they couldnt let pakistan or afghanistan in? not even mali or chad where they speak arabic?
>>214659875They're semitic innit?
>>214660013but they dont even speak arabic, you know pakistan would change the national language to arabic to join right saar bro
>>214659875a high percentage of them speak arabic as a second language, and they are more integrated in the arabic geopolitical sphere
i never understood why djibouti exists, it's just french somalia with military bases that is the size of NEW JERSEY - 70% of the population is somalia and the rest is afar which is a almost identical group with similar language and dna, culture etc djboubti has like 10% arab population from yemen and even then they are mixed and dont speak arabic welleritrea is also in the arab league technically, as an observer stateComoros is even a stranger case since they bantu country but they are in the arab league just because they are muslimthe former countries however are both are apart of the wider middle east. jeets are not and are much further way, their culture is sedentary while most north african, horn african and arabian culture are nomadic and muslim. pakis/jeets are farmers who didn't even eat as muslims until recently and have a caste system rather than the traditonal tribe/clan system found in "arab" countriesas a lebanese we don't even identify as arab despite the idea of an "arab" league being invented by us. the Arab league was formed only as a response to counter soviet and american influenced for the region that have historical trade, it has nothing to do ethnicity or race
>>214660824>as a lebanese we don't even identify as arabThis is bullshit
>>214660706arab identity is fake, arab league should be broken up. gulf arabs are the only ones benefit from it's existence by meddling in other countries. low iq Bedouins like you have no right to fuck with other countries in the middle east
>>214660896see >>214660899we aren't arab. Keep coping, arab is used an insult in the Levant
>>214660899>low iq Bedouins like you have no right to fuck with other countries in the middle eastlmao all middle eastern people are low IQ retards
>>214660899no we dont benefit from it retard, nor does it ever served our interest historically. arab identity isnt fake its all over our tradional poetry and history. i support reforming the arab league into something like the francophone or lusophone associations where it is an association of a language with more effort on cultural production and exchange less politics
>>214660899>arab identity is fakeIt's a construct but that's different from being fake.
>>214661096he is half right, more than 150 years ago identifieng as an arab was rare and non existiant in some areas of the levant, egypt north africa, but in the arabian peninsula and some parts of the levant it has existed from pre-islamic times
>>214660944>arab is used an insult in the LevantNo it's not
it was then adopted but most of the levant activists and nationalists in order to make an anti ottoman front
>>214661174Crusader Kings tells me those were Mashriqis.
>Somalia and Djibouti are in the Arab League because of their strong historical, cultural, and religious ties to the Arab world, rather than solely on the basis of their population's native language. Both countries made Arabic an official language and adopted it for religious and official use to secure membership, even though the majority of their populations primarily speak their own native Somali or Afar languages. This membership reflects a broader definition of "Arab" that includes cultural orientation, shared Islamic faith, and geopolitical considerations beyond just language
>>214661230there is tradional arab identity tied to bedouins and the arabian peninsula, and there is the modern yugoslav-like arab identity which was mostly a united anti ottoman front consisting of lebanese syrians, and hejazis who made the arab revolt
>>214661350>hejazisAre these not traditional Arabs?
>>214660899>gulf arabs are the only ones benefit from it's existenceDidn’t happen not once, in fact it’s the opposite case, thanks to it we wasted billions on useless arab countries. Lebanon would’ve been in rubble decades ago without gulf money, you owe us
>>214660899>>214661039>>214662218why not instead make it a serious union/block, like the EU? one currency to start for example, or collective barganing with foreigner countries as a single market
>>214659875Even Arabic dialects aren’t mutually intelligible especially Maghreb dialects
>>214659875you forgot comoros. yes comoros islands are in the meme too. why pass up on them sweet gibs.>>214663452correct. the so-called "arab league" is the fakest and gayest psyop and scam. as a rule of thumb anything outside this has nothing to do with arabs.
>>214664534so no chance it becomes the brown version of the EU?
Why do Lebanese animal freak out about being called Arab? In every Arab related thread they come in and try to derail it. What kind of inferiority complex is this? Imagine calling gulfies bedouins while begging them for gibs
>>214659875Life is just weird like that, at least they have significant ancestry from arabia.What of me though? I only speak some form of arabic as a second language, and i am not ethnically an arab, yet i will be assumed to be so by outsiders more than say a somali, i don't mind though.Its just an implication of geopolitics and somewhat history, but mostly geopolitics.
>>214667311And what is your haplogroup?
>>214668476E-M81
>>214668747Yeah not a Arab based haplogroup
>>214660463They would have already done it if teaching people Jeetspeak wasn't already a problem for them lol
>>214667311>significant ancestry from arabia.no they don't, they share a common ancestors, you also share the same ancestor with them
>>214660013actually Cushitic
>>214671090We all share the few same ancestors sweetie.
>>214663452>Even Arabic dialects aren’t mutually intelligible especially Maghreb dialectsStop this shitty meme. Anyone with half a brain in the middle east can understand each other just fine. North africa is the only actual difference
>>214671180>Anyone with half a brain in the middle east can understand each other just fineDepends on which accent, age, and how urban/yokel the speaker is.
>>214671194which accents are intelligible with who? or is only the Moroccan one harder to understand? like khaleeji shami and egyptian should be understandable by all but what about dareejah
