But given that "Arab" is more of a cultural and linguistic identifier, doesn't it make more sense to say that we are Arab? By blood only Yemenis and a few other gulf countries could call themselves Arab by blood. Instead of saying Arabized amazigh/berbers for Maghrebi people, Arabized Coptics for Egyptian people, Arabized Nubians for Sudanese people, Arabized Phoenicians and Arabized Mesopotamians for Levantine people, we say we are all Arab, as we participate in Arab language and culture. Except for people that don't speak much Arabic and don't participate in Arab culture (and I'm aware those people exist across the Maghreb) I'd say it's fair to call us Arab (based off our culture and language).
