 | | The Arab League is a political organization intended to encompass the Arab world. | | | In Somalia, although it is a member of the Arab league, the predominant language is Somali, and the population is Somali, not Arab. | | | Formerly, there were significant minorities of Arab Jews throughout the Arab world; however, the establishment of the state of Israel prompted their subsequent mass emigration and expulsion within a few decades. |

| | The Peace Encyclopedia: Arabic, Arabs, "The Arab World" |
| | As a result of the Arab conquest of the Eastern Mediterranean, and because of Islam's sumptuary laws with regard to the People of the Book and the Dhimmis it subjugated, Christians and Jews in the East were reduced to the level of 'tolerated' religious communities in their own homeland. | | | Shut off from the outside world by the sea and the peril of the desert around them, the Arabs are the purest race in the world, even purer than the Jews, many of whom have blond hair and blue eyes. | | | "The Arab world is a sink of corruption and... |

| | Despite the repeated and emphatic declarations of unity with Iraq, the recent televised brawl between Arab leaders at the Organization of the Islamic Conference in Qatar showed that the Arab world is actually anything but unified. | | | In essence, he told his subjects — and the Arab world — that in the event of a war, Jordan would do what it needed to do to protect itself, irrespective of calls for Arab solidarity. | | | For its part, the U.S. should no longer operate under the delusion that the Arab world is interested in larger Arab ideals. |

| | What Iraq's constitution means for the rest of the Arab world. By Michael Young |
| | In clinging to unitarian myths, many Arab societies and their regimes are utterly unprepared for the consequences of Iraq's demolition of the traditional framework for Arab politics. | | | As Arab nationalism endured one setback after another (the most injurious being the defeat by Israel in the June 1967 war), another absolutist notion reared its head and confronted nationalistic dictatorships: political Islam. | | | The most powerful was Arab nationalism, whose outstanding avatar, former president of Egypt Gamal Abdul Nasser, shaped Arab political dreaming in the 1950s and 1960s. |
