UAE vacation spot
> t-they are tourists not invaders
Hello RT
Mass raping of mingols.
UAE captured Socotra during Yemeni Civil War
the most alien looking place on earth
Black ops ii
nice place with lots of unique species because its isolated
uae captured it during the civil war in yemen and yemen couldn't do shit since due to cw,uae plans to expand the habour of Socotra and use it to dominate the trade of the region.
its envisioned to be a place where ships can trade before they pass the suez and every ship goes its own way.it could be quite lucrative if they didn't tax it too much
UAE should be nuked
t. yemeni
I would write something to encourage you if my internet wasn't monitored
One regiment of Houthi sandal launchers deployed in socotra VS the entire emiRATi armada
Who will win?
We tried to settle there but the land was shit for agriculture and not profitable
They were already rare some years ago, now imagine their fate since the island became a petronabab spot.
Very unique and alien island, will probably end up being raped in the near future to make way for resorts and shipping ports at the cost of ruining all its biodiversity and culture.

how do we save socotra from gulf sandniggers?
invasion and meme trees
Socotra is portuguese clay, give it back!
akshually
emiirikunta = emirate
emiirikunnat = emirates
Dragon blood trees grow there (named like this because of their valuable red resin). Pretty cool and unique nature in general.
Sadly it's part of Yemen and thus most likely dangerous as hell.
It's as Yemeni as Crimea is Ukrainian
i's not dangerous. the whole island is sunni so there's no religious tensions. who knows what happens now that the uae controls it, though.
stupid comment
are you a copt?
They were one of the few places on earth to "abandon" the Christian sect of Nestorianism.
Actually no. The UAE occupied it temporarily, but it has since been returned to the Hadi-government (the internationally recognized government of Yemen, currently busy with the civil war). Saudi Arabia brokered an agreement between the UAE and Yemen whereby Socotra was returned to Yemeni civilian administration and the UAE received military access to the island.

>army with one of the biggest budgets in the world
vs
>houthi sandal launchers
my money is on the houthis desu the saudis have been embarassing themselves so far
>The UAE occupied it temporarily
>UAE received military access to the island.
my friend from the north you should be smarter to believe that shitshow
>The UAE occupied it temporarily
they justified the invasion with a questionable 99 year lease, doubt they have any intention of giving it back to Yemen anytime soon
do you live in kensington?
Lol, 2 years here and I had never seen this place being mentioned on Jow Forums, didn't eve know its existence, thanks Jow Forums
*but im muslim
lets face it socotras excellent position means it was only natural that UAE occupied the island and I bet they have been drooling over it for a few decades
surprised you Saudi's or Oman didn't occupy it first t.b.h
check my name im no Saudi.
idk shit about omans logistical capabilities becuase they are reclusive but i know for sure saudi arabia cant haul its army to socotra +their ambof controling the east african trade arent as high as UAE
I will work in Saudi Arabia for a while. Can I wear Turbans or the other clothes rich arabs wear (forgot the english term, we call it qelebiya or some shit here) or will I get charged for cultural appropriation?
impossible
>cultural appropriation
kek
no you wont but you wont be walking a lot anyways
and nobody wears turbans
A tropic paradise island from what I know.
Everybody uses public transport or smth? I like LARPing desu
Is it true your internet is being monitored?
theres simply nothing to do worth getting out of your house
but let's say I want to wear a turban and enjoy getting irradiated by the sun
would it be acceptable or is it too silly?
