THE MIDDLE EAST PAST AND FUTURE
The middle east (MENA) was the product of four forces that ceased to be useful when the muslims conquered constantinople, ending byzantium, and forcing the European age of sail that ended the silk road, the value of flood river irrigation, and the utility as a nexus of the four continents, with the transport, commercial and financial revolution just as surely as european capture of petrochemicals created the industrial revolution and ended the utility of farming.

Ancient World Benefits:
1. Four contients (trade)
2. Flood river valleys (food)
3. The Silk Road (trade)
4. Resulting population (energy)
Became a resource curse.

In other words, while an early advantage, the ME fell into the resource curse. The arab expansion destroyed the great civilizations of the ancient world and the dynamic between them, so despite the multiple attemps fo the persians to resurrect learning, fundamentalism had effectively ended the middle east’s potential by 800 despite it taking to 1000 to manifest, and the 19th century to die.

The arab expansion and islam were as bad locally as islam was for every primitive people it spread to. We cannot even resurrect persian civilzation now. And NW indian civilization is lost. China is trying to stop it’s spread and I suspect will succeed. Russian, European, and expecially subsaharan african civilization are still vunlerable.

Each iteration of abrahamic cult of deceit is just a drug of increasing power of addiction: judaism christianity islam and their repetition in the marxist to woke to new-islamist sequence are all the same strategy of providing an alternative to the stress of indo european civilizations and east asian civilizations which require self regulation, responsibility, and trust that appears impossible to the family, clan, tribe and cult nature of the middle east, that prevents the formation of economy and nationalism which requires abandoning of fundamentalism. however the fundamental problem of the MENA world is with an average IQ of 84, it’s not possible to form a modern industrial civilzation with mass employment. So if MENA could not transform to 18th century technology and society how can it transform to 21st? It can’t. That is what the west discovered in our attempt to finish the modernization of the middle east, bringing about the end of our experment with neo-conservatism, and our hope to end world poverty. It can’t be done. 🙁
