      ]قَالَتِ الأََعْرَابُ آمَنَّا قُلْ لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا وَلَكِنْ قُولُوا أَسْلَمْنَا[ (الحجرات: من الآية14).
      الاعراب هم البدو في الخليج و نجد بالأخص و قبائل نجد و كل من والاهم
      راح تشوفون كثير يتحسسون من هذا الكلام لأن ما يعرفون دينهم عدل. الله ما جابهم من سابع سما و حطنا بالأرض علشان نتبع اجدادنا و آبائنا و نمشي على ما كانو عليه. هم يدافعون عن العقلية الصحراوية بسبب العاطفة و لا يفهمون قول الله وَلَا تَزِرُ وَازِرَةٌ وِزْرَ أُخْرَىٰ ۚ وَإِن تَدْعُ مُثْقَلَةٌ إِلَىٰ حِمْلِهَا لَا يُحْمَلْ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ وَلَوْ كَانَ ذَا قُرْبَىٰ ۗ إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ الَّذِينَ يَخْشَوْنَ رَبَّهُم بِالْغَيْبِ وَأَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ ۚ وَمَن تَزَكَّىٰ فَإِنَّمَا يَتَزَكَّىٰ لِنَفْسِهِ ۚ وَإِلَى اللَّهِ الْمَصِيرُ (18) يعني هم يدافعون على تخلفهم أجدادهم و عاداتهم وتقاليدهم الرجعية بسبب العاطفة و يضنون ما مس أجدادهم مسهم و هاذي عبودية لغير الله و العياذ بالله. الإسلام هو دين يحرر الإنسان من العبودية لغير الله مما يعني أن الإنسان ليس مسؤول بأن يتبع ما وجد عليه ( عادات وتقاليد و فكر بيئته ووووو...الخ ) فهاذي كلها خلق مخلوق ليست خلق خالق. الله يبينا نكون أفضل نسخة من نفسنا و لكي نوصل لهذا الشي علينا عدم الانبطاح لبيئتنا الي الله حطنا فيها. و للمعلومة انا و أنتم كلنا اخترنا ان نكون في هاذي الدنيا. إِنَّا عَرَضْنَا الْأَمَانَةَ عَلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَالْجِبَالِ فَأَبَيْنَ أَن يَحْمِلْنَهَا وَأَشْفَقْنَ مِنْهَا وَحَمَلَهَا الْإِنسَانُ ۖ إِنَّهُ كَانَ ظَلُومًا جَهُولًا (72) لمن سألنا الله في السماء قبلنا ان نكون بالدنيا لم نختر اصلنا ، عرقنا أرضنا، ...الخ لكن الاعراب الحفاة العراة العاله كما وصفهم الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم لا يفكرون بهاذي الطريقة هم على ما آبائهم كانو عليه.

    The movie does not portray Lawrence as a hero. He fails at the end and it is clearly shown. It's a movie about a conflicted individual who got lost while searching for his own identity.

    The movie was not written by TE Lawrence- don't blame him or its faults. Read the 7 Pillars of Wisdom. In that book, Lawrence gave enormous credit to British soldiers and Bedouin Arabs. He was not racist and held Arabs in high esteem. He was a very tough resourceful soldier and an intellectual. By and large, he was shy and modest.

      The Turks were known for their cruelty to the Arabs and the Arab Revolt was started by King Hussein long before Lawrence was in the desert and before the British. The Turks had an empire, the Ottoman Empire and it was crumbling. The British fought against the Turks because the Turks sided with the Germans in the First World War who were enemies of the British.
      The Turks were already divided from Arabs long before Lawrence or the British came to fight.

  • @three1seven419

    I don’t think the movie depicted Lawrence as a hero but rather showed the downfall of a man who had beliefs of grandiosity. His character eroded over time. Also, it’s worth looking into why some of the tribes of Arabia who had Lawrence live amongst them revered him so much as to name their sons “Awrance”? Until today it remains the only western name for man that is socially acceptable. I’m not saying that the movie had problematic elements and I have no doubt that Lawrence was serving the English imperial power but I wonder if the man’s allegiance remained consistent throughout his career.

  • @harrysecombegroupie
    @harrysecombegroupie 3 роки тому +26

    This video makes valid points about problematic orientalism and historical inaccuracies in the film, as well as the actions of the British during WWI, but it also grossly misinterprets the movie and the real Lawrence's actions, motivations, and character. The film itself is anti-British, anti-imperialist, and anti-White Saviour. The British are shown openly scheming to deceive the Arabs and carve up the middle east in their own interests. British officers a shown as racist, and far from depicting him as a hero, Lawrence is shown as naïve and arrogant. The film deliberately subverts the White Saviour trope.
    The real Lawrence believed in Arab independence, not British and French rule, as this video claims. He was disgusted by the duplicity and broken promises of the British government and actively worked against the British after the war to try to win a better deal for the Arabs: negotiating on their behalf at Peace Conferences, publishing letters denouncing the British and French, and refusing a knighthood in the presence of the King in protest. He regretted his involvement in the Arab Revolt and admitted that trying to influence another people and country was naive and arrogant and that he'd had no right to do so.
    Far from depicting himself as a Rambo figure in The Seven Pillars of Wisdom, Lawrence is very honest about his own flaws and failures. He downplays the roles of other British and French officers in order to emphasise the importance of the Arab Revolt, not to glorify himself. He gave credit to Arab leaders where it was due.
    The Turks are depicted unfavourably because Lawrence witnessed Turkish atrocities at close hand: particularly a brutal massacre of women and children. He also admits to committing atrocities himself.
    Lawrence made unflattering statements about the Arabs, but also praised them elsewhere. He made equally scathing comments about the British and French.
    Lawrence co-operated with Lowell Thomas as he thought the publicity would help the Arab cause. He later regretted this and thought Thomas was a fool.
    At least some of the Bedouin Lawrence worked with respected him enough to name their sons and grandsons Lawrence.
    The kind of misinformation, bias, and distortion of history that this video presents is highly counterproductive, regardless of your race, nationality or religion: it only serves to fuel prejudice, ignorance, and hatred.

    There is no denying that Lawrence led the attack on what was considered to be an impregnable Akaba and he successfully captured it which was quite an accomplishment by itself. Also he conducted a guerrilla war against the Turks and blew up many of their rail lines in Arabia. All this was accurately portrayed in the 1962 movie. He had no part in the tricky Allied diplomacy pursued during and after WWI.

      Don't take this video as a history lesson - it's about as misleading and biased as the movie it criticizes! The real Lawrence was disgusted with the actions of the British in the Middle East and deeply ashamed of his role in the war. He actively fought against his own government to try to win a better deal for the Arabs: publishing letters in newspapers denouncing the British and French, refusing a knighthood in the presence of the King, and throwing his medals into a river in protest. History is more complicated than simple heroes and villains. Seek out the facts for yourself.

      @Baby Sama 712 Lawrence was far from beyond criticism, but he was certainly not evil. And he certainly never considered himself a hero. He wanted independent states for the Arabs, not British and French control, as this video claims. He predicted the unrest and bloodshed that would happen if the British and French carved up the Middle East for themselves, and actively tried to prevent this. I'm neither British nor French, so I have no reason for bias. But I have read many books about him (both in praise and highly critical of his actions) as well as literally hundreds of letters and reports written by Lawrence and have a much clearer idea of his character and motives than the creator of this video.

    At the same time that the Turks were commiting genocide against the Armenians and Assyrians they were starving the Arabs of greater Syria into submission. Syrian civilians suffered a huge rate of mortality through a deliberate policy of starvation and deprivation during the Arab Revolt years.
    There are valid criticisms in this video, especially of the movie version of history, but there are some distortions here, too. For instance, the "regular" soldiers of the Revolt who served under English, French or Arab officers wore uniforms, but there were also many bands of tribal cavalry like Auda Abu Tayi's Sharif Nasr's and Nuri Shaalan's riders, the Rualla cavalry and Druze cavalry none of whom wore uniforms.
    A significant distortion is the implication that Lawrence approved of the Anglo-French "betrayal by partition" of the Arabs. He hated that, and he made his feelings clear. In the end he washed his hands of all of it in a dishonorable way, but the many losses, traumas and horrors he'd suffered and the guilt of his participation in the betrayal haunted him and crippled his psyche.

    The Prophet ﷺ also prophesied that carnal pursuits would not only infect his nation but would be the cause of their downfall and devastation. Thawbān (rA) reports that the Prophet ﷺ said, “The nations will soon invite one another to devour you, just as diners are invited to a dish.” It was said, “Will it be because of our small number on that day?” He said, “No, rather you will be many on that day, but you will be [weightless] foam, like the foam on the river. And Allah will remove the fear of you from the hearts of your enemies, and will cast weakness into your hearts.” Someone said, “O Messenger of Allah, what will this weakness be?” He said, “The love of this world, and the hatred of death.”[58]
    Reinforcing this point, Anas (rA) narrates that the Prophet ﷺ said, “Once my nation considers five things permissible, then destruction will befall them: when cursing one another appears, wine is drunk, silk is worn [by men], musical instruments are played, and men suffice themselves with men and women suffice themselves with women.”[59] Certainly, Muslims today are not insulated from the ideologies demanding the acceptance of same-sex acts in the world around them. This is even imaginable for a practicing, mosque-goer Muslim, if they allow their religiosity to be reduced to a cultural identity, as the Prophet ﷺ said in a hadith narrated by ‘Abdullah b. ‘Amr (rA), “An age will surely come when people gather and pray in the mosques, while there is not a single believer amongst them.”

    The narrative of the arabs being primitive is completely consistent with how the victorian British viewed every aboriginal people on the planet, so in that sense the story is pretty accurate and it’s not gard to see why the Arabs would take offence. There were internal rivalries amongst the Arabs going back centuries, that had to be overcome to unite them to beat the turks. Also, the British high command used Lawrence to manipulate the arab revolt to for its own ends, i.e. to get the region’s resources (oil) for Britain deprive the Ottoman empire and the Arab leaders used him to improve their bargaining position when it became time to negotiate their independence. So while the Arabs don’t like how they are portrayed and the chronology is played with, from a big picture standpoint it does present the English perspective overall. It shows that this whole theatre was about manipulation, who was playing whom, and how it is never quite clear - Alanby is himself shocked at the end when he finds out that Faisal has been playing him. And it also demonstrates what a flawed individual Lawrence was. So I think from a big picture standpoint the story being told captures a certain truth about those events.

    He served the British empire at the time, but I do believe he wanted the Arabs to have there own state. When he found out this wasn't to be, he fought hard to fight for the Arabs cause. The film and propaganda that followed wasn't his doing. People that believe it was all Lawrences ideas and he alone over threw the Turks are very naive.

    Your views on the film are pretty simpleton. You entirely ignore the fact the film demonized Lawrence greatly to the point Lawrence fans were offended. Lawrence is never shown in a good light in the film and he's not a typical white saviour character. He's a deeply flawed human being. Sherif Ali was the character who had honour and humanity in him. Lawrence was sadistic.
    By the way, calling it orentialism 101 is incredibly cringeworthy.
    You tried to bash on real-life Lawrence by using a beloved film as a vehicle. The least you can do is to not disrespect it instead of grossly misinterpreting it. Smh
