somali man on r/askmiddleeast questions Arabs on whether hes allowed to call himself one

šŸ˜‚ you had to put me in this situation donā€™t you.

No we are not Arabs. Neither are the Egyptians or Palestinians. However all these Arab ā€œspeakingā€ countries can sense the genetic, cultural and linguistic similarities we share with them. We are not a langaab race and shouldnā€™t feel scared to join our greater ā€œmacro tribeā€ who so happen to all live within the borders of the Arab world excluding Ethiopia and Eritrea. The confusion happened when they decided to call these people ā€œArabsā€ instead of the Afro Asitiac world or something similar to it. Itā€™s like the French calling the European Union, ā€œgreater Franceā€. Other countries inside this union wouldnā€™t have that and neither should we. This is why I believe we should rename the Arab world and itā€™s citizens from Arab world and Arabs to something else thatā€™s more inclusive to all the people within its borders. I believe Ethiopia and Eritrea should join this union too. Heck it was literally only 3500 years ago when we were stationed at the borders of Egypt.
Would be cool if a Natufian council/league was established to counteract rival macro-groups, such as Iran, the Turkic council, Europeans/EU and a deeply integrated African Union.

It would basically be an Arab League 2.0, but without Comoros. Israel, Ethiopia and Eritrea would join this Natufian council.

I agree šŸ’Æ%.We need to join our relatives and form a macro group that can compete with these other giant groups across the globe. Pretending to be ā€œuniqueā€ and ā€œspecialā€ is how people with victim mentality think. Such people will stay langaab and side lined.

Notice how todays Arab world perfectly matches the Afro Asiatic language family.

Somalis don't even speak Arabic. And no, being influenced by them doesn't mean we are Arabic. Its like calling Berbers, Copts, Jews and Assyrians Arabic.

Tbh, Somalia is better off remaining an Arab state. Arab migrants should be encouraged to settle in Somalia to foster the transfer of skills/technical knowledge for development.

Somalia is part and parcel of the Arab-Islamic civilisation.
This nigga wants an arab elite class in Somalia like there is an Indian class in Kenya. Adoon ass behavior. Ana carabs yaad naga qabta

We are not arab speaking. Palestinians are descendants of Ismael like our Nabi.
1) I never said we were Arab speaking
2) Palestinians are not from Ismaeel. They are not even Arabian let alone Ismaeeli. They have few Arabian Bedouins in the Negev desert however the vast majority of urban Palestinian in Gaza , Israel and West Bank are native Canaanite stock.
