Why Arabs Lose Wars mef

Arabic-speaking armies have been generally ineffective in the modern era. .... Why this unimpressive record? There are many factors—economic, ideological, technical—but perhaps the most important has to do with culture and certain societal attributes which inhibit Arabs from producing an effective military force. ....

Conclusion: It would be difficult to exaggerate the cultural gulf separating American and Arab military cultures. .... For these qualities depend on inculcating respect, trust, and openness among the members of the armed forces at all levels, and this is the marching music of modern warfare that Arab armies, no matter how much they emulate the corresponding steps, do not want to hear.
