This anger goes all the way back:

11 And the angel of the Lord said to her,

“Behold, you are pregnant
and shall bear a son.
You shall call his name Ishmael,[c]
because the Lord has listened to your affliction.
12 He shall be a wild donkey of a man,
his hand against everyone
and everyone’s hand against him,
and he shall dwell over against all his kinsmen.”

(Genesis 16:11-12)

[Eleutheria5]

Did Hagar fondle little Ishmael’s wee wee, too?

It all goes back to “the BOOK”.

[Cronos]

Ishmael is truly only the ancestor of the Nejd Arabs (or "true" Arabs) - those from the area around Mecca and Medina

Egyptians are not truly these Arabs, nor are people from the Maghreb or Syria or Iraq. The Syrians and Iraqis are Semitic yes, but descendents of earlier Semitic incursions. The Maghreb people are a mix of Berber, Greek and other European and Arab.
