Egypt is definitely Arabic, though Egyptian dialect differs much from the classical speech.

in Iran they hate it when you refer to them as arabs , they call themselfs persians , ......

the farsi they speak bears testimony to that , .....

btw , Israel and Iran have a special relationship when it comes to spare parts and military hardware , ....

How about Lebanon? They're arabs and have democracy, no? Also Tunisia?

One arab country where they haven't quite got the idea of democracy yet.

In Jordan King Abdullah still has the last word.

The biggest problems with the arab population in Israel is that, sadly, their politicans don't represent them well, and their local authorities are mired in corruption and scam.

Luckily, the country is not democratic.

[Saint Marcus]

blame that on the terrorists

Algeria is most certainly democratic. Only their war with the terrorists kinda screwed up that process.

Got I hate those bastards in Algeria. ( The terrorists). The most merciless bunch of mother****ers I've seen since the Nazis.
