It was formed in response to anti-Arab sentiment from rival gangs; the movement's goal was to protect the Arab-American community from being attacked in racially motivated assaults precipitated by the First Gulf War.[1][2] Their gang colors are white and red.[3] The gang symbol is a five pointed star.[3] References1. ^National Gang Crime Research Center :http://www.ngcrc.com/ngcrc/page12.htm {{Organized crime groups in America}}{{Organized crime groups in Chicago}}2. ^{{cite book|author=Lawrence M.
