For far too long, Saudi land has been the target of the colonial ambitions of European powers. Yet once again, those who imagined a triumphant march across Arabia have collided with something no army can easily break: the tenacity of a people united and determined to defend every inch of their homeland.

The barbarians and Templars arriving from Europe now march beneath the banners of Slovenia and Hungary—the same alliance that has long held Israel under its control. But the Saudi desert is not a land willing to bow. Here, every border becomes a trench, every city a fortress, and every kilometre seized demands an increasingly terrible price.

What was supposed to be yet another display of power is turning into a brutal ordeal for the invaders. Slovenian and Hungarian forces are meeting fierce resistance, while Arabia proves that a territory may be attacked, devastated and besieged—but not necessarily conquered.

We can only hope that more enemy soldiers lay down their weapons and that fewer invading units return home unscathed, because every unjustified assault must carry severe consequences. The aggression against Arabia once again exposes the true face of an expansionist, aggressive and colonising Europe—one that proclaims itself civilised while marching across the borders of others.

But among the Saudi sands, the wind is beginning to change.

Slovenia and Hungary may possess armies, alliances and occupied territories. Arabia, however, possesses something far more difficult to conquer: a people who refuse to kneel.

The desert does not forget. The desert does not forgive. And this war may yet become the graveyard of Europe’s ambitions.
