Bizarre North African Brotherhood and Ancient Balloons Tale
The piece describes the Aissaouns, a North African religious brotherhood named after Skli Mohaimmedi ben Aaissa, with sanctuaries across the region. It cites extreme self-mutilation rituals in Tunisian sacred sites and contrasts them with Humad athuz practices. It also recounts a 1920 hydrogen balloon incident causing a cattle stampede in 1930 near San Gabriel, killing 168, and notes Katzenelnbogen’s castle origin and a Teutoburgian linkage, mixing sensational folklore with historical allusions.
