Here is a definition for those full of hatery towards Arabs. These are the facts: Arabs are the people who discover algorithmics (all computer science is based on algorithmics), first to perform a surgery on patient, invented the number zero, invented astronomy and cartography (maps), etc etc etc. While you could find 10000 books (on paper) in the libraries of Baghdad in the 7th century, you would be happy to find 5 books in europe (Arabs introduced the paper to europe). Read about their history and then you will never say a thing about Arabs.
Avicen, Averros, Beh Khaldoun, Ghazali, etc etc are some of the names that marked Arab civilization, a civilization that lasted 8 centuries. When Arabs were writing math and astronomy formulas, your primitive ancestors were wondering around in european forrests killing each other.
