Israel remains the biggest spoiler for Middle East peace
A truly MAGA America should abandon Israel at this point and let it fend for itself
Let them fight it out with Hezbollah and the Axis without US support
🇬🇧 Every British river. 🌊🇬🇧
Has a name older than English. Older than Rome. You still say it.
The Thames. The Romans wrote it as Tamesis. But the name they wrote was already old when they arrived.
A pre-Celtic name passed to the Celts, passed to Rome, passed to us. The name has changed only in the shape of the sound.
The Severn. The Welsh called her Sabrina. A river goddess in the Brittonic tongue. And the Severn still carries her name today.
🏞️ The Trent. The Celts called it Trisanton. A name meaning the trespasser. The river that bursts its banks. And it still bursts its banks.
The Avon. The word means river. The Britons called every river the Avon. The English kept the name.
The Tyne. A Brittonic name meaning the flowing one. The Dee. A name meaning the goddess, the holy one. The Britons named her sacred and the English left her sacred.
The Anglo-Saxons came. They renamed villages. They renamed hills. They renamed almost everything they could. But they did not rename the rivers.
The rivers were too holy. The names were too rooted.
And so the Brittonic words stayed in English mouths.
The Britons did not vanish. Their words did not vanish. Their descendants became the British. And the British still name the river the same way. Every time.
🇬🇧 British people speak a language older than English. Every day. Without noticing. The Britons named the water. The British still call it the same.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
The river names are not relics.
The villages changed names. The rivers kept theirs.

The Halre Ritual of the Kasnazani Kurdish Dervishes.
This ritual, performed by Kurdish dervishes belonging to the Kasnazani branch of the Qadiriyya order, is known as "Jahri (vocal) Dhikr" or "Halre." The Kurdish dervishes stand shoulder to shoulder to form a large circle and, to the rhythm of the def, rhythmically nod their heads up and down. While these movements may appear to be a hypnotic dance from the outside, they actually help the dervishes forget the world and enter a deep state of trance (wajd). This dhikr, characterized by the Kasnazani dervishes’ flowing long hair and its fusion with a high-energy rhythm, is one of the region’s most powerful mystical and cultural rituals.
