The Arab Youth of Chile – 12th meeting
(From early 2013)

This week long encounter took place in Concepción, Chile, with more than 100 youth.

Estadio Árabe (Arab Stadium) is a Sports complex in Concepción, which is the second largest metro area in Chile after the Santiago-Valparaiso area.

Sadly, Israel and the West have failed to do their proper groundwork in Chile. Radical elements have inserted themselves in Chile’s elite Palestinian community; a community that is about 99% Christian.

Most of these Chilean Palestinians have Christian ancestors, many of whom fled Turkish Islamic tyranny long before 1948.   Most Chilean Arabs have ancestors who arrived before 1930.

Arab Chileans: Wikipedia (Source)

61% of the Arabs arrived in our country did between 1900 and 1930. Over 60% of Arabs who came were between 10 and 30 years old.

They have been sold a distortion of history.

The West should do something to correct this.  This Palestinians in Chile are elite and can swing a lot of influence.

The Expulsion of the Moors

Latin Arabia History, Other , , 0 Comments


From: When the Moors Ruled in Europe

Spain kicked the governing Moors out of Spain in 1492, but allowed some Muslims to remain. Over time, the religious rights of the remaining Moors were restricted.

By 1609, the Moors (Moriscos in Spanish) were ordered to be totally expelled from Spain. It took about 5 years to complete.

Why is this important?

We know that many of these Moriscos went to Latin America. The early colonial records speak of Moors in Spain. There is evidence that the guachos might own part of their culture and dress to the Morisos.

I put this in as a reference point. Latin and Arab culture are different – certainly in religion – but not as different as one would think.

A Comparison Says It All

Comparison of Google video searches – as of Mar 16, 2013
English Spanish Portuguese # of hits Notes:
Arab Dance — — 6,510,000 In Spanish and Portuguese árabe
can mean both Arab and Arabic.
In Spanish there are two words for dance.
Hence the differing wordings.
Arabic Dance — — 8,710,000
— danza árabe — 3,020,000
— baile árabe — 13,000,000
— — dança árabe 4,280,000

I want you to ponder that.  Even though Engish is the dominant language on the internet by far (Click Here) , and even  though far more Americans are on the internet than Latins, it seems that  Arab(ic) Dance punches more hits in Spanish/Portuguese than in English.

Consider that there are more English speakers on the internet than Spanish/Portuguese. The USA, Canada, Caribbean, England, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, many populations in the former British colonies, etc.

Consider that many sections of the Latin World (in Central and South America) are too poor to have access to the internet, the way we take for granted in the West.

This should tell you right there that when adjusted for population ratios, the penetration of Arab culture into el mundo latino (The Latin World) is far more massive.

We in the West ignore this at our own peril.

Fortunately, up until now, this has been a Christian Arab influence; and if we use our heads, it will remain so. However, if we ignore Saudi and Iranian propaganda, which is starting to creep into the Latin world, then we will regret it.

Note: I know this is not exactly scientific, but it should tell you something that similar words searches are producing larger results in a smaller population.

Yes, word order can vary results immensely, so I only give this as a general index.
