1001 Nights from Chaco, Argentina

I had to remove a video stream which was taken down.

The Chaco Province is in Argentina’s almost tropical north, yet there was enough of an Arab population in 2013 to support a radio show called Las Mil y Una Noches (1,0001 Nights) which broadcast Arab Music to the Internet and to Chaco.

It was an internet set up; and it was only about 14 shows, but it had some viewers. At that time, it was on USTREAM, which has since been bought out by IBM. The show played to a small niche market, but it showed that even in a relatively poorer, rural province, Argentina has an Arab population.

These Arabs in Latin America could be a force for peace.

They are assimilated, and Westernized; yet obviously have enough Arab identification that they could be a bridge between the Arab world and the West.

Why is our American government doing nothing to reach out to them?
