Four points I have for Adelle: 1- Genetics is irrelevant to history. If we make it relevant, we'd be indulging in Nazi-like pseudoscience of nations built on common biological (size of skull and shape of nose) instead of sociological and historical traits. 2- I'm not making the Druze anything. Unlike mainstream history, I believe that the Arabic language (and culture) originated in the Hawran area (not in the Arabian Peninsula) and expanded north to the Bekaa Valley and south through Jordan to northwest Saudi Arabia. One of the oldest inscriptions in Nabateo-Arabic, or proto-Arabic or Old Arabic, is the epitaph of the famous Arab history character Imru' Al-Qais, from the year XXX (some XXX years before Islam started), describing him as the king of all the Arabs. Where was the epitaph found? In Namara, in the vicinity of Druze territory in southern Syria. 3- Check out the video in my post. Everything in it is authentic Arab: The headdress of some men, the beat, the Pride Genre, the dance, the language. The Arab culture is neither ethnic nor religious. Arab predates Islam. That's why as the Muslim Ottoman Empire was about to collapse, non-Muslim Ottomans started promoting an Arab identity as a bigger tent than Islam. Arab nationalist ideologues at the time, almost exclusively non-Arab, could not win traction for their invented ideology, and therefore had to build it on Islam, which they tried to secularize (both Aflaq and Zureiq tried doing so). 4- I understand that the Druze consider their faith to predate all cultures and languages (including Arabic and Islam), but most Druze do view their heritage as Arab (as opposed to other minorities that don't, such as Christians, who characterize theirs as Aramaic Syriac or Western).
