NO. The Carthaginians were not Arabs since they were a mix of indigenous North Africans or Amazigh (Berbers), Black Africans from the Interior, and the Phoenician Traders who built the city. While the Phoenicians are from what is now Lebanon, Syria, and Israel, they were not Arab as the Arabs at that point in history lived only in Arabia. Since Amazigh are not Arab, Africans are not Arab, and Phoenicians are not Arab, any mix of the three in any ratio would not be Arab.
