khagahtes had always had women warriors and rulers

    This is our historic difference
