2) Kamal Salibi was literally a fiction writer (as patently shown in his theory of the origin of Moses). THe Marib dam population is another fiction. Any scholar citing him for anything historical is effectively a fraud. cc:@PZalloua We are debunking that crap with min effort — PolitiTweet.org

This is TOTAL BS 95% population is local. The Maronites RELIGION came from near Apamea, the POPULATION is local. Sunnis is Lebanon have ~NO Peninsular origin. And the Druze are loca, and, if anything Anatolians. If there is a "foreign origin", it is Anatolian for ALL >3000 y ago. — PolitiTweet.org

@ycmizrahi The Gulf despises "Shamis" (Levantines) and they consider us pretenders & a highly impure race, so their form of antisemitism is directed towards Levantines. Jews don't bother them as much. — PolitiTweet.org

@ycmizrahi Yes the thing is about lithurgy, not culture. Ezra told me how he wrote in Judeo-Arabic, his father's script. I could speak to him for 24 hours without noticing. — PolitiTweet.org

3) The idea of the Brier Score is that you need to be *precise* hence minimize the error rate. Under maximal uncertaity it becomes betting at ½. Same with entropy. This is our response to Silver's agent: https://t.co/EVBjFUAbuf — PolitiTweet.org
