Some 25% is not a "huge chunk" nor are those 25% Saudi Arabians. They are temporary inhabitants with the exception of Palestinians and other Arab communities (that make up the vast majority of the expat community in KSA). I can assure you that nobody in the entire Arab world, expect for MB...

I hope you do realize that half of Europe is genetically and ancestrally the off-spring of people native to the Arab world (Neolithic farmers) who colonized all of Europe. What makes Northern and Western Europe genetically distinctive from us Arabs is the native European Paleolithic ancestry...

What the hell is "Gulf"? Gulf of Oman? Gulf of Aden? Gulf of Alexandria? Gulf of Aqaba? Gulf of Hammamet? Gulf of Sirte? Gulf of Suez? Gulf of Tunis The Arab Gulf? Those are just a few of the many gulfs in the Arab world. The countries in question are Arabian countries. Arab countries. Arabian...

Absolutely nobody in KSA reads Turkish "media" (read Erdogan controlled media) or cares about it the slightest. On a global scale it is absolutely unimportant as well with just 1 Arab news channel (Al-Jazeera) alone having a much larger audience and influence worldwide. Secondly news reporting...

@The SC @Amun @Philip the Arab @sami_1 I request fellow Arab users, the very few that remain after 99.9% of us left PDF, to ignore the anti-Arab and Arab-obsessed drivel in this thread and elsewhere from largely partially Arabized trolls. Arabs as a people and civilization are too great to...

@PakFactor now that tourism visas have been introduced in KSA and 100.000's of foreign tourists (travelers - many from the West) have been visiting, I hope that you and your family will one day visit KSA outside of the Hajj and Umrah (where frankly visitors don't get to know much about KSA or...

Saudi Arabia's historical sites are every bit as splendid as their better-known neighbours Tourists are already beginning to discover the archaeological treasures that form a rich heritage, just weeks after a new visit visa was introduced See more...

@Ansu fati The Khashoggi incident is one of the most strange incidents that I can think of. Firstly KSA has no history of killing critics abroad (there are literally 100's of prominent Saudi Arabian critics based in the West, Arab world and elsewhere - vast majority of them much more vocal than...

Did you have a nice trip? Makkah is currently one giant construction ground and far from the finished product. Expansion projects are going on in both Makkah and Madinah as documented in this thread. Any photos (if you don't mind) from the trip would be appreciated. Nothing personal, just...

Most Arabs that settled in Sudan did not settle 1400 years ago during the Islamic conquests but from the 10th century onwards. It was a gradual process that ended not long ago. The most recent migrants across the Red Sea from the Arabian Peninsula are the Rashaida who migrated to Sudan and...

You must be some elite troll. Yes, Sudan, an ENTIRE 44 million strong country, mostly the result of Arab and Nubian/Beja intermarriage etc. is not an example of successful and peaceful coexistence. Is this a joke? You should ask them as no military conquest took place. Locals willingly...

So far everything in the scientific community (in this regard at least) points to an "out of Africa" theory. The cradle of homo sapiens was thought, without much doubt, to have been East Africa/Ethiopia/Kenya/Tanzania etc. based on archaeological findings. Some years ago the oldest human...

Not related to China but nevertheless related to the Royal Saudi Arabian Strategic Missile Force - the fifth branch of the armed forces. The Saudi Arabian funded Hrim-2 short-range ballistic missile (includes development, research and technology transfer to KSA) will have a very advanced...

Thank you for the answers. However there is a few things here that I can't get my head around. Pre-1947 India (as in the modern-day Republic of India) was composed of literally 100's (if not 1000's) of independent states each with their own rulers. When the British were calling the shots...

I have sailed on the Nile river. Yes, I am well aware of the Nile River and it does not start in Ethiopia. Hence why I wrote that a political solution should be found, which I have no reason to doubt will be the case, HOWEVER if Egypt's livelihood will be threatened by illegal moves from...

Arabian/Semitic blood. The average Semitic-speaking highlander (Habesha) in Eritrea and Ethiopia are on average 1/3 Arabian/Semitic by blood, sometimes even more. This relationship dates back millennia. Mostly Arabian men establishing kingdoms in Horn of Africa and intermarrying with local...

Yes, maximum take-off weight. The maximal authorized/possible weight for an aircraft while taking-off. It was late yesterday but nevertheless thanks for the correction. I will correct it. Actually there is no information about the payload given on those tweets and a payload of 1100 kg is...
