The
Arab and non-Arab world.
Abu Arz
considers that what is referred to as the Arab World is a mere illusion without
any historical or geographical bases and constituents of nationalism... The
same applies to the so-called Arab Nation extending from the Ocean to the
Gulf because the peoples living in this area are people of different origin
and ethnic identity, and cannot be united despite all the efforts of the theoreticians
and the ideologists.
Arabity
is an ideological movement that seeks to drown the ethnic entities living
in these countries in a single nationality, that is the Arab nationality.
This movement has failed to achieve a single one of its objectives despite
the unionist attempts of Abdul Nasser in the fifties and sixties, and the
ventures of the Baath and other Arab unionist ideological parties.
Moreover, Abu Arz considers that Arabity constitutes a mortal threat to Lebanon, as do all the other movements that seek to connect Lebanon to its desert milieu: Baath, Syrian
Nationalism,
and all other similar parties. Trailing behind Arabity or drowning in it will
lead to the disappearance of Lebanon, the ravage of its identity, the obliteration
of its civilization and distinctive qualities and, finally, in the collapse
of the universal message Lebanon has carried throughout history.
Therefore,
Abu Arz considers that every country in the Middle East, including Israel,
must safeguard its identity and its nationality, to resist fiercely every
attempt at unification, coupling or joining, and at the same time to establish
a genuine peace based on the common recognition of the eternal right to exist
in security and freedom of thought and belief for every people while supporting
a civilized, cultural and economic interaction that would substantiate the
peace and stability in this troubled region of the world and repel the specters
of war and chronic feuds.
