Hello based department? Pinker is a modern day Pangloss. Sucide and opiod uses could increase but he would still proclaim that the world has gotten better becuase "muh GDP".

So true my brothers. Saudi Barbarians and their slaves can call us Arab but the Phoenician blood of our ancestors run through our veins.

Proud and strong Phoenicians like Taleb have brought so much awareness to this "Arab" lie the tongues of our enemy spread. We have broken the shackles of Arabic culture and will continue to free others. The world will know we are NOT Arabs!

What are you two retards talking about. I live in a lebanese dominant town, they're the most proud arabs i've ever seen. Arabic does not exist in lebanon? That's just a blatant lie. Lebanon, syria, palestine, and jordan are Sham. They were one ARABIC nation, and now they've spit.

Are you lebanese who're ashamed of your identity? You can larp all you want, you're from Sham, and nothing will change that.

Oh, I come from a land, from a faraway place
Where the caravan camels roam
Where it's flat and immense
And the heat is intense
It's barbaric, but hey, it's home
When the wind's from the east and the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night
Arabian nights, like Arabian days
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
Arabian nights, 'neath Arabian moons
A fool off his guard
Could fall and fall hard
Out there on the dunes

Imbecile spreading Saudi propaganda. You live in a Lebanese dominant town so that gives you some sort of authority of Phoenician history and culture?

Arabs are NOT native to Lebanon, no one from Lebanon is Arab they are Phoenician. No one speaks Arabic in Lebanon, that is a common misconception spread by the Saudis shills like yourself. Hope the barbarians pay you well.

Once again, Taleb is not an Arab and neither are the proud people of Lebanon.
