The Great Mecca Feast is a 1928 documentary film by George Krugers (pictured). It follows a group of Muslim men from the Dutch East Indies on the hajj pilgrimage, showcasing elements of everyday life and worship in the Hejaz region of the Arabian Peninsula – including the hajj itself. As Mecca was closed to non-Mus...

#CENTCOM published an image of a B-52 Bomber refueling in the ongoing Operation Epstein Fury, dated to March 26.

The image was geolocated to 27.0477883, 46.9865168, northwest of Ar Rafah, east of the King Abdulaziz Royal Reserve, eastern #SaudiArabia. The aircraft is moving in a northwest direction, which indicates it's therefore returning from an attack on Iran, and heading back to base (likely in the #UK).

#SaudiArabia has consistently asserted it has not given the US permission to use its airspace to launch attacks on Iran. CENTCOM's image states otherwise.

The release of the Image is clearly a signal from US to give Iran the needed proof that KSA is actively helping US/Israel attacking Iran, not just by fuel and US airbase, but also giving them permission to use their air space to attack.

✧ Mimodactylus ✧

Mimodactylus is a genus of istiodactyliform pterosaur that lived in what is now Lebanon during the Late Cretaceous, 95 million years ago. The only known specimen was discovered in a limestone quarry near the town of Hjoula. The owner of the quarry allowed the specimen to be prepared by researchers, and it was donated to the MIM Muse...

⬆️ @radiofreearabia

>>>> #ArabLeague nations in #NorthAfrica & the #ArabianPeninsula were on a path to normalizing relations with #Israel

>> No closer than we were in 2002

That's your opinion and beside the point I am making.

Regardless of whether #Arabs and #Israelis were closer to making peace in '23, the secret #Chinese-brokered #rapprochement between #Iran & #SaudiArabia derailed those talks, set up the chess board for #AxisOfResistance action timed for interference with #US #Election2024

>> In 1947, they’d just been informed that THEIR revolt against their former #Ottoman rulers was for the benefit of outsiders

#Palestinians did not revolt. The #Arabs did, and for that they earned their freedom and #ArabianPeninsula. British never promised #Palestine to Arabs. It was dreamed up by them in the #DamascusProtocol (see hashtag).

#ClimateCastrophe #DubaiDeluge

If you have ever been in #Dubai, another part of the #UnitedArabEmirates, or the #ArabianPeninsula, you will be shocked and easily believe that these were the severest #FlashFlods in the weather records of the region:

Even the airport is flooded.
Dubai turns into a modern-age venice, but only adopting the Bad characteristics.

Why are #Iran and #ArabLeague threatened by the tiny speck of land #FromTheRiverToTheSea?

Why do they call for the #destructionOfIsrael?

The #cruxOfTheProblem is it's the "connecting link which binds the #ArabianPeninsula with #Egypt and #Africa. If #Jews conquer [that land] they will prevent linking of the Arab nation; indeed they will split it into two unconnected parts. This will weaken the cause of #Arabism and will prevent its #solidarity and #unity as a nation”

#Iran is conspicuously absent from ArabLeague

#Iran has been fighting #proxy wars against #SaudiArabia (#KSA) since 1970s

#Putin wants to rebuild #IronCurtain & reconstitute the former #SovietUnion in his #RevanchistDreams.

#Iran & #Hamas are united in their quest to destroy #Israel, with support of majority of #ArabLeague in #NorthAfrica & #ArabianPeninsula

The path from #Kyiv to #TelAviv passes through several Iron Curtain countries, & through #Turkey, which was largely neutral in #WWII but not in #WWI

Turkey remains a thorn on side of #EU which currently has its #EUMembership on hold ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111378656529111144
