Didn’t say you don’t have history, I said something else.
Yes you were colonized by diplomacy, and if that is not enough for you then you were colonized militarily in 1990-1991 by a western coalition.
Means the south of the Arabian plate is the closest to Africa, passing the South of the Arabian Peninsula to get further to todays Iraq and Syria requirs to cross the Arabian peninsula when coming from Africa according to how humans came to the world, that’s all it means, during that time people were killing and eating.
Wheres Ibrahim from ? let me play holy land person now.
Anyway, do you know about the desert between Iraq and Saudi, when I jump over the border to Saudi Arabia am I suddenly in holy land ? are you really believing this santa story ?
Al Qaeda which you support would behead you for that.
800.000 + are not small bases, but larger forces than most state armies, a size of world power militaries that is, nothing funny about that.
Arab monarchies allied with the US, UK, Jordanian king betrayed Arabs by warning Israel, more about them at the end of my previous post.
Ok, something new at least compared to the trolls.
I already said that we did not have a strong enough military and that Iraq had a way stronger military but at what cost? Do we need to discuss what Saddam did? Or how he spent all of the oil and gas money on his personal fiefdom and an extravagant military that could not save him anyway or win the war against Iran, prevent Israel from striking, prevent Turkey's meddling in Northern Iraq to fight the Kurdish militias or Syria's hostility or the American invasions two times over?
KSA was not prepared and the Americans being an ally and interested in the security of the region so they could continue the stability of the oil and gas sector reacted. Besides I don't think that Saddam Hussein could conquer all of KSA. There would be great resistance and the KSA military at that time might have been significantly weaker than Iraq's (nobody has denied this so not sure why you mention it) but they were not THAT bad. Could have resisted.
You are talking about ancient, ancient times. Where people hardly new how to make a fire. I am talking about fairly "recent times" - last 10.000 years. You do realize that most of the Arabian Peninsula just 10.000 years ago was covered in lush greenery and tropical forests just like you have remains of that in Southern Hijaz, the Southern regions of KSA, Yemen and Oman to this very day? Most tropical areas of all in the entire Middle East. Go search on Google and you will see. Where coffee, banana, tea etc. is growing.
The point is that Semitic history is very much tied to the Arabian Peninsula. That was all. Look at all those ancient statues of the various Semitic leaders from Babylonia to Yemen and see the similarities in look, facial structures, hair, nose etc. The one Saudi Arabian that died and was posted looks like one of the many statues of those Semitic rulers. Same hair, beard and most importantly nose. Take a look yourself. Not kidding. Just thought about it now when this discussion started since I was watching a documentary on Semitic history earlier tonight and they showed all those familiar statues with long curly hair and curly beards and those special "Semitic noses".
Where he is from? Nobody knows with certainty but according to Islam he lived in Hijaz thousands of years ago.
I have never said anything about any "holy land". You are not talking with a Zionist here! I just said that the territory of what is now KSA is a land where many Prophets have lived. As I said go study the 3 Abrahamic religions. Not my theories.
I already discussed that military part of your post. Yes, a big force. The Americans wanted to show the world that they were the undisputed world power in those days right after the Cold War had ended.
Yes, and the so-called Arab nationalists and socialists allied with the Soviets. Your point? Both are foreigners and both groups looked for world domination. Not sure how they differ other than the monarchies being 100 times more stable and prosperous even to this day. So maybe that was not such a bad alliance? What do you say?
Don't know about any betrayal and I am not the spokesman for any ruler, king or anybody here nor have I claimed them to be perfect even.
Besides @
BLACKEAGLE will now counter your claim. He knows more than I do since he is older and that is his country.

Lastly watch this veteran American archeologist that was part of an archeology team in Hijaz and listen to what she has to say about the regions ancient history and some of the things I already told about. Or what she tells about the Arabian Peninsula being largely non-excavated despite the scientist/historians/archeologists/genetics knowing the significance of the region and that it might solve some of the mysteries of the region. Professional on the field.
