this is a thread dedicated to the art, language, culture and architecture for MENAboos and natives alike. Come to funpost, chat, entertain each other. Today's theme is /comfy/ towns like this one in Maaloula, Syria.
today's question: what is the best desert in the mideast and north africa?
i meant desert, like baklava, but I guess you can post your favorite desert if you'd like.
I personally like baklava but I've never seen any like this, does anyone know where this kind comes from?

The middle east is not comfy, the sooner it turns to glass the better.

Duuuude, I just realised today that Islam is like just Arab Judaism. So Muslims are actually Jews, only they speak Arabic and ride camels instead of driving cars. Blew my mind, mane.
Josiah Cook
>not posting the comfiest town that flag looks cool, but it's a meme flag
Jace Robinson
in tangier there's a cave that looks like a backwards map of africa, it even has a hole for madagascar.
Jace Campbell

Jaxson Hall
Yemen has the best architecture
Beat me to it, needs more hashish

Some of the places described in this book seem pretty cozy
Old towns in the hills with weird names and esoteric histories going back 1000s of years, where everyone knows each other and the families are both huge and now extended all over the world
Carter Adams
I'm exploring my heterosexuality these days
How have you guys explored your homosexuality?
Mason Gonzalez
Yeah but if you actually go there it's mostly shit.
I like couscous with just butter
How do you guys flavour it?
I know algerians cous cous tastes weird
Christian Sanchez

Cameron Miller
>Yeah but if you actually go there it's mostly shit.
That's because you're used to busy loud big cities
It's just a comfy lil' cool town, apart from the bydlo m*roccan tourists that is
William White
Our couscous has: Squash Carrots Meat Onions Tomatoes Spices and additions: Spice Salt Black Pepper Cinammon It sure sounds disgusting but that's my mother's recipe and it's pretty fine.
Oliver Jenkins
Where is the famous Egyptian dutch girl with hedgehog that posts here?
Julian Russell
Have you been there? I guess you are the guy I think you are - after a horrible 10kph CTM ride via Marrakech and Kenifra (because those cunts dont want to burn petrol ffs) you go past the ghetto part of the town, stopping at the bus station. Just the main high street is nice. The rest is shit
Brayden Myers
No I just mean the salts/spices you have in the couscous
Im thinking about just using vegetable stock or something because although butter couscous is nice, it's boring.
Adrian Scott
Wtf! How can that shit be cool?! It hurts to look at
Jackson Nguyen
she's busy sucking cock
Aiden Reed
Because hur the blue med the green fertile lands the yellow desert and the red blood open chains for muh freedom fight
I live like 20 minutes away from Ifran I'm prolly biased because I always take the glorious mountain route with fossil displays and cherry farms on the sides of the roads
Daniel Ortiz
That's not a woman, that's a fucking crossdressing faggot
Parker Adams
That was a transsexual who was being a faggot during ramadan. Nice, towards fes?
Ben Mellah - Kenifra - Ifrane is shit, but between Fes and Ifraine is nice in parts.
That white lady is so fucking annoying in the video I wish they stabbed her too
Cameron Evans
where the maghrepis at? pic related, me
Logan Taylor
Wadi are breddy based
pic related is Wadi Rum in Jordan. Movies that were filmed there include: Rogue One, The Martian, Prometheus, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Lawrence of Arabia (duh)
Baklava is originally of Balkan origin not turkshit or mena shit so probably from there.
Jaxon Long
Hurr durrr
Hunter Evans
Where the fuck can I get this t-shirt
Austin Lee
There are a shitton of different shapes That one is called burma baklava Doesn't really makes a difference tho, classical shape is the way to go Sure thing wh*tey
Tyler Price
>that flag
Of course a culture vulture would disagree.
Aaron Cooper
>>that flag What else did you expect Did you expect a fucking vietnamese to respond to your bait, dumb wh*te
Adrian Johnson

Jack Sanchez
Pig white or in this case persian woman need to stop trying to look like us moors with our gold sunkissed skin, natural big asses/boobs and plump lips
Chase Smith
>wtf is wrong with moroccans FTFY
>inb4 proof it's in morocco Morocco is well known for its mobs against homos and """"witches""""
Also just take a look at how these fuckers defend it.
Brody Adams
baklava is based on an old turkic recipe called güllaç and is not balkan at all
Isaiah Perez
>degenerate tranny acting like a cunt in ramadan is acceptable kys faggot
Chase Hall
>witches Lol yeah but you rarely hear of these outside maghib. The only one which I heard about in the west was that witch getting mobbed for making a cat eat spells.
>gays lucky I am butch and also carry a gun in the really shit neighbourhoods
witches are actually a problem tho, they scam people, kidnap children, abuse animals, steal towels from public baths, sell poisonous "magic" to ignorant people, and are generally a pain
Eli Peterson
A lot of armenians are browner than most moroccans are, girl always had an ass
Gavin Morris
>Not getting Algerian citizenship >2017
Brayden Edwards
What if Le Pen tries to recolonize Algeria? I can't sleep at night because of that thought.
Levi Ross
guys i'm really thinking about converting to islam (sunni branch of course, not the shia meme). christfaggery is just too cucky for me and atheism has gotten me lost. but my parents would disown me if i did. any advice?
Jayden Watson
Shoot up a church
Joshua Robinson
Why not Shia? Its comfier
Aaron James
and as a sidenote, judaism is def not an option since 1. israelis hate converts 2. hezbollah would hunt down and kill me
Thomas Price
We have 30m solders in Morocco and 30m stationed in Europe. You?
Adam Campbell
woah, do i have to be stripped of all moral scrupules to become a muzzie?
Isaac Davis

Jaxon King
>What you depart from is not the way >and olive tree blown white in the wind >washed in the Kiang and Han >what whiteness will you add to this whiteness, >what candor?
Leo King
If it happen then Hijra to Al Jazair begins. Meh the warrior aspect is cool but once you get into the theology of it if you're relatively sane you likely have problems trying to accustom yourself to the religion since it's pretty contradictory.
I remember when I was 16, Ramadan was coming and I pledged to myself that I would read and finish the Quran that month during my fast but after finishing it my belief or Eman if you will tanked because I just could not bring myself to subscribed to the teachings.
Ryan Taylor
>shooting up a church >immoral
Nicholas Wood
"The mosques are our barracks, the domes our helmets, the minarets our bayonets and the faithful our soldiers... "
Why is Erdogan so based?
Tyler Taylor
but think of the little altar boy being fiddled by the priest...
Julian Price
How about you just call yourself a muslim instead of a sunni or shia
Levi Stewart
Woah no, just believe that Allah is your god and that his prophet is Muhammed pbuh
Thomas Stewart
fuck wh*tey
Brandon Price
You might think that moroccans do this by all those razor marks on our upper arms but this is self harm because our mental issues not to appese the sky god
Aaron Murphy
sounds simple enough i think it's in iraq
Blake Wright
people of the book... it is haram and immoral. Just do a Hindu temple or something
Oliver Gonzalez
>and atheism has gotten me lost.
How so?
Sebastian Cox
Do what you feel is right and keep it to yourself. Not because your parents would disown you but because it would hurt them
Wyatt Smith
>shia meme
It's literally the only legitimate form of Islam, sunnism exists only because of the will of usurpers who killed the rightful caliph and literally all sunnis are beta bootlickers
Christopher Robinson
He has autism and wishes he lived in a Western country
Cameron Garcia
>Not posting the comfy university
Lincoln Smith
The ayatollah has declared this practice haram, no worry my friend
Christian Gonzalez

Jackson Parker

Jonathan Campbell
Do you guys have zataar?
Christian Peterson
I guess you can find it, but i've never een it in anyone's kitchen, I do use oregan though
Zachary Allen
Oregano is good. Would you consider the cuisine morw African/Arab/or medditeriaian?
Evan Ward
I'd say mediterranean, levantine and tunisian food isn't more close than tunisian and italian food desu
Reminder that couscous without octopus is not couscous
Aaron Ortiz
Interesting, never thought of it that way. I don't even think I had octopus.
