An extremely interesting book "Island of dragon`s blood" by a British researcher Douglas Botting.
The book was published in 1958. Find out what was on Socotra during the time of Sultan.
The dragon's blood known to the ancient Romans was mostly collected from D. cinnabari, and is mentioned in the 1st century Periplus (30: 10. 17) as one of the products of Socotra. Socotra had been an important trading centre since at least the time of the Ptolemies. Dragon's blood was used as a dye, painting pigment, and medicine (respiratory and gastrointestinal problems) in the Mediterranean basin, and was held by early Greeks, Romans, and Arabs to have medicinal properties. Dioscorides and other early Greek writers described its medicinal uses.
Locals of Moomy city on Socotra island use the Dracaena resin as a sort of cure-all, using it for such things as general wound healing, a coagulant (though this is ill-advised with commercial products, as the Daemonorops species acts as an anti-coagulant and it is usually unknown what species the dragon's blood came from), curing diarrhea, lowering fevers, dysentery diseases, taken internally for ulcers in the mouth, throat, intestines and stomach, as well as an antiviral for respiratory viruses, stomach viruses and for skin disorders such as eczema. It was also used in medieval ritual magic and alchemy.
Dragon's blood of both Dracaena draco (commonly referred to as the Draconis Palm) and Dracaena cinnabari were used as a source of varnish for 18th century Italian violinmakers. There was also an 18th-century recipe for toothpaste that contained dragon's blood. In modern times it is still used as a varnish for violins, in photoengraving, as an incense resin, and as a body oil.
Ar*bs aren't even that violent, especially not Saudis or Levantines. You're much more likely to get into a fight with a Russian yokel from southern Siberia.

Modern myrrh has long been commented on as coming from a different source to that held in high regard by the ancients, having been superior in some way. Pedanius Dioscorides described the myrrh of the first century AD as most likely to refer to a "species of mimosa", describing it "like the Egyptian thorn". He describes its appearance and leaf structure as "spinnate-winged". The ancient type of myrrh conjectured was noted for possessing a far more delightful odor than the modern.
Myrrh is mentioned as a rare perfume in several places in the Hebrew Bible. In Genesis 37:25, the Ishmaelite traders to whom Jacob's sons sold their brother Joseph had "camels ... loaded with spices, balm, and myrrh," and Exodus 30:23-25 specifies that Moses was to use 500 shekels of liquid myrrh as a core ingredient of the sacred anointing oil.
Myrrh was an ingredient of Ketoret: the consecrated incense used in the First and Second Temples at Jerusalem, as described in the Hebrew Bible and Talmud. An offering was made of the Ketoret on a special incense altar and was an important component of the temple service. Myrrh is also listed as an ingredient in the holy anointing oil used to anoint the tabernacle, high priests and kings.
Oil of myrrh is used in Esther 2:12 in a purification ritual for the new queen to King Ahasuerus:
Now when every maid's turn was come to go in to king Ahasuerus, after that she had been twelve months, according to the manner of the women, (for so were the days of their purifications accomplished, to wit, six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with sweet odours, and with other things for the purifying of the women).
Considering Turkey doesn't have that good reputation in the western world right now and NATO doesn't seem to want to help Turkey out, you're probably right.

>On my way back, I came across a man walking the same rocky path. At first, I was going to ignore him and continue walking, but considering how friendly everyone had been on Socotra, I thought I should say hi. >I gave a quick hi, to which he replied with a very enthusiastic hi. >“I’m walking around the lagoon, now on the way back to my camping spot,” I replied to him. >“I know it. I saw it walking here. I’m Abdullah, I’m walking to my cave. I live there,” he said as he pointed towards the rocky shore I just walked. >“Do you really live in a cave?,” I asked back. >“Yes, you want to see it?” >“Of course!” >There was no hesitation there. I wanted to see this cave. But, is he really a caveman? Do these people even exist these days? Well, to an extent, they do! >Funny enough, he calls himself Abdullah the Caveman. He was slim, tanned, and to my surprise, smelled pretty good. He was barefoot, wearing a denim shirt, and a traditional miwaz – male skirt in Socotra. >As we walked uphill to his cave he shared his knowledge of the region, especially everything that surrounded us. >Even though Abdullah speaks English, he is still learning, so whenever he doesn’t know a word, he complements it with body language, mimics, or drawing on the ground. >Listening to Abdullah’s energetic and creative stories and explanations were always fun. >“You see this tree? If you cut [referring to getting a wound while mimicking cutting open his skin], you cut the tree. You see that? [pointing at the sap] You put on your skin, and it’s new!” >As we got near the cave, I noticed a boulder that had “Welcome” written on it with white paint and some more text in Arabic. >The welcome boulder at Abdullah’s Cave. “We are here! Look, ‘Welcome!’ [pointing to the boulder] Everyone is welcomed in my cave,” said Abdullah.
>Funny thing is that earlier, as I walked along the lagoon, I had seen that “graffitied boulder” and wondered what was it about, but didn’t care enough to explore it. The cave was not as visible from where I was walking. >Abdullah’s cave is what I would describe as a picture window cave. It has a big opening towards the sea, and as you go deeper, it gets smaller in size. >The entrance is decorated with two huge whale ribs and mandibles, making sort of an “official” entry threshold. That must have been a big whale! >Abdullah... turned towards me. “You want tea?” >Here I was, in a cave, in the middle of nowhere, and he still offers me tea? >Drinking tea is a strong tradition in Middle Eastern countries and it is one of those things you do and offer when socializing or welcoming someone to your home. >In the Middle East, you don’t say no to tea. Not even in a cave. >Abdullah immediately walked out to look for a few branches on the bushes near the cave, and in no time he set a small pyre by the cave’s entrance. He lit it, set his kettle, filled it with water, and dropped in a few tea leaves. >As we drank our hot tea, Abdullah began to talk about his life in the cave. He was born in that cave 57 years ago (he thinks!) and has lived there basically all his life. >He said he could live in the town nearby, but he prefers to live in the cave – a simple life. >He has a wife and a son, both living in Qalansiyah, which is about 45 minutes to an hour walking from the cave. >He supplies himself with the freshest seafood, which he catches by hand on a daily basis. He also dries the salt from the seawater for seasoning, gets medicine from the trees, and does all other survival techniques you can think of. >The salt Abdullah collects once the water evaporates. In general, he survives with nature and only relies on modern techniques when something is not readily available around him.

>Then you know nothing of history, mister raping Crusader.

That's just the normal tides of nationalism though. Every country is like that. But the enemy of Russians is largely Sunni Turks (Tartar/Crimean/Ottoman/Else), so the revulsion is understandable. Russia expanded to Vladivostok long before they ever bothered Tehran much. Turkic slavers farmed them so much the Mamelukes were Circassian
>I know more than you No. You don't. >Prove me wrong then Read your history since the napoleon era, genocide is like a national sport for you lot >At the time Japan was pretty much a shinto-only I thought it was before the modern time but I got confused a bit, whatever, why do you not hate shinto? >Religion is a tool for politics There you have it, you don't hate the religion then you just hate this or that empire that happens to be this religion. By all rights Europe killed x100 more Russians than Islam ever did.
You shouldn't hate Christianity because your enemy in this or that war was Christian nor should you hate communism because it killed 100 million peopl all over the world, hate those that wield power
that's the funny part of selling weapons to muslims. you can sell them a billion dollars worth of high tech weapons and they will still find a way to lose to a bunch of primitive goat herders using 60 year old rifles.
we are literally just looting them by selling them all that hardware.
Lucas Cooper
Sounds like the funny part is a Muslim Saudi making you his bitch.
