"Dawasir (, sing. al-Dawsari) is an Arabian bedouin tribal confederation that was formed between South Arabian tribes and Taghlib tribe in central Arabia. The tribe gave its name to the famous valley in Najd or specifically the town of Wadi al-Dawasir (The Valley of Al-Dawasir) which had a population of 106,152 in 2010 and is divided into two main neighborhoods: al-Nawaima and al- Khamaseen, and spread in various parts of the Middle East. Nomenclature There are various theories surrounding the definition and origin of the term Dawasir, the two most popular ones being that it was derived from either the name of the tribe's purported forebear Dosser or the eponymous Arabic word which translates to "soldiers". Other sources include other terms such as the Arabic word for Lion or a type of Arabian horse. History=Bahrain The Dawasir migrated to Bahrain in 1845 from Zakhnuniya Island, south of UqairGazetteer of the Persian Gulf, Oman and Central Arabia by J.G. Lorimer. Volume 6, Historical Section: Qatar and mainly settled in and around Zallaq and Budaiya. American author Yitzhak Nakash, a prominent expert on the history of Shiism,http://fora.tv/2006/03/30/Shi_a_in_the_Modern_Arab_World described the tribe in his book Reaching for Power: The Shi'a in the Modern Arab World as being the "second largest and most powerful tribe after the Utub [in Bahrain]. So powerful were the Dawasir that their members recognized Sheikh 'Isa Al Khalifa as ruler in name only and considered themselves immune from taxation." Members of the tribe worked in the pearl industry and opposed the overthrow of Sheikh Isa ibn Ali Al Khalifa. Virtually all members of the tribe left Bahrain for Dammam after suspecting that the new ruler, Sheikh Hamad ibn Isa would attempt to tighten his control over them with British support and force them into submitting to his rule in 1923. The Dawasir were officially allowed to return in April 1927 by Sheikh Hamad after being requested by Ibn Saud to do so.Reaching for Power: The Shi'a in the Modern Arab World. By Yitzhak Nakash, p57. Years after the deportation of the Dawasir, a number of Huwala families arrived in Bahrain from southern Iran (mainly from the village of Jah Kotah), claiming to be members of the Dumkooh clan.يورد ج. ج. لوريمر في كتابه دليل الخليج القسم الجغرافي الجزء الاول صفحة (444 و 484 Their origin is disputed by some Dawasir scholars such as Sahood Aldosseri who deny claims put forward by apologists which assert that some Dumkooh clansmen are of Iranian origin because there are no records proving that an immigration of such a powerful clan would occur without any records remaining.ج ٨ ص ١٧ تاريخ الدموخ Branches of Dawasir They are a tribal confederation of three main tribes that allied with each other.

"Jar of Minuteman salsa Minuteman Salsa was a brand of salsa made in the United States. The brand was founded by Ryan Lambert along with four associates during the summer of 2006 in reference to the illegal immigration debate. Minuteman Salsa asserted that it was America's only 100% United States-made salsa. The company boasted of its "Americanness" as its main selling point, claiming the salsa was made in America using "American ingredients". The company's now-defunct web site criticized "Big Salsa" for owning factories outside the United States. Minuteman Salsa and founder Ryan Lambert were awarded a "Bum Steer" award by the Texas politics and culture magazine Texas Monthly in the January 2007 issue. The salsa and its founder appeared in numerous newspapers, including the Albuquerque Journal and the El Paso Times, along with radio talk shows. Minuteman Salsa claimed that it donated a portion of its profits to the Minuteman Project, an American vigilante organization that patrols the Mexico–United States border to prevent migrants from successfully crossing into the United States. The salsa's slogan was "Deport Bad Taste."
