Basically iran is to MeNa the wine aunt no one likes but is still in the family because they've been around for too long

Saudi arabia is that one elder who thinks because he is older he should be treated with the uttermost respect

Israel is the distant relative everyone hate who doesnt get invited to family fest (he doesnt care anyway he's friend with the cool guys)

Morocco is the weird cousin no one understands

Palestine is the kid everyone wants to protect

Iraq is the cool cousin who was the child prodigy but some bad decisions and it went downhill

Oman is ...here

Turkey is the neighboor and family friend considered as part of the family because he's always here

Egypt is the popular one who seems to know the whole city and likes to think he represent the whole family (he probably does anyway)

this honestly started as keffiyeh practice bc i was getting frustrated w not understanding how the folds affect the pattern

[letttalias]

apropos to that last post by @peonycats i think it’s absolutely essential to know that jordan and iraq’s six month course in how not to be married was and will always still be more functional than anything that’s happened in syria’s love life ever

Wow. I can remember seeing videos and hearing about all the shit that the (Dixie) Chicks endured for speaking out against George W. Bush’s illegal war against Iraq in 2003, but I never knew that Kris Kristofferson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson did basically the same thing against George HW. Bush in 1991, except apparently there wasn’t an equal amount of career ending blowback for them. I wonder why?

I mean, ofc all of them were 💯 correct in their public denouncements of Bush Sr. and Bush Jr., but it smacks of the whole Justin Timberlake / Janet Jackson double standards debacle.

The thought that crosses my mind in a regularly unhinged way is that if Thurgood Marshall didn’t retire in 1991 under George HW Bush and instead sat on the Supreme Court until he died 4 days into Bill Clinton’s presidency that Clarence “alleged” sexual predator Thomas never would have been on the court and therefore the recall in Florida would have proceeded proving Al Gore won the 2000 election and we never would have invaded Iraq and 9/11 may never have happened and that alternate reality has to exist right?

*This is no way absolves Sandra Day O’Connor and Anthony Kennedy who are STILL ALIVE but will be arriving at the gates of hell one day for all of this

The fall

At the beggining of the 16th century, greece and iraq remember the glory and the fall of past empires, including their own

Greece was leaning on a desk of the sublime porte's library, thoughtful, eyes full of nostalgia, glued to the pages of his book. His hand, still skinned from the fall of constantinople, slightly touched the letters of the work

-《what are you reading ?》

He turned his gaze toward the owner of the voice. At a few feets from him was standing is then-rival: Iraq

The man in front of him smiled at him, he was now sitting on a chair just next to him. The greek looked at him and noted his outfit. Instead of his blacks and laborious clothes he used to wore, he was now in a simple white thobe. Greece looked at the hand of his mate, still burned from the sack of baghdad. Never he could have imagined sharing a house with the one who gave him so much trouble.

He was taken out of his thought when Iraq tooks the book

-《So...it's on the fall of the western roman empire !》 said the iraqi with a playful tone

-《mh...i was diving into the details of his death》 whispered the greek.

-《Arabia and Ethiopia once told me he was an eccentric with violence problem》 spok iraq on the same playful tone.

-《I don't know. I am born because he was dying. I neither knew the glory of the republic or the prosperity of the empire》 spoke Greece

-《he accomplished a lot of great deeds, his territory and influence on us made him a sort if father for us and an ideal to reach》 he kept going on

-《despite that, it didn't prevent him to die in a chaotic empire falling apart under his own weight》 he finished

-《mmmh...you know ? My father used to say that when the gods created life they appointed death as an inevitable fate for everyone.》 Retorted his interlocutor

-《Babylon ?》 Asked the other man

-《Yeah. He was a bit similar to rome when i think about it, he was a great empire, cradle of multiple foundations of civilization, the personification of hubris and wealth, a source of admiration for some, of disgust and terror for other.》 He said not without a bit of admiration in his voice.

-《All that so he would fall in one of the most humiliating way by a kid straight from the mountains.》 He spoke with a mix of amusement and sadness in his voice.

The skinned hand met the burned one while the gaze of the european fixed the arab's one, before the latter say to him with a now sad laugh

-《In some centuries, do you think books will be written on us ?》

Greece could only gave him a slight and melancolic smile.
