Ok? Nobody uses the term arab as a racial designation in the middle east, everybody is aware of the differences between "arabs" from morroco to Egypt to Lebanon to Yemen. But denying the Arab cultural identify for "Greco-levantine" or "Phoenician" is pure post modern artificial nonsense. It's a pathetic reaction to the demonization of "arabs" in the western consciousness. Lebanese christians sucking up to the west is joked about everywhere.

There are no Arab Christians left

>> No.18793045

Lebanese are majority Levantine with traces from Arabia, Greece, Italy, Iran, Turkey. I don't think the majority are Arab, they are thier own particular group (Phonecian/Levantine) with admixture of surrounding regions. Im also Lebanese and my 23andme is 60% Levantine 20% Iranian 8% Italian 6% Arab.

His genetic data is probably that which he states, so i don't see all the hate he gets for identifying as such, because he is of a particular stock which is particular to where hes from in Lebanon.

There is an Arab'ness to the Lebanese people, being a sentiment that is expressed in various degrees within different groups. He definitely has an Arab'ness to him.
