Kek, these people never had a civilization

what you say perkele

t.

Not really, but there is a huge effort to preserve historical sites and buildings, of the original settlers of the 19th century and archeology gets an absolute massive amount of attention.

highly burger post

In the countries where there have stable governments they do look after artifacts. Iraq pre war, Egypt, Syria pre war, Jordan, Lebanon.

They don't LARP over it though

sorry

Iran under the Shah did a fair bit of ancestor worship. They spent millions on the 2500th anniversary celebrations of the Persian Empire.

Nowadays sadly thanks to the theocracy They don't embrace their heritage as much as they should.

Because ALLLAH HURKADURKA SAYS IT'S BAD, YOU SHOULD THROW YOURSELF TO THE FLOOR 5 TIMES A DAY AND SCREAM SOMETHING TO ALLAH AND NEVER SAY ANYTHING BAD TO ALLAH. REMEMBER ALLAH IS BEST.

>this is the man who controls Erdogan

Really makes you think.

Islam. Islam condemned anything pagan, calls pagans the lowest of all creatures and has an arrogant self-obsession. This is why Islam for centuries has been destroying artefacts.
>B-But there are still artefacts in the Middle East today!
1. Many of these were simply too difficult to destroy due to being incredibly large or sturdy.
2. A lot of them became dig in. You see this in a lot of Islamic State videos, where commentary "justifies" the absence of destruction by stating that in the time of the Prophet these sites weren't visible yet and had been only excavated in a certain year (example: even as Napoleon was campaigning in Egypt, most of the Great Sphinx was probably still underground).

Compare Catholic Christianity. Its belief that no man is without sin and that it is inherrently the grace of God (let's not get into the Sola Fide debate for now) that saves us creates a sense of modesty. This combined with the Catholic Church adopting a lot of Greek logic and philosophy meant that Catholocism inherrently has a great reverence for Rome and Hellenism. Hell, it even had this whole doctrine of "good pagans" who cannot go to heaven but don't go to hell either (strangely enough Caesar is considered one of them, the guy who casually burned villages and started gang wars in Rome). The view of Catholics on their pagan ancestors is generally "they were pretty cool guys, such a shame they were pagans" rather than "that was an age of darkness, only Islam enlightened us!".

Of course these are the general ideas/doctrines and on both sides we have people who went against the grain (Savanarolla's Bonfire of Vanities, Ottoman rulers who meticulously preserved East Roman findings et cetera), but that's why conservative groups like ISIS arise to "correct" them.

Nigger are you daft? The Middle East fucking invented civilization.

less NEETs

>NEETs
Friend, every Western major power has been obsessed with claiming to be the heir of Rome since the fall of the Western Empire at the very least. Why do you think eagles are such common national animals? Or why fascism exists? Or why even the non-fascist powers of America and France heavily use fasces symbolism?

ALLAHU AKHBAR!!!

Stop :(

It's a shame the arab youth are trying to be more Western now-a-days and losing their heritage.

probably the only way the region will ever improve though, that and non-secularism dying

Its not shame. Arab culture has nothing to offer, its disgusting just like its people, sooner it dies the better

Atleast Asian are proud of our heritage
(in an autistic way)

What culture, idiot. Arabs never cared about what their ancestors did. They only care about ALLAH, ALLAH THE BEST, ALLAH STRONG, ALLAH ALLAH ALLAH ALLAH

Asian culture is very interesting and It's always fun to read when new stuff gets discovered.

?

Egyptians and Persians are pretty "we wuz" tier.

Did the Taliban blow up the Buddha statues because they became more western and lost their heritage?

I'm talking mostly about Arabs desu

this is some top tier waifu material

Egyptians are Arabs.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_culture
Fucking baka.

This is NOT ACCEPTABLE, ALLAH ALLAH ALLAH. ONLY ALLAH IS CULTURE OF ARABS, DIE DIE DIE, ALLAH SNACKBAAAR!

I never met a single Arab in my life that hates pre-islamic Arab era

They don't have time to worry about things like that. athe only things they care about are blowing each other up and destroying the west.

>We are not middle eastern you faggot

I met a Saudi that did. He was a bit crazy though.

There are some ultra mega captain jihads out there in Saudi Arabia so I can't say I'm surprised.

>I never met a single Arab in my life that hates pre-islamic Arab era

>literally no arab cared that artifacts got smashed during muhammeds time
>literally no arab cares that IS and other crazy arabs destroy artifacts

lmao delete yourself twat, only Egyptians seem to care about their past which is kudos to them. The rest is garbage and deserve to be burned alive.

>t#rkish subhuman

Hahahahaha You're a special kind of pathetic aren't you. And claiming something doesn't make it factual if they didn't care about artifacts that were destroyed why would they make an effort in the first place to preserve them? You cum guzzling blacked femdom/tranny loving manlet

They don't hate what they think doesn't even exist.

>no healer
wipe

pre-Islamic middle east was nothing but sodomites and faggots desu

Saddam Hussein wanted to rebuild Babylon and had his palace modelled on the ruins Nebuchadnezzar's Palace. There is also a recreation of the Library of Ashurbanipal in Iraq. Of course, it's not clear how accurate these recreations are.

Mind you, modern Iraqis are not the same race that built Babylon or Assyria in ancient times. But the point is that some of them are very interested.

Secular authoritarians have plenty of reason to hold up ancient emperors and tyrants as heroes and role-models, so it's no surprise that a man like Hussein had those interests. But with the apparent decline of such regimes and the rise of Mohammedans hostile to any culture living or dead that is not also Mohammedan, I very much doubt we'll see anything else like Hussein's efforts in the near future.

And thus the general explanation: anything of significance needs state support because it isn't directly profitable, and whatever the populace may think or feel, the fact is that states in the Middle East are lacking the interest or the material capability to do anything substantial or useful with the ancient heritage of the region.

>he had no argument and couldn't disprove me so he went full on personal attacking

Well no need to continue arguing, ALLAH SNACKBAR

I could completely dismantle your statement but it won't change your opinion since you have some deep rooted hatred for Arabia for God know why

because they're still in it
