What is America’s Blackwater? How does it terrorize the World? | MaroonPaper

Private military company Blackwater, now known as Academi and Constellis, has become a notorious name in the world of international security. Founded in 1996 by former Navy SEAL Erik Prince, the company has grown to become one of the world’s most influential private military firms. However, its reputation is far from positive. Blackwater has been accused of numerous human rights violations and war crimes in various countries around the world, all under the guise of the “war on terror.” In this article, we will delve into the controversial history of Blackwater and its global terror activities, as well as examine the impact of PMCs on national security operations and the need for increased accountability and transparency in the industry. It’s time to expose the true face of Blackwater and demand accountability for its actions.

Iraqi Jewish confectionery are a window into a bygone era

Five days a week, 78-year-old Tzvi (Sabah) David rises at 4:35 a.m. and dons an all-white baker’s outfit before heading out to open up Konditorei David, the last-of-its-kind Iraqi pastry shop in Petah Tikva that was opened by his father David Tsalah.

Three days before the Purim holiday, David is getting ready for one of the busiest times of the year as multiple generations of Iraqi customers will soon stop by to purchase sweets that have been synonymous with Purim for Iraqi Jews for centuries, if not millennia.

“I love the work. It is a very tiring and difficult job and I am not 18 anymore, but I feel young in the morning when I get up,” David tells Eliyahu Freedman of The Times of Israel on a recent visit to the small shop, which doubles as a window into the pre-modern world of Middle-Eastern pastries.

His first item of business today is making a fresh batch of baba qadrasi, also known in Arabic as “mann el-sama” or “manna from heaven,” named after the legendary food that God miraculously delivered from the sky to feed the Israelites in the Exodus story.

If not truly the biblical food itself, an early recipe for baba qadrasi was found in a 10th-century Abbasid cookbook.

I have been waiting to taste this סביח /sa-'beekh/ for so long...

... and now, after 17 hours on the road, we arrived at Angel's cafe in Sharon, MA, there they serve the best Sabeekh I have ever had outside of Israel!

Those 17 hours are definitely showing, but I decided to ignore it, and focus on sharing this delight with you...

... not without lessons in Hebrew, off course! 😀

I have a detailed lesson for you on the magical sabeekh which I will post very soon (and others this great place inspired me to make that I think you will love)

but if you know what sabeekh is, tell me in the comments your experience with it, and what do you think about it.

Stay tuned for this and other lessons from Angel's cafe...

Ancient Mesopotamian Recipes ("judge's morsels")

Loukoumades (لُقْمَةُ ٱلْقَاضِيِ)

This dough is made with flour, sugar, yeast, and lemon zest. The loukoumades are drizzled with melted chocolate, covered in cinnamon and honey, and sprinkled with pistachios.

The recipe for Luqmat al-Qadi, yeast-leavened dough boiled in oil and doused in honey or sugar syrup with rosewater, dates back to at least the early medieval period and the 13th-century Abbasid Caliphate, where it is mentioned in several of the existent cookery books of the time. It is also mentioned in One Thousand and One Nights, in the story The Porter and the Three Ladies of Baghdad.
