Wikipedia says the second most populous ethnic group is Arabs at 450 million people but it includes a bunch of Arabized MENAs who are not ethnically Arab
Do all MENAs consider themselves Arabs?

Only Bedouins are ethnically Arab
Hudson Allen
no only tribal people and the families that descended from Arabian tribes are
Thomas Reyes
everyone who accepts God is arab.
David Stewart
"Arab" is an elastic and ultimately meaningless term. Many people here don't consider themselves Arab (leaving the native Berber-speakers aside as those aren't Arab by any definition of the term).
Logan Jones
No, we consider ourselves Berber with very small amounts of Arabian mixed in among other ethnicities like Turkish and sub Saharan .
Grayson Ortiz
It's not meaningless it's a label for a well defined ethnicity native to the Arabian pensinula.
Jonathan Lopez
>"Arab" is an elastic and ultimately meaningless term
to you because you are not ethnically arab and like to call yourself that for fun
you absolutely dont respect it and wish the worse for the concept of an arab
thats why it makes me seethe hard becaue most people who are called arabs are not and have no respect for arabs.
Hudson Garcia
Wikipedia is a joke sometimes
Caleb Myers
That's not how anyone uses it today, that's why I said it's elastic as the meaning expands over time.
I don't call myself Arab, you're insulting me.

Language has a lot do with ethnicity
Christopher Martinez
not in this case though since the early islamic empires infoced arabic as the language of the state and so many people started talking arabic as they converted to islam
Adam Peterson
Fuck no, a proud assyrian would never call themselves an ar*b
Parker Evans
Wikipedia is based. Your'e just a bitch
Blake Carter
That's like how Barbarians adopted Romans culture and language and started calling themselves Roman.
This is common.
Kayden Garcia
This.
Fuck you Zhang.

Jonathan Powell

Jacob Barnes
Yes according to Wikipedia Somalis are ethnic Arabs.
But Indonesians are not part of the Arab world? Not even Turks are
Ryder Hernandez
They don't speak an offshoot of Arabic, what's your point?

No such thing.
