Baghdad was a kurdish city. Bagdad in Kurdish means land of lords. Bags were lords and my family are Bags and many Kurds! If you search in Arabic there is no meaning for Bagdad and just says online city of peace which should be مدینە السلام(madina alsalam) so why don't they say madina alsalam? Because Bag dad are both Kurdish words again! Arabs, Pars/fars and Mongols/Turks stole our land, history and language. They stole everything from us Sumerians/Kurds for over a 1000 years with the help of some western countries also! Kerbela also was a kurdish city! Ker=donkey lol Kurds used donkeys to move goods around and one time the donkeys got sick and became problem so they named the place ker=donkey bela=problem. Ker is bela! Donkey is problem! Get it Kurds? Wake up please. Kerkuk anyone? Ker+kuk. There is a story behind every city name! The Arabs came up from Arabia and took our land! Also Pars/ Fars new race was made during the times Arabs moved here and Kurdish kingdoms hired these gypsy Arabs and called them Pars, pars/ parastin Fars/Persian are Kurdish words and mean protecter and protecting. Fars have no idea and they even say pars for bark. They have no idea that's where their name Pars came from! They love to say they are Aria but they don't know the real words are Ar+yan= pure being/pure flame in Kurdish. Everything about Fars/Pars is a lie! They believe Evesta belongs to pars but if you gave them the book they have no idea what the words are but Kurds can read it easily because Zertosht meaning Serdasht used to be a cities name and the people from ser dasht were called ser dashty! Their leader of course was called serdashty which became zartoshti in Parsi lol Everything Pars knows is a lie! Many Kurds were assimilated and thought they were pars/fars. Kurus is a Kurdish word and means the Boy and he was a kurdish king. But Pars have no idea what kuru even means in Frasi because again it's a Kurdish word we use everyday to say Boy! Turks are all originated from China! Look it up! I hear Turks say they are indiginous to these lands but if you look it up you'll see all Turks are originated from China! Kurds are descendents of Sumerians, the oldest civilization on Earth so does that mean Kurds are the indiginous people along with Greeks who I belive are very close relatives of Kurds. Even Armenians are from the Balkans! They killed almost 1 million kurds with the help of Russian army and took kurdish land! Assyrians are from Arabian pennensula and their language is proof to this calim, semetic languages are not originated from Masepotamia! Kurdish is new version of Sumerian and kurds are the only people who can read Sumerians tablets. Now talk to the ✋️ Here are some examples of North Kurdish language and Sumerian similarities! Both languages are the only ergative languages in middle east! Now Pars/Fars can steal our words but they can't steal our Grammer too because they don't have the brains for it lol Yes I became racist because I lived amongst Pars, Turkos and Arabs! 😂😂😂😅😅😅😅

Hey Doug, thanks so much for posting that video. I visited from the United States in late 2021. That definitely reminded me of my experience landing. Although in late 2021, because I was being picked up by Iraqi nationals who couldn’t come into the airport, we switched from one taxi to another taxi at a transfer station not far outside the airport. I think that time Iraqi nationals couldn’t come all the way to the airport. It would be really good to try to post a video for the departure experience, in late 2021, not exaggeration, think there was about a half dozen metal detectors one had to go through to get out of course bye local guides can come all the way to the airport either.

Qassem Soleimani, who died by the American plane. We in Iraq are very proud of this achievement. Very impressive. Well done, but there are Iranian militias and some of them encourage them.

Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis is an Iraqi man, a fighter against terrorism, and a martyr with all the love for him.... But we welcome all our guests and we are honored by your arrival...... But we disagree with the foreign policy of the United States of America

[@doug_barnard]

i disagree with much of it as well :)

[@Dr_Canopus]

@@doug_barnard My brother, can you give an example of something you do not agree with me on..... I know that the United States of America is the land of freedom and the best place to live.... but you as an American citizen do not know its foreign policies..... Statues and pictures of Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis And Qassem Soleimani, you will find them everywhere in Iraq....in Karbala, in Najaf, in Basra, and even in the universities of Iraq...even the day of their martyrdom is an official holiday in Iraq on the third day of the first month in every year

[@Dr_Canopus]

@@doug_barnard I'm sorry, I didn't understand your words.... I thought you were saying that you didn't agree with me 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@doug_barnard]

@@Dr_Canopus i'm very aware of america's foreign policy

[@doug_barnard]

and i don't necessarily think it's the best place to live. i don't even live there

I am delighted that you have great fun in my home country 😊
