Saudi Warplanes Destroy 2,500 Year Old Heritage Site In Yemen
When ISIS militants took control of the ancient Syrian city of Palmyra last month, observers feared the world was set to lose a treasure of antiquity. The city, which houses ruins that date back thousands of years, is a UNESCO world heritage site. Historians say its destruction would represent a tragic defeat in the effort to preserve the cultural heritage not just of the Middle East, but of modern civilization itself.
(Palmyra)
On Friday, the proxy wars that, thanks in large part to US foreign policy, now plague the Middle East, took their toll on another UNESCO heritage site when Saudi warplanes decimated Old City, a 2,500 year-old collection of homes, towers, gardens, mosques, and public baths in the Yemeni capital of Sana’a.
NY Times has more:
A protected 2,500-year-old cultural heritage site in Yemen’s capital, Sana, was obliterated in an explosion early Friday, and witnesses and news reports said the cause was a missile or bomb from a Saudi warplane. The Saudi military denied responsibility.
The top antiquities-safeguarding official at the United Nations angrily condemned the destruction of ancient multistory homes, towers and gardens, which also killed an unspecified number of residents in Al Qasimi, a neighborhood in Sana’s Old City area.
“I am profoundly distressed by the loss of human lives as well as the damage inflicted on one of the world’s oldest jewels of Islamic urban landscape,” said the official, Irina Bokova, the director general of Unesco, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization...
“This heritage bears the soul of the Yemeni people; it is a symbol of a millennial history of knowledge, and it belongs to all humankind,” Ms. Bokova said.

The portable artefacts will end up in the private collections of oligarchs, after changing hands for substantial amounts of money.
JR,
Arab semites are heavily Neanderthalic; The racial traits are there to observe is one looks. Jewish Khazars AND Sephardics have this genome from two different immigration periods. In other words the Semites are a problem for civilized man, as their gene expression is one of low trust and violence.
Caucasians are lower fraction Neanderthalic with CroMagnon mixture. Neanderthals had no cave art, and they were heavily numerical; they like to count things. Today, a dividing line can be roughly drawn to the East of Poland, and the right of that line includes many great mathematicians and chess players. But, it comes at a cost, with low trust and violence. Their religions are all abstract God in the sky, and they suppress women. Idols are to be destroyed because they are incapable of making art, and a conquered people must not have idols. A balanced religion has both women as earth goddess fertility and renewal, and the man as protector.

Are there populations living today that, unlike most whites, try to preserve themselves? Yes, there are. In fact, every other population on the planet believes in its own goodness and tries to preserve itself, but the population that has done so most effectively is, perhaps surprisingly, the European Jews. They strongly discourage marriage to non-Jews, nor do they proselytize to bring non-Jews into their genetic fold. They have strong in-group amity and out-group enmity, a dual morality that is supported and justified by their religious rules, the Talmud, and they support policies for white countries (multiculturalism, open immigration, miscegenation civil rights) that weaken and divide their out-group, the non-Jews. They encourage their daughters to marry the most intelligent Jews and have many children, thereby raising their average IQ to the highest of any population. They have many cultural practices that increase group coherence, including their own religion, language, holidays, rituals, and even humor. They have their own clubs and organizations, even one for keeping Jewish criminals out of jail (the “Alternative Sentencing Proposals” of the ALEPH Institute). Were whites to emulate the European Jews, they would be unstoppable.
Neuroses, according to Karen Horney, (1945) are caused by unconscious conflicts. By cowering before the Equality Police, whites have internalized a conflict between their innate, now-subconscious ethnocentrism and their conscious thinking processes, which warn them that any expression of their ethnocentrism is dangerous. Thus, they act according to their ethnocentrism by avoiding other races, then use their conscious thinking to rationalize their choices, i.e., they are hypocrites. This is, of course, unhealthy, as a person who has internal conflicts cannot function as well as a person who is of one mind.
My addition. It is racial, and then it is religion, especially Talmud, Zohar, and Kabala. I’ve traced the Haibaru back to ancient times, as they were roaming tribes of donkey caravans, usually of outcasts and misfits. This created additional evolutionary pressure to enhance psychopathic genomes (the bad was reinforced). Meanwhile consensual civilization caused a different evolutionary path amongst Caucasians and Asians.
The surpressed and then becoming subconscious ethnocentrism is an interesting idea, that could explain a whole lot of things.
If it is true that the Jews have the world’s highest IQs as they claim in their self promotions, would that justify them having to lead despotic tyranny over the rest of the world?
And is IQ the reason that in Europe and Russia alone they have been banished 47+ different times within the last 1,000 years?
In that there’s some truth in the world’s prejudice, and in that that prejudice claims that Jews cheat, could it be that they cheated on their IQ tests? Just sayin’.
Don't you know, JR, that Jews landed on Earth about 10,000 years ago.
They came from the planet Rye in the Pastrami system.
They had a simple, harmless task. To harvest as many caraway seeds and send them back to Rye to make the Ryelings' meals more palatable.
Over the years, their detractors have spread hideous rumors about them.
Some of which you will read here at zh.
Cute, but the hatred of outsiders, the divine right of violence, the dual systems of ethics for Jew and non-Jew was not written by anti-Semites, it was written centuries before Christ. By the remote and partial-genetic, but direct ideological forebears of todays religious Jews.
The ethos of the Torah [and Talmud, but in a more diluted and 'polemical' sense given its sheer size and sheer absurdity] is one of racism, materialism, violence and xenophobia. Now, it would be one thing if such writings were cast off as a regrettable embarrassment of pre-scientific priests and scribes jealous of the more advanced cultures all around them, but it is held to this day as sacred, as the 'word' of g0d.
That's not the fault of Muslims, or Christians, or "pagans," Bid - it is part and parcel of Jewish self-reverence and hatred of 'the other.'
I'm speaking of genuinely religious Jews - not the guy who works as a dentist and goes to temple when his grandma visits.
And were one capable of genuine honesty, the sheer number of critics of Jewish behavior, across widely disparate cultures, separated by centuries, one would begin to ask: "might it at least in some considerable part, have something to do with how Jews, qua collective, behave toward others?"
If so, one might rather quickly find the origin of this inimical ethos in Jewish religious texts.
Here's my thumbnail.
There is a god who exists in various forms for each and every religion.
Everything that everybody knows about god is wrong.
Some of this 'wrong' thought is faulty but harmless. A lot is nefarious.
In one of these religions god nominates the Jews as his "chosen people."
God neglects to tell them what they have been chosen to do.
The Israelis are among the most warlike people on the planet and possessed of nuclear weapons.
Perhaps ending the universal corruption with a global conflagration is what the Jews were chosen to bring about.
I think about the Jews as little as I can. Especially when they're not killing children playing on the beach.
I'll let others be Dr. Casaubon with "The Key to all Mythologies".
ps I prolly should have said 'creator' instead of 'god'
let the down votes begin
I can dig it, Bid.
curiously that applies, with more than a couple caveats, to the ashkenazi - the branch least related to the Auld Hebrews, and, per recent genetic studies, manifestly non-Semitic matrilineally.
In short, they got it from Europe.
There are likely more Chinese geniuses in the 50 miles around Shanghai than there are Jews. Koreans and Japanese, too, if you control for their wealth and access to the schooling wealth provides, likely have a higher average IQ. It will be tougher and tougher for the Jews to continue to be over-represented at the top schools, where they have boxed out more intelligent non-Jewish whites and Asians for decades.
"Boxing out" has also occurred in the banking and media - witness Hollywood.
you arabs make me laugh, you made yourself the suckiest hickest dimwits available. I wouldnt crucify kids, id just nuke you, thats caled education, son. Sorry you are useless.
Islam is hick, you fuck goats im in america fucking policewomen, yes im white, and im past nwa i literally fuck the police, yes just one guy. white fella, great shot, had endless grandparent stories at 24 years old, youre useless nothings, even if i get snuffed out. you will never reach this.
Im star wars, youre leonard part 6,
go home and sleep it off, pussy
Hezbollah Might Just Be Our Best Bet for Middle East Stabilityan academic proposition later supported by...
God bless America and the feudal ally, who fight together for the freedom.
If we're lucky, their opponents may strike back and take out Mecca.
I'm sure if we elect a lying senior citizen in a pantsuit this will be much better.
Other than the numerical zero, what does the West get from Arabia and Islam except touble and tribulation? We should have always left them alone, like the Black Run Ghettos of Amer-africa. See, they were peaceful and static living in their shite, but they got stirred up when they had to live in the shite we substituted, even though it was noxiously the same.
People prefer wallowing in their own poop to the poop provided by others. Trillions later, rivers of American blood and broken bodies, we have only made things worse.
Consider, in the 1950s, as an American tourist, you could have travelled to any Middle Beastern Country, walked the bazaars, seen all the ruins, and no one would have bothered you. Now look what we've done.
