Contrary to what Arab intellectuals and politicians believe, Arabs are capable of illustrating their problems, setting their priorities, and openly outline their political and value biases. Their aspirations for democracy have become vibrant. They are now capable of identifying the threats to their homeland without any ambiguity. In this, the Arab public, frankly, outshines its political and cultural elite. It is reformulating the questions which it has been asking for decades and insisting on, though they are merely a product of their perceptions.
