    My basic knowledge (by no means an expert) suspected the closeness of people of Kerala and Tamils just due to geography alone. If I am not wrong, Tamil Nadu is next door. May I ask, out of pure interest, what is the difference (if there are any other than the obvious one in the form of a...

    @Nilgiri I don't hope that I will be called "anti-Pakistani" for posting this video ( :lol: ) Arabian cuisine and South Asian, share many similar spices too, many originating from our brothers and sisters in South East Asia @Indos Also speaking about South East Asia, the reason why...

    Arabic Coffee shop

    We are on hostile waters but every historically knowledgeable person is well aware of ancient ties between the Arab world and South Asia (dating back several millennia) that manifested itself with ties to the IVC and ancient trade ties. Arabian Sea/Indian Ocean gives it away. Certain...

    Arabic Coffee shop

    It was a very funny comment because the difference between Arabic coffee and Turkish coffee is hardly present because Turkish coffee is a variant of Arabic coffee. As for Arabic coffee, you are clearly not aware of this but there are 10's (if not 100's) of variants of Arabic coffee today...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    This is mostly the work of parents/family and their expectations/wishes/pressure to see their sons and daughters turning into the desired and preferred professions (engineers, lawyers, doctors, in general a wish for well-educated off-spring and high-paying jobs) and because such manual jobs are...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    No sane Arab or person anywhere is "looking down" on a honest job that person x or y is doing, the "genius" (Rusty) just has a hard time understanding why the average Qatari (less than 350.000 people) does not want to work/has no need for it as a toilet cleaner or carpenter when he has no need...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    You are the one that is writing drivel and I did not see any "personal insults". I have been here long enough and had previous exchanges with you to know your usual ignorant drivel and idiotic one-liners about the GCC. All it takes is to take a look at your user history. It must be some kind of...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    Sense is not going to work with this guy, I am afraid. I am speaking from personal experience. No matter what you write or say, he will stick to his nonsense (unsubstantiated) no matter how absurd it is.

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    I could care less about what some anonymous anti-Arab on a Pakistani forum is writing of baseless unsubstantiated drivel, I just don't like witnessing nonsense and people talking about topics that they have no clue about acting like "they know it all". See my post 61 and make that nonsense...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    You do realize that your post is completely worthless? You have provided zero empirical evidence for your laughable claims. No statistics of any kind collaborate the nonsense of yours. If I recall you lived in Qatar ages ago, a tiny country with less than 350.000 locals ( :lol: ). That entity...

    Your statement makes no sense, lol and is a oxymoron. Turkish coffee derives from Arabic coffee and is basically a copy of Arabic coffee rebranded under a new name but without the cardamom flavor and variety of Arabic coffee. Turks were exposed to coffee thanks to the Arabs after all. The same...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    As I already wrote in this thread, KSA has 2 sovereign wealth funds worth an estimated 1 trillion USD. KSA has investments and assets abroad worth trillions of USD. The Saudi Arabian non-oil economy has been booming in recent years and had impressive growth rates. KSA is currently undergoing...

    At least 287 people killed in inter-communal clashes in South Sudan over the weekend

    I think that you are confusing "Barabari" with Berbers or Amazighs as they prefer to call themselves, brother. Berbers are a closely related people to Arabs and they inhabit the Maghreb, mainly Morocco and Algeria. Most Maghrebis today are a mixture of Arabs and Berbers hence the notion of...

    ‘The end of an era’: oil price collapse may force Saudis to rein in arms spending

    The trolls in this thread are using a global financial crisis (where KSA is poised to withstand the storm better than 90% + of all the world's countries) as an excuse to showcase their inferiority complexes and hatred towards Arabs as a collective. Based on a nonsense article containing a few...
