You said There are lots of black African tribes who proudly call themselves Arabs and I welcome them as part of the Arab nation oh ya like the black African tribes of Darfur are welcomed as part of the Arab nation We already know how Arab nationalism works there s no need for the painful reminder Is it any wonder many of the most prominent and popular Egyptians have disassociated themselves from Arabism from Naguib Mahfouz to Osama Anwar Okasha to Taha Hussein to Akkad and many more At least so many Egyptians now are finally coming to their senses
