Middle East is our job. Account shares recent news and analysis on the #MidEast, including those of our members.

With more sanity, adequacy and responsibility of the adults, there would be far fewer victims in #Gaza.

Notorious Arab mindlessness, recklessness, irresponsibility, depreciation of human life are also perfect killers, not only the Israeli missiles and bombs.

When you put yourself with your kids in the firing line, carelessly gawking at the falling bombs and explosions, and then you cry about the loss — you equally share the responsibility for this loss with the one who fired a missile.

When you care about your life, the lives of your children, you hide yourself & kids in shelters to protect yourself & those who dear to you.

This video negates all the groans about the significant number of victims in Gaza from the Israeli strikes.

Me and @Gmaxime96 will be moderating today a discussion “#Israel and #Palestine: on the wave of escalation” at 10:30 PM GMT 3 (Jerusalem time) on @clubhouse. Join us! https://t.co/alQDR8Xg55

The problem is that absolutely toothless, weak position of the Arab community, absolute lack of unity and influence on the developments lead to the very existence of Hamas and radicalisation of a certain part of the Palestinian people. Helplessness and despair breed monsters.

...struggling to get back what was once theirs or at least not to lose what is left of their house...

[Maria Dubovikova @politblogme]

You intrude in somebody’s house. You occupy first one room, then the next one, then you lock the owners in the closet and occupy the whole house, and start complaining that they are so cruel and pure terrorists as they are fighting back and attacking you…

[Maria Dubovikova @politblogme]

Apparently that’s the reason why #Clubhouse was blocked in #UAE.

[Maria Dubovikova @politblogme]

But that’s true that there were many extremists on the app who were calling people for toppling the governments, calling names people discussing human rights in the #MidEastern countries.

[Maria Dubovikova @politblogme]

But nobody can say what’s the real reason behind the blockage. Is it hatred spread or freedom speech spread? As people were discussing lots of sensitive things that are tabooed in the Middle Eastern societies.

[Maria Dubovikova @politblogme]

Between the two screenshots passed two days. People are sharing that there were lots of hatred spreading in the Arab rooms and people, insulting and threatening the participants of other rooms, lots of cases of religious intolerance.That there were lots rooms opened by extremists
