โง Mimodactylus โง
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...

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

No. No closer than we were in 2002.

#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 nationโ

But the world remains off track and could be headed for around 2.5ยฐC of warming, the UN has said.
The report notes that for โeach degree of global warming, the corresponding increase in regional temperatures is significantly more pronounced for the #ArabianPeninsula, which has already warmed at a rate 50 per cent higher than other landmasses in the Northern Hemisphereโ
Under extreme scenarios the #MiddleEast could experience warming of more than 5ยฐC, scientists believe

Ancient humans may have paused in Arabia for 30,000 years on their way out of Africa
Our work suggests there may have been a previously unknown phase of humanityโs great migration: an โArabian standstillโ of up to 30,000 years in which humans settled in and around the Arabian Peninsula. These humans slowly adapted to life in the regionโs colder climate before venturing to Eurasia and beyond.
