Most Arabs aint considered Asian.. Morocco,Algeria,Tunisia,Libya & Egypt are all in North Africa but we don't identify ourselves as African. Instead, we think of ourselves as Middle Eastern/Arab. The same goes for Palestine, Lebanon and Syria, that are in Western Asia as they identify themselves as Middle Eastern/Arab, not Asian. As for Iraq, I would say that although Iraq is in an Asian continent, you speak Arabic and have Arab culture... Remember, maps are man made!
