[@K12LearningCoach]

You helped me for my assignment :) Thanks!

[@3ilmLilkul]

Sal talking about al-7ejaaz, and the origin of my country, makes me happy, (note to self: your too much of a khan fan)

[@FredLami1]

When I listen to this, I can only think about how foreshadows everything that as transpired in Middle-East today and also, if Hussein was sincere, how this region would've been much more peaceful and stable if not ruined the greed of my own people...

[@MikeFedyk]

"I guess you could say became a hot point in international affairs." -- Never was a larger understatement uttered before.

[@naomikislasi]

Khan Academy is an educational assets online. Good Job.

[@StijnHmrAwesome]

These are awesome, thanks Khan

[@dox1842]

what kind of governments did modern (pre WWI)mesopotamia and arabia have? I was shocked to learn that these countries existed up until world war I

[@bunney3272]

They were part of the Ottoman Empire before WWI.

[@archaedemos]

great video!

[@JawzPause]

[@syedhashmi5004]

Totally agree with you brother, If only we Muslims did not go for this worldly life..

[@zululu2222]

[@samiullahkhan2391]

No body, i repeat, no body talks about this aspect of Wwi

[@br1an419]

Just watched the Mustafa vid.

[@Real4Bas]

From the golden age of Islam to this...

[@lorraineclawless469]

[@Genghiskaran]

The Demon-Haunted World by carl sagan. this is a good book.

[@Hayouva]

Saudi ♡

[@laurengrunzke3144]

Sal it is so sad you were arborist to meet my math teacher a few days ago and missed it cause of something

[@Staint12]

right.. i don't really care so..

[@Staint12]

Right... Shias..

[@joliettraveler]

You should read Gertrude Bell Queen of the Desert for more insight into this, and how the lands were cut up.

[@messrsandersonco5985]

She wasn't involved in negotiations, nor was she ever consulted despite having far more insight into the region than either Mark Sykes or TE Lawrence. She was after all, a female in a man's world, and a spy. While we often quote the P-S Agreement and the Balfour Declaration as the beginning of everyone's woes, it is unlikely that the Arabs would ever have reunited without a Western alliance involved because their societies are tribal and aren't culturally equipped that way.

[@alexsanchez-vk4ll]

actually from the fall of the roman empire to this because since the fall of the roman empire Arabia rebellions rose, not the golden age there never was a golden age

[@forlornreaper6389]

I wonder what our ancestors did wrong..

[@MsAmoooool]

i would like to add that saudis dynasty ruled hijaz regions in their first and second states (correctly we’re in the third state) before the ottomans made Hassan bin Ali the sherif of mecca, u made it look like saudi came out of nowhere and “conquered Hijaz” which is not true at all, Hasan bun Ali only ruled for 8 years but saudis ruled for much longer in their previous states, not to mention the fact this region is usually ruled by the arab tribes in arabia (As in the Umayyad and Abassid states and Saudi Arabia), and not by the ottomans who conquers it and put on of their puppets from levant as a sherif for only 8 years who later decided to revolt, but saudis were fighting there to get their land back for the THIRD time, pls be accurate giving ur information i expected better.

[@Genghiskaran]

that's why i don't believe in the history taught it school. you have to go to libraries in your community or districts and the internet. etc,,. its like a game of finding out the truth

[@Th3Emp3r0r]

Hi.

[@TheBigboy9988]

Cause i am :-)

[@laurengrunzke3144]

I mean about

[@AMAO13]

sad story

[@FredLami1]

I think nuclear weapons should be a responsibility not a right... Nobody should have the right to have the capabilities to wipe out the world, not even the U.S., China or Russia.

[@Am00na]

Let me point out the obvious. Don’t let prejudice and ignorance get the best of you, research the actual history behind Islam before talking gibberish.

[@PoojaYadav-uf8zs]

sir can you explain the difference between Arabs and ottomans? I thought both were of same religion so essentially same?

[@faheemkhalid4359]

they are different in races but same in religion. arabs are the race of the people in middle east and islam as a religion. while ottoman is a islam empire which include several countries from istanbul to middle east. before the ww1, arabs are in the ottoman empire. anybody feel free to correct me if im wrong.

[@missdoojy]

Faheem Khalid Turkey and Istanbul are considered part of the Middle east as well. Being Arab is about race, language, culture all Middle eastern countries are Arab except for Turkey and Iran. Ottomans are Turks they are different religion, language and culture, they ruled from Istanbul and included Arabian land to their empire.

[@SoeChan-xv8pm]

​@@missdoojy And ısrael

[@manssaudi691]

i Arabia

[@Zaroastrian]

Rast migi baradar :D

[@faheemkhalid4359]

i wonder why the british and france really want to mess up with middle east country at the first place ? why they want to help middle east country independence from ottoman empire ? what are the benefits to them ? or are they just didnt want islamic country to be whole ?

[@AymanDeuxFois]

Really!! I tell you what i think, if Islam didn't liberate your land from the oppression of that age .. you would be just a slave, probably until today. peace and love :)

[@asrinyoutube]

In fact Islam is the right religion but sent to wrong people.

[@meeharbin4205]

Afranicus it was sent perfectly, to best people that could receive it, with the best of creation living among them and the most perfect time for it to be sent. What are you talking about?

[@VAPOURIZE100]

soo many complicated things!! but very well explained! :) ugh when was it that Middle east was at peace I think there are more wars between the monotheistic religions than the non-monotheistic ones >.> for God's sake there's only one God! and no amount of land, people or anything matter but your internal WILL and BELIEF

[@Hayouva]

@theangrypersian talk for yourself.

[@طريقخريص]

🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🕋⚔️😘

[@TheBigboy9988]

Hey salman khan im curios r u a muslim???

[@oberonave]

Important to remember: There was never a culture or a country called Palestine. Arafat was born in Cairo Eygpt. There is only one Jewish state - but there are many Arab/Islamic states; Israel is a democracy and has Muslim/Arabs in their Knesset; There are no churches or synagogues in Arabia; Jews may not touch Arab soil,.....etc, etc,....GOD BLESS ISRAEL

[@s2Yid]

It was palastine and it's now palastine and it will be palastine

[@mohammedraheef1415]

GOD BLESS HASBARA PROPAGANDA!!

[@SandNigah]

Bit less sketchy than a country based on 4000 year old scripture, claiming ownership...

[@johnthomson6507]

I would argue for all the awfulness of Syria the French did a better job than the British in iraq

[@AymanDeuxFois]

I don't think you have a clear idea about what's going in the world, anyway it's a dead end for the argument since you have reviled your true nature. we will liberate you once again from the hatred that has been planted inside you, prepare to cover, storm is coming. My sincere apologizes to channel owner. peace and love :)

[@khalil-tb]

im so chilled buddy .. He doesnt exist ? Please .. prove it and Enlight with your wisdom .. Noob

[@Th3Emp3r0r]

Not really, it wasn't always Islamic. You see, time existed even before Islam came to be! I know this is too shocking for you to believe, but trust me on this one! By the way, take a look at your so-called Islamic countries that exist today, then back to secular countries, then back to Islamic countries. Don't you see a pattern? Secularism works; theocracy sucks. And LOL, "my" democracy? I'm middle eastern, just like you.

[@khalil-tb]

like always Dude , We Reply to ur questions but you can never reply us back ... i think you and @theangrypersian have another definition for terrorism .. peace dude , peace

[@TheBacmoh]

i'm muslim, and i'm peaceful...what the fuck is wrong with people...always generalizing

[@TheFay7]

There was / is Plalestine and there is no Israel :) . Thanks for the vid
