Arab European League
[edit]This is a list of flags used in the Arab World. So what is a flag of the Arab European League, an organisation active in Belgium and the Netherlands, doing here?Jeff5102 (talk) 07:54, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
Arabs?
[edit]Somalis are not Arab. We don't consider ourselves Arab. we don't speak Arabic. We don't have an Arab culture. We are Somali. simple as that Someone65 (talk) 21:17, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
- Somalia is a member of the Arab League, which is the "objective" criterion for inclusion in lists about the Arab World in WP; the Arab League let Somalia in because Arabic is (or rather was) a second official language of the state and because there are some cultural links between Somalia and more certainly Arab countries (particularly Yemen). It's somewhat idiotic (I speak as an Egyptian, and one who actually does identify as Arab, at that), but the rules are the rules. Lockesdonkey (talk) 17:48, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
About Somalia
[edit]Somalia's inclusion in 1 organisation should not classify it as an "Arabic" nation; Only about 10% of Somalia is arabic, the country doesn't speak Arabic, nor even use the Arabic Script. 🤓 WeaponizingArchitecture | scream at me 🤓 12:11, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
