I didn't see the question dotcom. Well as for Arab nationalism it really isn't much the people can say or do about such things. Although it garnered large support all over the region, a lot of gulf arab leaders were threatened by it because it was all about 'sharing the wealth' but at the same time they did not want to be perceived as not being for the Arab cause.

All this stems from the whole issue with israel and trying to unite to defeat them for the humiliation they suffered. It's all politics and the model of governance was more akin to that of the Soviet union and not capitalism.
