Hey Guyz. I can see ya'll talkin and quizin eachother with movies, songs, actors etc...

Well, I hope that no one got this idea be4 me, but since I really like history of islam then I would ask about the past (People and War)
Ex. Who was the Imam on Oman between the years (1624-1649)?!

Answer: Al-Imam Nasser Bin Murshid Al-Ya3rubi

So, ya'll guyz think that it's a good idea to start the challenge?!
Anyone around to start?

Mate , are you sure here that you're talking about Britain and not Italy , coz as far as i know , it was Italy that invaded Lybia at that period of time ,,and the Italian who arrested Omar Al Mukhtar , and by the way , Omar was not kiiled by hanging , he was killed by fired squad !! There's a street in Italy called after his name !

Oh My, I have just seen my history book, I'm sorry guyz but Navigator was completly right, Italian people are the ones who invaded Lybia... I just made a mix up between italian and Britain people, as you can say it in Arabic, they are almost the same!!!

Sorry:)

But as written in my History Book, he got hanged, and it was surly written!

Salam, i have question regarding Oman - Iraq relation. Historically Oman had and have a great relation with Iraq, and we dont want to forget Oman role in Kuwait-Iraq the seconGulf war, oman was the only gulf country contue relation with Iraq.

In history there was a situation that Iraq was invanded by perisian, and Iraq governer that time sent a letter to get support from Oman, who was the Oman governer that time and what was the action has taken, this story showed the real relation with iraq and how Oman support Iraq as a muslim country.
Good luck

Ok ,,


In the attack of Pearl harbour , two army operators at one of the shore radar stations detected the Japanese air attack approaching , and they contacted a junior officer who disregarded their reports !!


Why did he disregard their reports ?!!

Because the US needed a reason to enter the war and an attack on pearl harbor would be a good reason??

i don't think so ,,coz the casualties in the attack were over 2000 !!

nope it's not the reason !!

FaHaD
31-03-03, 03:57 PM
maybe,
the amirican army put some detectors along the pacific ocean thousands of miles away from the harbour...
therefore japanease ships must cross these dectectors before they launch the planes......
but somehow the japanease crossed those detectors without any alarms...:confused:

and those reporter detected the planes , the junior officer did not believe them because if teh japanease ships are approaching they should had been detected by other detectors away from those reporters...:lost: ..

LoL, am i correct...

I looked for the info and I found that the US were fully armed and alereted.. they didn't expect to be attacked by the Japanese who were secretly preparing.. furthermore, the US was thinking that the Japanese wouldn't be able to do anything since the American fleet was on Japan's flank.. so when they got the warnings from the 2 reporters the FBI didn't not believe them.. here's what happened..

10 August 1941, the top British agent, code named "Tricycle", Dusko Popov, told the FBI of the planned attack on Pearl Harbor and that it would be soon. The FBI told him that his information was "too precise, too complete to be believed. The questionnaire plus the other information you brought spell out in detail exactly where, when, how, and by whom we are to be attacked. If anything, it sounds like a trap." He also reported that a senior Japanese naval person had gone to Taranto to collect all secret data on the attack there and that it was of utmost importance to them. The info was given to Naval IQ.

Good try Fahad and Floret ,, but still it's not the reason behind disregarding the operators reports !

It's true that US was aware of an attack by the Japanese , but they didn't know , in which area it gonna be , coz at that time , there were many areas in which Japan could attack the US , Like Philipines , and the areas near by under the US control which stop the the Japanese from extending their empire !

Another point , is that some people argue that , the US president Roosvelt , was fully aware of the attack and it gonna be on Pearl Harbour,,but he did nothing , and those who argue that , say the the reason is to enter the World War II , without any objection by the politician and public !

Anyway , it's not the answer yet !!

Wanna have another go ?!!

got it goooooot it :D:p

well.. yes.. roosvelt knew abt the war.. BUT he wanted to force Hitler to declare war.. ya3ni Roosevelt wanted war.. oh my God
everyone was against the war so he didn't find a way but to ignore any warnings abt the Japanese attack so that he eneters the war.. oh my God.. he killed his ppl.. that's cruel.. just to get revenge on Hitler..

is it correct?
