How far can sibling rivalry go?

Sibling rivalry is a nature, not nurture, driven. It is a quest for survival with destructive consequences. The origin of the most conflicts in Middle East especially between Israelis and their Arab neighbours has an ancient root of sibling rivalry. In the video link bellow you see my grand children. Notice how far the eldest one is going because her brother has taken the centre of attention from her. How did she know to make this deadly move? Well, she didn't learnt it, it was nature-driven move to compete to preserve her position. It was a sibling rivalry move with all its ugliness and damaging consequences. Nevertheless it was naturally compatible to remove competition. On the positive side, from now I can predict her future. She is going to be successfully competitive.

She has been always the centre of attention and my video camera always has been following her.

I am going to complete my comment on the video.

What my grand daughter demonstrated is a billion year old trait, which started to evolve when we and all other living beings were as small as microscopic sizes. This sibling rivalry is a competition between two opposing entities for best choices of survival. It is nature driven and it doesn't depend on blood relationship. My grand daughter would have done the same thing with any other child.

This behaviour my need some thing very unique to trigger it. My granddaughter used to be the centre of all attentions from us and my video camera was always following her. But now she has a brother taking our attention from her to himself. So it is not surprising a billion year old instinctive drive triggered her to act against competition.



Sibling rivalry in Middle East culturally neutralised and encouraged. But generally in most cases it is neutralised because of age and gender. Within a family the eldest sibling male rules and he can not be questioned. He rules on his younger brothers, all his sisters and his mother. A younger brother submits to the authority of his older brothers obediently and rules on all his younger brothers, sisters and his mother. A younger sister submits to the authority of her older sisters and all her brothers.

This culturally enforced sibling authority works all right if all brothers and sisters have the same mother. But if they are half brothers and sisters, like from the same father and two mothers, the order collapses and the sibling rivalry starts to act. This is mainly because the father discriminates between his wives. Usually the last wife and her children becomes his favourite. We all have heard the story of Joseph and his eldest half brothers. His half brothers sold him and told their father that he was killed and eaten by a pack of wolves. This is all because their father was discriminating against them in favour of Joseph, whose mother was the youngest wife of his of dad.

With only 1 children and 2 grandchildren I see no hope for the Kurdish population. We need higher birth rates more than others, because Kurds are not free, our land is occupied, and there is a assimilation policy against Kurds in this states. And the occupation of Kurdistan happend even because Kurds were and still are a minority. With a low birth rate, we will end exactly like armenians and assyrians.
