that's wrong - it's ignorant and it's false.
there were no arabs anywhere outside of the desert until about the year 700 and the society they built on the top of the roman-persian wars and the devastation of the plague was wiped out by the mongols and the turks.
the current civilization in the middle east is barely 100 years old. it cannot be traced back before the first word war.
the area has a history of repeated collapse because their religion is horrifically destructive. i don't know if it's cultural or genetic, but religion constantly destroys everything in the region, and the current period will be no different.
the reality is that no society or culture in the region has lasted more than 200 years since the fall of the sumerians. it's been constant war over god ever since, and they've been constantly targeted by outsiders and wiped out because they've constantly been arrogant shitheads to everybody else, which is no less true now than ever.
if the americans got up and left, they'd be killing each other again in five minutes.
