A sexually frustrated Arab Muslim in Iraq, my story will end with an explosion one way or the other.

Okay, a thread:

In the past months maybe years even I have noticed that Arab/Muslims biggest representation consists of three people mainly, L.Sarsour, I.Omar, and Rashida Tlaib. I have heard/read everything them and their likes have to say and I have one throught: frustration. I am frustrated with the fact that those are the people who are supposed to represent us in the USA. Someone who actually knows how it is here would know that the last thing they should do as add more fuel to the fire.

First of all, of course I had forgotten a word (did) AND made a grammer error.

Second of all, let me elaborate this tweet.

Rashid's antisemitism aside, this tweet, as simple as it seems, gets more problematic the deeper you dive into it. This will be boring btw. So, "holiest" isn't a thing. It's a silly concept to have days that are "holier" than others. Especially when al-Adha has a similar holiday to it (al-Fitr). I'd get kicked out of the mosque if I remarked that al-Adha is holier than al-Fitr for example.

I don't get offended but I have to say that it definitely irks me whenever I see westerners use us in a throwaway political line like "He is just like Saddam" or "They are turning the country into Iraq". It is just that they don't understand what it is like. You may know the concept of Saddam's mass graves and how around 300,000 people were buried in it. But you don't understand losing family, relatives and friends.. You will never understand a mother taken away from her child to return years later to find him dead and physically dry

I just want to share this little threat about underground beggars society in Iraq. It is disturbing in its details. So near shrines in Iraq -which there are many- there a lot of beggars, mainly women, holding their children having hydrocephalus. They sit and ask people for money. The fascinating part is there are people supplying those children for a set fee.
