Explosions have been reported in central Baghdad this morning. Further details are pending. #Baghdad #Explosions
I think it's worth looking into, if #USA ground #troops would operate from #pakistan to "invade" #iran as part of efforts to open #StraitOfHormuz. #usa military would operate close to #gwadar port which would conveniently disrupt the #pakistan #china economic corridor (reduce #oil transit to #china from 12k km by sea, to 3k km by land). this would be similar to #british #empire occupation of #basra in #iraq to cut #Berlin #Baghdad #rail, which eventually triggered WW1

"In #TikTok videos viewed tens of thousands of times, 31-year-old #DanSheena dons a blond wig and acts out skits of a bickering #Iraqi couple in a #language that is nearly extinct: #Judeo-#Arabic.

#Sheena began posting videos on TikTok in 2023, speaking the endangered language, which today is rarely spoken by anyone under the age of 60, following the mass exodus of #Jews from #Arab countries due to discrimination and religious persecution.

Raised by two parents from #Baghdad, Sheena grew up in #Israel and spoke the language at home. That’s a rarity among second- and third-generation Iraqi Jews, whose families often stopped passing it down in an effort to assimilate.

From a young age, Sheena, who still lives in Israel, knew he wanted to become an Arabic teacher. After years of teaching conversational Arabic in the public school system, he became determined to preserve the dialect he grew up with.

When Sheena told his family that he wanted to teach #JudeoArabic..."

@Rastal @duckz add to this, #StraitOfHormuz is a chock point by design. When #germany tried to build an alternative land based route to gulf oil (#berlin #baghdad #rail), to overcome #british grip on trade maritime routes, they went to ww1 war, divided the region to make sure such rail/route would never be built. Now this chock point turned to be a vulnerability when you actually don't control the water way
