It is not enough to state these 22 lies. One has to state the reason for their perpetuation. Ask the people if they want Arab solidarity, believe in the Arab cause, engage the Arab dream, wish for the rise of the common Arab nation, understand the commonality of Arab interests across the Arab world, etc. The problem is not among the people, but across Arab leaders, state apparatuses, and complicit intellectuals. These, for geopolitical and personal interests, make truths into lies.
