      Can we just stop using word ‘dangerous’ for Middle East now? It’s started to become boring now. It’s very offensive as well. It’s western hypocrisy that has associated word ‘dangerous’ with Middle East for years now. This needs to stops

      unfortunately muslim's world Generally arab world and especially in Levant countries are gone intellectually highly in backwardness and In these regions any social reformation, renaissance ,enlightenment, & revival didn't happened , that's is the main reason of dictatorship , civil war , islamic terrorism &Anarchism ,
      gulf countries are very famous for labour slaveries and violent against house maids
      the main reason of Arab backwardness are lack of Democracy, lack of freedom of expression(even mosques imam speach are recording),lack of political ,social ,cultural and religious organizations ,lack of cultural /social activities like literature,arts ,festivals
      Lack of visionary leaders &
      Refusal of printing press at its starting time ,lack of modern Education and doesn't get properly islamic education
      the printing Daily newspaper,Weeklies,magazines,periodical are very very nominal which is important part social development
      lebanon ,libia ,iraq ,siria ,yemen palastine etc most of countries are completely wiped out or falling in complete anarchy or ulta poverty
      If the LTTE was running educational institutions and medical colleges in Srilaka ; Their society will be become highly developed society ;but unfortunately they runs militat group it leads compete failure of Tamil people and pull down Srilankan in financial crisis
      which same as Arab countries
      Arab countries should be follow the social development and growth of Kerala the most socially developed society not only in india but also in world (in kerala you can see amazing harmony among three major religion Hindu Islam & Christianity;in ,in Srilanka LTTE focused in militant setup intead of social cultural educational development of their society ; it leads civil war and complete wiping out of them while in Kerala all religious organizations focusing in Educational institutions ,
      the daily newspapers paper printing in Kerala around 50% of their population while it is in Egyp it is only 1%
      only one solution to irradicate the islamic terrorism and immorality to achieve the renaissance;open books libraries in each muslim villages and mosques promoting reading habits ;thus they can achieve modern civil values ,human rights,moral & ethical values ,democracy etc
      10 years Iran -Iraq war,Kuwait invasion,Gulf war,9/11 attack,Thousands of bomb blasts in Iraq,IS,AlQaida,Boko Haram ,,Taliban Hisbullha,Hamas,, ,Palastine ,Kurds & Hooties Yesdies Issues,Siriya/Libyan Civil wars,Countless suicide bomb,knife, Lorry ,gun attacks in Europe cities Nadia murad ,Jihadi john ,Muhammed Atta Saddam hussain Bashar al assad are showing their of lack of religious education ,humanity,morality,world views

While I was in Saudi in my childhood, thousands of Yemenis living everywhere around our house, and they were such friendly people. I love these Yemenis! Very sad to see what is happening to them. Loved to visit Yemen if I get a chance in my life. By the way, Arabic is just like my mother tongue.

    I would just like to clarify that the knife you had mentioned about a kid having it, is part of Yemeni clothing culture and is known for the men to have it around. It is called the jambiya and in that sense is actually a dagger. It’s very common in Yemen so it’s not a big deal to any of us especially because it’s usually in that belt that they wear around their waist and is never really taken out unless they’re dancing 😅

      unfortunately muslim's world Generally arab world and especially in Levant countries are gone intellectually highly in backwardness and In these regions any social reformation, renaissance ,enlightenment, & revival didn't happened , that's is the main reason of dictatorship , civil war , islamic terrorism &Anarchism ,
      All muslim countries should say to no any militant groups
      gulf countries are very famous for labour slaveries and violent against house maids
      the main reason of Arab backwardness are lack of Democracy, lack of freedom of expression(even mosques imam speach are recording),lack of political ,social ,cultural and religious organizations ,lack of cultural /social activities like literature,arts ,festivals
      Lack of visionary leaders &
      Refusal of printing press at its starting time ,lack of modern Education and doesn't get properly islamic education
      the printing Daily newspaper,Weeklies,magazines,periodical are very very nominal which is important part social development
      lebanon ,libia ,iraq ,siria ,yemen palastine etc most of countries are completely wiped out or falling in complete anarchy or ulta poverty
      If the LTTE was running educational institutions and medical colleges in Srilaka ; Their society will be become highly developed society ;but unfortunately they runs militat group it leads compete failure of Tamil people and pull down Srilankan in financial crisis
      which same as Arab countries
      Arab countries should be follow the social development and growth of Kerala the most socially developed society not only in india but also in world (in kerala you can see amazing harmony among three major religion Hindu Islam & Christianity;in ,in Srilanka LTTE focused in militant setup intead of social cultural educational development of their society ; it leads civil war and complete wiping out of them while in Kerala all religious organizations focusing in Educational institutions ,
      the daily newspapers paper printing in Kerala around 50% of their population while it is in Egyp it is only 1%
      only one solution to irradicate the islamic terrorism and immorality to achieve the renaissance;open books libraries in each muslim villages and mosques promoting reading habits ;thus they can achieve modern civil values ,human rights,moral & ethical values ,democracy etc
      10 years Iran -Iraq war,Kuwait invasion,Gulf war,9/11 attack,Thousands of bomb blasts in Iraq,IS,AlQaida,Boko Haram ,,Taliban Hisbullha,Hamas,, ,Palastine ,Kurds & Hooties Yesdies Issues,Siriya/Libyan Civil wars,Countless suicide bomb,knife, Lorry ,gun attacks in Europe cities Nadia murad ,Jihadi john ,Muhammed Atta Saddam hussain Bashar al assad are showing their of lack of religious education ,humanity,morality,world views

      unfortunately muslim's world Generally arab world and especially in Levant countries are gone intellectually highly in backwardness and In these regions any social reformation, renaissance ,enlightenment, & revival didn't happened , that's is the main reason of dictatorship , civil war , islamic terrorism &Anarchism ,
      All muslim countries should say to no any militant groups
      gulf countries are very famous for labour slaveries and violent against house maids
      the main reason of Arab backwardness are lack of Democracy, lack of freedom of expression(even mosques imam speach are recording),lack of political ,social ,cultural and religious organizations ,lack of cultural /social activities like literature,arts ,festivals
      Lack of visionary leaders &
      Refusal of printing press at its starting time ,lack of modern Education and doesn't get properly islamic education
      the printing Daily newspaper,Weeklies,magazines,periodical are very very nominal which is important part social development
      lebanon ,libia ,iraq ,siria ,yemen palastine etc most of countries are completely wiped out or falling in complete anarchy or ulta poverty
      If the LTTE was running educational institutions and medical colleges in Srilaka ; Their society will be become highly developed society ;but unfortunately they runs militat group it leads compete failure of Tamil people and pull down Srilankan in financial crisis
      which same as Arab countries
      Arab countries should be follow the social development and growth of Kerala the most socially developed society not only in india but also in world (in kerala you can see amazing harmony among three major religion Hindu Islam & Christianity;in ,in Srilanka LTTE focused in militant setup intead of social cultural educational development of their society ; it leads civil war and complete wiping out of them while in Kerala all religious organizations focusing in Educational institutions ,
      the daily newspapers paper printing in Kerala around 50% of their population while it is in Egyp it is only 1%
      only one solution to irradicate the islamic terrorism and immorality to achieve the renaissance;open books libraries in each muslim villages and mosques promoting reading habits ;thus they can achieve modern civil values ,human rights,moral & ethical values ,democracy etc
      10 years Iran -Iraq war,Kuwait invasion,Gulf war,9/11 attack,Thousands of bomb blasts in Iraq,IS,AlQaida,Boko Haram ,,Taliban Hisbullha,Hamas,, ,Palastine ,Kurds & Hooties Yesdies Issues,Siriya/Libyan Civil wars,Countless suicide bomb,knife, Lorry ,gun attacks in Europe cities Nadia murad ,Jihadi john ,Muhammed Atta Saddam hussain Bashar al assad are showing their of lack of religious education ,humanity,morality,world views

    I’m from South Yemen, but I was born and raised in NY. I always come to Yemen every 2-3 years and stay for 3 months.I’m actually in Yemen right now watching this. I love it here. Especially the city of Aden. It’s the closest thing you get to a modern city that welcomes everyone. If you do decide to come to Aden, recommend coming November through February. It’s very Cool those months, so the use of oil and electricity for air conditioning isn’t needed, meaning electricity and oil are always available. Plus people are just happier in the winter. Aden has so much hospitality, scenery, malls, parks and people from all over Yemen. Women here also work and many depend on themselves. Thank you for showing the world to Yemen, I hope stability and peace is in the near future for Yemen and it’s innocent people.

Yemen is an incredible country with an incredible culture, history and people and it’s a shame what’s happening there. It’s truly a unique country. It is the site to one of the oldest civilizations in the world, I believe there is only a handful of countries that can compare. I pray God saves it from what’s happening there and returns it to a better state than where it was in before.
