Deskripsi
Pan-Arabism has not succeeded as an ideology so far, but it is not to say that all of its variants have failed altogether. The ideological clarity desired by such a vision is simply not present, for, even amongst its founders, there is a clash and a severe variance over who does and can refer to themselves as an Arab. Strong political Will has also been lacking. An effective sense of brotherhood can actually be forged only when there is continued stability in the Arab world. Under the current conditions Pan-Arabism will continue to shimmy along like a fire on a torch since neither Zionist occupation nor American subservience is about to die out soon.
