'Arabism Equals Racism', in an elaborated article, Gerald A.
Honigman writes on the "acceptance of anyone else's political rights
in a multi-ethnic region that most Arabs see exclusively as "purely
Arab patrimony." That's the Arab-Israel conflict in a nutshell; but it
is also the core of the Arab-Berber, Arab-Kurd, Arab-Black African,
Arab-Copt, Arab-Assyrian, Arab-non-Arab Lebanese conflicts, as well,
among others. The Arabs' Anfal Campaign against the Kurds and their
actions in Darfur and the rest of the southern Sudan are just a few of
many examples of Arab genocidal actions against all who might
disagree."

Christians of Iraq site published an extensive historic account on
"The Foolishness of imposing Oppressive Arab Nationalism on Non Arabs,
Non-Arab Muslim minorities such as the Amazigh, or Berbers, Kurds, and
Turkmen found themselves officially out of favor. They faced the
prospect of becoming "Arabized" or of being denied political and even
civil rights. Groups that identified themselves as neither Arab nor
Muslim had it even worse: Southern Sudanese, Copts, Jews, and
Assyrians were plunged into a protracted nightmare that saw their
communities ground into anonymity, forcing many to emigrate
permanently. Even Maronites, whose retention of political power in
Lebanon immunized them from utter marginalization, watched with alarm
as Arab nationalist propaganda increasingly portrayed them as a
foreign and sinister element in the heart of the Arab nation."

Adel Makhoul wrote in May 1, 2005 about Pan-Arabists: Hiding Arab Racism, that they're agents of racism: Arab Racism, that always supported Arab unity and "Islam" at the expense of non-Arab and non-Moslem peoples and tries to deflect the world's attention from Arab and Moslem attrocities committed against Christians, Kurds, Jews, Israelis, Coptic Christians, non-Arab Sudanese, etc. he also points to the fact that Sadam Hussein's poisoning of the Kurds has never been condemned by one Arab intellectual or leader. This is because a racist prevalent attitude in the Arab mind is that the entire Middle East should be Arab. This also explains the attitude towards Israel, a country that is predominantly non-Moslem and speaks a Middle Eastern language other than Arabic.[7 http://www.amazon.com/review/R1FZS0RYTC94JP] Michael Totten decries the tired Arab nationalist myth that Arabism protects Christians.

After all, there are 1.2 million Arabs living as citizens of Israel in the one Jewish country in the world, while there are only a handful of Jews living in any of the 22 Arab countries. In fact, in Jordan and Saudi Arabia, not only is it illegal for Jews to be citizens, they are not even allowed to live there.

AGAINST JEWS
Pan-Arabism's anti-Jewish ideology
The champion of pan-Arabism, Egypt's Gamal Abdel Nasser, used the infamous anti-Semitic Protocols of the Elders of Zion libel in his war against Israel. [http://www.newstatesman.com/200212020013] Both pan-Arabism and pan-Islamic ideologies looked to Hitler's Germany as a model Haj Amin al-Husseini expressed his admiration for the way 'the Germans have definitively solved the Jewish problem,' [30 http://www.science.co.il/arab-israeli-conflict/Articles/Ettinger-2003-08-16.asp] & Gamal Abdel Nasser's affinity for the Mufti was great [31 http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/946831.html], Joachim Wurst describes the emergence and psychological mechanisms of modern anti-Semitism and particularly of genocidal Islamist anti-Semitism.

1800's & 1920's.
The origin of anti-Jewish feelings among Arabs do not originate from what they preceive as 'the occupation of Palestine' and the creation of Israel. Even before the creation of the Israeli state in 1948 on what was previously part of the Syrian segment of the Ottoman Empire -- a largely uninhabited terrain -- many Jews were recorded attacked in various settlements by Arabs since the late 1800's [33 http://www.ou.org/about/judaism/bhyom/mar.htm.
The first recorded Arab attack on Jews in Palestine was back in 1886 in Petach Tikva [http://www.strategypage.com/military_history_apr.asp] [http://www.davidsconsultants.com/jewishhistory/history?letter=j] [http://www.frumkin.org.il/newsl02.htm] [http://www.yaleisraeljournal.com/summ2006/krug.php].
Racism in Arabism was already strong in the 1920's, Dr. Kaveh Farrokh explains that to understand the awkwardness (and indeed irrationality) of pan-Arabism (or any form of racialism), one is compelled to also briefly learn about the true founders of the B'aath party: Michel Aflaq and Salah al-Din al-Bitar. Both were born in Damascus, they formed their party on the basis of pan-Arabism, like the movements that had taken place in neighboring Iraq in the 1920s. Another influential and French (Sorbonne) educated Syrian, was Zaki al-Arsuzi. Al-Arsuzi was especially outspoken in his racism against the local Turks of Syria and especially venomous in his hatred against the Jews. [34 [http://www.venusproject.com/ecs/aFarrokhArab.html] He proves that Pan-Arabism is an extremely racist and chauvenistic movement on par with Nazism, whose ideology is anti-western, anti-Jewish and anti-Persian.

Current Middle-Eastern Racism against Jews
On Syria's Baathism's racism [38 http://www.michaeltotten.com/archives/000779.html] Major ideas of Baathism center around racism and anti-Semitism. The Baath party stems from the Pan-Arab movement [39 [http://www.jamestown.org/terrorism/news/article.php?issue_id=2878], examples: Syrian Daily Al Baath, October 21, 1998 had an antisemitic cartoon, and on October 21, 1998 on Syrian TV: In these days, all of us, Arabs and Muslims, must stand together against the Jews [40 [http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/anti-semitism/syrmedia.html].
Egypt has played the gross anti-Jewish TV extravaganza "Horse without Horseman" which also portrays the Arab/Israeli conflict in an antisemitic anti-Jewish format [41 http://www.debka.com/article.php?aid=191].

But anti-semitism knows no borders. The ADL's documents antisemitic attacks wordlwide [46 http://adl.org/main_Anti_Semitism_International/Default.htm], the larger portion of those listed since 2002 (to 2008) were attributed to Arabs, especially those in Europe.

ANTI-PERSIAN
Dr Kaveh Farrokh wrote a must-read historic account, "Pan-Arabism's Legacy of Confrontation with Iran," which centers on Arab racism against Iranians.[http://www.venusproject.com/ecs/aFarrokhArab.html and also in http://www.iran-heritage.org/interestgroups/history-article2.htm], It points out that it was in Saddam Hussein's Iraq that Arab racism attained its most vulgar form, truly on par with the neo-Nazi philosophies of today's white supremacists. "...the (Saddam) government offered 'pure Iraqis' married to anyone with Iranian blood $2500 reward for anyone divorcing them" Farrokh notes that "Negative portrayals of Iranians continue to appear today in Arab media and education: the recent caricature portrayal of Iranians by the Al-Jazeera Television network is one recent example that is truly lamentable. Arabs have complained (with justification) that they are portrayed negatively in western press, media and education, yet so many in the Arab world are unaware of the Husri-Shawkat-Aflaq legacy of racism within their own ranks." The Arabization of Persian contributions was strong by the 1960s. Farrokh also points out the amateur scholarship of such writers as Fareed Zakaria, who, because of their access today to the print media and T.V., can spread unchallenged misinformation.
