These describe different things. For the Arab League (founded 1945 by six members: Egypt, Iraq, Transjordan/Jordan, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Syria):

- "Coordinate political goals among six Arab nations." — True. The League was created to coordinate policies and strengthen cooperation among the founding Arab states.
- "Fight for independence from European colonialism." — Largely true. Defending sovereignty and supporting anti‑colonial/independence movements was an important part of its early mission.
- "Bring Western ideas and traditions to the Middle East." — False. The League’s purpose was regional Arab cooperation and independence, not to promote Westernization.
- "Search for oil and other resources in the Arabian world." — False as a stated founding goal. Natural resources became geopolitically important later, but resource exploration was not the League’s explicit purpose.
