They are a long way from done. Likud has its roots in Revisionist Zionism, and Israeli society and politics has shifted even further right.

I think they meant the destruction of Carthage something I am still sore about

Better late than never. Arab and Muslim countries have a greater obligation to stand with Palestine

Turkiye when measured by GDP PPP is 8x as big as the usurper entity. Turkiye will be fine, it is the settlers who are becoming more isolated in the region.

I agree, and your question is valid. It is a general humanitarian concern. We are all equally humans. But Zionists have multiple times used Arabs’ and Muslims’ governments failure to act and failure to be principled against the occupation as arguments against the rights of Palestinians.

China xenophobic? I don’t think Biden knows what the word means. The oldest mosque outside of the Middle East is in China of all places built in 627 CE, and still standing.

What happened to the mosques in Spain and Occupied Palestine? Turned into bars and chicken coops.

I lived there for four years. Nice and friendly people. Never felt unsafe.

still a higher standard than many modern Western states such as Israel, or a modern democracy such as India, if the Chinese were xenophobic they could have demolished the mosque at any point in history, they didn’t

dynasties and ideologies came and went in China and the mosques still stand

what happened to mosques in Spain? what is happening to mosques in Occupied Palestine and India right now?

Islam is xeno (foreign) to China and yet you have mosques from the 7th and 8th centuries still standing

otherwise you’re treated like the Uighurs.

here’s an interesting fact, they are the only Turkic people who still use their centuries old script, and haven’t been secularized and westernized unlike Turks in the former USSR or Turkiye.

The issue for the Uyghurs is separatism, not Islam or culture in particular. No nation will tolerate separatists. dkiapcss.edu/…/uyghur-muslim-ethnic-separatism-in…cfr.org/…/east-turkestan-islamic-movement-etim

The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation report on the Uyghur did not find anything concerning, though the OIC has been criticized by Western rights groups. Interestingly, when it comes to Palestine the situation is reversed, where the OIC is speaking up but Western rights groups have been mostly silent. It is confusing seeing Anthony Blinken criticize China for the alleged genocide of Uyghurs, I haven’t seen any images or videos that suggest it is real, but unabashedly defend Israel’s actions which are clear and evident genocide.

Did you put effort into learning Japanese? I didn’t experience any exclusion.

True. But I did mention that they were also friendly. I had no issue getting into all sorts of activities with them. From playing the Shamisen to practicing Sadō. I had lots of friends who would help me out in all sorts of things, such as the University entrance exam, moving stuff, and translation.

I’m speaking of my experiences of course. I come from a different cultural background (Arab). I lived in both the US and Japan, and in almost all aspects except employment and income, I prefer Japan. Your mileage may vary.

PanArab, 7 days ago

Have you lived there? Not my experience. I felt like I was welcomed. I was welcomed into their cultural activities, I was welcomed into their homes. I did put effort into learning the language and the culture, and followed their norms to the best I can.

EVs are cheaper to fill up than internal combustion engine cars, even in oil rich countries - Changan Eado EV, 9 Saudi Riyal (2.4USD) to drive 460km (287.5miles) - . I want to get an EV eventually, I just want to know how well can they handle +50C temperatures.
