I enjoyed watching this insightful recording. Thank you, Dr. Brahimi, for organising and hosting this powerful discussion. The distinction that Dr. Alaoui made between objectivity and neutrality was crucial-especially when addressing the atrocities in Gaza. Avoiding controversy due to the emotional weight only obscures the injustice. Dr. Alaoui’s insights into the ideological cleavages in Israel, the strategic errors of Palestinian leadership, and the complexities of Hamas as both an idea and a governing body were thought-provoking. The notion that Netanyahu might broaden the conflict to involve the US and Iran, potentially influencing upcoming US elections, was particularly eye-opening. With gratitude!

Great presentation and amazing speaker.

What a rich lecture, Dr. Alaoui provided a comprehensive take on the complex geopolitical reality of the region, in light of the biggest unjust and inhumane treatment of the brave Palestinian people. I appreciated the pinpointed analysis of the major regional players, highlighting their individual special situations and limitations for that matter. Dr. Alaoui remains a rare source of independent geopolitical analysis and a voice of reason that does not shy away from unpopular public opinions. Thank you Professor Brahimi for allowing us this priceless opportunity to pick his brain.

This gentleman does not shy away from expressing his beliefs even if unpopular. He remains humble and within the logic, of analyzing political events based on historical facts , regional influences, and macro geopolitical factors. One never hears him engage into the fiery of populism or polarizations. A true independent thinker with a rich background and education.

Some times they feel so seek to be photographed all the day without sold any things that's all -Before to buy any things you have to know that : the meeting of the good deals about good prices is a national sport in the souks and markets in Morocco look so you should negotiate every price. so try to make always a good deal in the souks and don't be shy becaus it's normal for expl for a bag of 20 dollars give him 10 dollars yes give always the half price after do seems like you get out from his shop and wait for his reaction. it's normal to demand more for tourist becaus they earn just 1 dollars or 2 dollars for each artisanal product with the national (poor) people likeSandals, Babouch. Not like in france, french people give value for every product. they can sell you any things with a high price in a nice package. so that's why moroccan sellers they try to demand more for the tourists it's the only chance for them in the year to make some money and devlopped their business becaus too some shop has charges more than street sellers. any why even you paye double price this product still like a gift for you becaus there is a thousands of womans in the mountain try hard for a long hours to make this product for you and they always live in pauvrety. that's all the story about this famous subject about the price product in Marrakech souks. 4-Don't give more than 1 or 2 dollars to the accrobats, gnawa musiciens or to the master snakes of Jamaâ Lefna place in marrakech if you take a photo with them if you want give more do it becaus they have any assurance 5-Don't paye more than 7 or 10 dollars for Henné woman (local tatoe for hands) _Don't let any one to be your guide they say it's for free, but at the end it's not specialy guys with bad teeths lol ;) if you are lost in the old Medina demand to the childs they gonna help you for free or demand to a respectful person 6-Restaurant in morocco charge mineral watter and and some times breathe too so don't touch mineral water if you want just drink just normal watter one litre bottle of mineral watter is expensive in moroccan restaurant. so bye it from the shop a 1dollars (1 litre). -Don't pay small taxi more than price in the machine counter. but you should pay double after 21 pm of the night -Some arabic origine people of morocco love win money because the arabic origine people is not like the berber origine people or like black people of south of morocco like (warzazette city for exemple).the people of the middle of morocco are a little rude more than the others part of land of morocco. -Don't care for curiosity of moroccan people the most of them look just to kidding with you (their culture) -Morocco is not Iceland or Denmark but Morocco is the most safest country in africa better than south of america and Usa and south of europe exept scandinavian countries. -no guns markets no kidnap no terrorism in morocco -Morocco is not a rich arab country like (Dubia) UAE or very devlopped like Italy so get ready for some surprise like trains late like train of Fez but the Tgv trains very soon open. 7-Move 4 hours befor your plane if you have to take a train becaus some times some come late 8-if your budget of travel is so limited don't spend much money for any things like stay in a luxury riyades and luxury restaurant -if you are a poor youtuber or a poor vloger don't blame prices in Morocco ;) go thailand first but if you want eat 1 dollars sandwish or 2 cup of harrira for one dollars and take 20 dollars room's hotel a night it's fine. you are in the right place to be happy :) 9-Do your selves a huge favor rent a car, driving in Morocco is not difficult. morocco has the most good high ways in africa The trains are good too but some times train arrive late but not evey time.
