The Arab world is the cradle of civilization. Home to the most ancient and influential ancient civilizations, cities and historical monuments in the world. Home to almost 100 World UNESCO Heritage Sites etc. For millennia our part of the world was the most wealthy alongside China and India. There is no need to "boost" about anything. It comes naturally with the territory, I am afraid.
Ever heard about the Rashidun, Umayyad and Abbasid caliphates and empires that together lasted for almost 1 millennium? Those 3 empires are 3 of the 11 largest empires in history. No other people in the top 15 have created that many empires and of this size. All 3 bigger than those you mentioned, expect for the Mongol (extremely short-lived) and British Empire which is a somewhat modern empire.
Let alone the numerous Arab kingdoms, sultanates, emirates, imamates, sheikdoms etc. on 3 continents from Spain and Portugal in the West to the gates of China in the east to the Swahili coastline (itself an word of Arabic origin) in the South.
Let's not even talk about the legacy of Arabs religiously, culturally, linguistically, in terms of architecture and artifacts etc. Very few people can compete in this regard which is widely acknowledged.
The Mongol Empire was an incredibly short-lived empire and they met their end in the Arab world and were eventually defeated. They left nothing of worth. Destruction purely and nothing else.
Arabs in Spain alone left 10 World UNESCO Heritage Sites. I doubt that your beloved Mongols ever built 5 anywhere that they had a presence. In their entire recorded history from when they first appeared to this very day.
I hope you realize that the Roman Empire was ruled by numerous Arab and various Emperors of Semitic origin (ancestors of modern-day Arabs) from today's Arab world. Half of the territory was also located in today's Arab world.

All of the above are purely historical realties that certain people and individuals are butthurt about but I could personally not care less.
Instead of trying to counter my initial post that you quoted, which is purely based on historical facts and nothing more, you demonstrated your enormous ignorance and butthurt. I expected more.
To tell you honestly I think it is hilarious to see people belonging to ethnicities that cannot even touch our knees, barking here. If historical facts are "superiority" then so be it. Every other people here take pride in their achievements but whenever Arabs do it people are screaming and crying. I wonder why that is? I have a few theories but let us leave it at that.
Now tell me about your peoples achievements and empires if they even had any? Whatever ethnicity you belong to I can already judge based on your nationality that you cannot compare in any shape or form. That's the brutal truth.
Also I don't believe in superiority or look down on any people, unlike you (it appears to be the case at least) nor am I even a full-blooded Arab to begin with.
I am not interested in a troll feast that has nothing to do with the topic at hand nor can anyone here counter all the historical and factual facts in this very post so save your eventual reply.

Anyway the UAE denied this report as expected. However regardless of this report or not there is little more to win or gain for any party in Yemen outside of consolidating what each party already has. So due to that I expect all parties that are engaged in Yemen to slow down their engagement. As has already been the case for quite some months. Moreover I would not be surprised if the talks in Kuwait will eventually succeed.

Well, here this is essential
@Arabian Stallion :
“Anyway from KSA's viewpoint all the strategic areas of Yemen have been conquered. Whether vital ports, the areas that contain almost all of Yemen's oil and gas or the economic heart of Yemen (Aden). As far as I am concerned, Houthi's are not a military threat for KSA and will likely never be and the part of Yemen (20% of Yemen's territory) that they and Saleh control is neither rich in anything but heavily populated and prone to infighting.”
Everything else is just
Game Over !!!
