No matter how different our nationalities are, we're all human, right?

We're all humans. We walk upright, we talk, we pray, just not to the same god, or is it? God is god whomsoever you pray to. He just has different names and rules for different cultures. In all actuality, Man wrote all the religious books, not god. So it is mans rules we all follow, not his. As for being Arab, you my friend are my brother no matter what nationality you are. We are all brothers and sisters under all of the conflict you see and hear out there. Why can't we all just get along? Besides it's not the little people that start the trouble, it's the politicitions and rulers around the world. Go anywhere and talk to the common people and they want the same thing we want,peace.

All humans are humans, that is true. But if you look at human nature down through the ages, you see that humans always have to have people they think of as the "other" - which means to them, people that they can consider to be "not human" - and they can manipulate these people, or make slaves of them, or treat them badly. And all cultures have done this.

But why do you ask if Arabs are human?

The Arab culture is one of the oldest cultures [along with Chinese, Indian, and Mayan]. Arab scholars were into mathematics, astronomy, music, and literature thousands of years ago, long before Western Civilization existed, long before any of the modern religions of Islam and Christianity existed.

Chuckle, of course Arabs are human. I suspect your main objection here is culture & religion. Nationality has little to do with culture & many people of Arabic ancestry are indistinguishable from those in their adopted culture. You'd be surprised at the number of people of Arabic ancestry that were heavy contributers to Western Civilizations.

This question begs for a stupid answer imbedded in ignorance & racism. I don't need 10 points badly enough to answer the question the way the nitwit that gave me the thumbs down would like.

We're all human unfortunately. The beauty of our entire planet is that we as humans are lower than animals. You don't hear about a Three toed Sloth throwing racial slurs at Panda Bears. Or you don't hear about a Mongoose raping a Ferret. Animals kill out of instinct for food and/or survival. Humans do all of these things because they choose to.

Arabs are humans, and like all humans, we have the ability to be close-minded. Ideals are the owners alone. SO yeah. Also human.

Yes. Race is an invention. We are all human and share the same dna. Nationalities are just a way to show who we are supposed to "belong" to, an attempt to put us all into neat little boxes BUT people are people and it never reallly works.

Its not the nationalities that bother me. Heck its not even religion.
But its the mother "bleeping" idea that someone elses way of life is better than mine and so I have to change or I have to accommodate.

Sometimes I wonder about those that strap bombs to their children and send them to kill other children, and sometimes I wonder about those that would fly a jetliner into a building to kill those on board as well as thousands of others innocents. Sometimes I wonder about the humanity of those but overall I am sure Arabs care for their children and are as generous and giving as everyone else but clearly they need to clean their house of some of the world's worst scum or the rest of the world will be forced to do it for them.
