The indigenous people of North Africa, the Berbers, or more properly, the Amazigh, have long suffered under the yoke of Arab supremacism. Often referred to as the "Maghreb", the Amazigh, instead, refer to their ancestral homeland as "Tamazgha", presently under Arab occupation. For more information on the indigenous people of Tamazgha, see postings under Algiers; Algeria; Atlas Mountains; Cyrenaica; Fez; Djerba; er Riadh; Libya; Casablanca; Morocco. More Berber postings to come.
Welcome to my revived blog. OK. I’ll get to the point. My fantasy is to start a movement for indigenous Middle Eastern independence from Arab occupation by focusing on indigenous Middle Eastern current events and history, with particular attention to Israel (cuz after all, I am Jewish). So unless it is absolutely important, no Arab will be mentioned. Sorry Arabs but you don't count.
For the record, I'm neither an academic nor a scholar, and admittedly, I've never been to many of the places posted here. So if someone should find a mistake, or believe I omitted something, please feel free to email me and I'll correct it.
