Almost everyone has heard about the latest locust (جراد) attack that has been spreading all over the region! All the way from Mauritania to as recently as Israel today! Apparently, Saudi Arabia is preparing to face them, not sure what the chances are for the locusts to come our way though…
The UN says that this could be the worst locusts plague in 15 years! Their path is as follow: Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, and now Israel. These things are freaking scary, listen to this…….The insects, which normally live between two and six months, eat their weight (about 0.07 ounces) in crops every day. They can travel 120 miles a day. Considering that they swarm in millions, thats an incredible amount of food they consume! Anyway, here are a few pics of the recent attacks -
Two other interesting tidbits of info -
- Faced with an invasion of locusts, the highest Islamic religious institution in Egypt has reportedly issued an edict allowing people to eat locusts.
- In Plato’s Phaedrus, Socrates says that locusts were once human. When the Muses first brought song into the world, the beauty so captivated some people that they forgot to eat and drink until they died. The Muses turned those unfortunate souls into locusts–singing their entire lives.

The ones they sell in souq are not edible due to the fact that they were sprayed with plant’s detergents and other chemical substances.

The Funniest thing.. is that early this morning I read the Al-Qabas newspaper and there was this journalist who wrote an article about the locusts and about how 30 years ago or even before that Kuwait used to value the locust because we used to eat them apparently.. But lately the Islamists kept on masacring every single topic of our life such as “Haram” this and “Halal” that.. that they came out with a “Fatwa” that said eating locusts was “haram”.. so yea.. one second they say something is “haram” and the next you see Egypt’s Islamists saying its “halal”.. Makes you think doesn’t it?

Jackie, dont forget that Islamists in Kuwait are against women voting or running for elections, while Islamists in Egypt (alazhar for sunnis) and Iran (Qum for shi3is) both allow them! But apparently we know Islam more than anyone else ;P

Talking nutritionally let me point out that a locust provides you with:
(1) high and fast energy supply; the chitin, what covers its body, is digested in few minutes to simple sugars and released into your bloodstream
(2) generally talking, all arthropods, the class that locusts belong to, have high protein-to-size ratio, so if locusts consumption is associated with good exercising you would build and shape muscles faster than if you eat meats! [for those who take amino acids for body building they can forget all about it- just eat locusts!]
(3) unlike human and higher mammals, their blood has no hemoglobin (the pigment that gives the blood its color) but they have another substance that carries more oxygen molecules than hemoglobin does!
(4) significantly enough, they are easy to digest so you can forget all abt constipation!

Purg & Ra1…..its not a sign of the armageddon, its one of the plagues sent to the Pharoah when he refused to free the jewish slaves, its the 8th out of the 10:
1 - All of the water was changed to blood
2 - An infestation of frogs sprang up in Egypt
3 - The Egyptians were afflicted by gnats
4 - An infestation of wild animals (some say flies) sprang up in Egypt
5 - Egyptian cattle died
6 - An epidemic of boils affected the Egyptians
7 - Hail rained from the sky
8 - Locusts swarmed over Egypt 9 - Egypt was covered in darkness
10- The first-born children of the Egyptians were slain by God
Jackie….the problem is that everyone is so adamant that their own interpretation is the only right one! Sometimes u feel like all this wisdom they possess from many years of religious teaching is so empty outside of what they learned and read!
Borashid, khalaas then akeed ull be joining us too at bughazi’s place for the machboos! btw, have u tasted yaraad min gabil?? If so, what does it taste like? If not, why?? U make them sound like the best thing since sliced bread ;P

I thought Jarad and Fish are the two only animals/organisms that can be eaten even if they were found dead. That’s what kitab ilislamiya said. Now those same people say its 7aram? thats pretty messed up.

Q, you are right that the locusts are from the plagues that struck Egypt however, Purg is not entirely wrong, one of the seven signs of the apocalypse in the book of Revelations in the bible is pestilence and wild beasts..which could be interpereted (because everything is interperetation) as locusts, dead fish, diseases, etc..
“Rev 6:{7} When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature call out, “Come!” {8} I looked and there was a pale green horse! Its rider’s name was Death, and Hades followed with him; they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword, famine, and pestilence, and by the wild animals of the earth.”
ALso locusts are directly mentioned in the book of revelations:
Rev 9:3 Then out of the smoke locusts came forth on the earth, and such power was granted them as the power the earth’s scorpions have.
Rev 9:7 The locusts resembled horses equipped for battle. On their heads was something like golden crowns. Their faces resembled the faces of people.
http://www.studybibleforum.com/htm_php.php3?do=jump_to_chapter&trans=AMP&refstr=re+9
“Locusts were also used as symbols of end-time, armor-plated, missile-firing, flying war-machines that were not known to the writers of the bible..”
http://www.keyway.ca/htm2001/20011126.htm
so you can interperet it as anything you want..
