Were there really many Nazis that left post war Europe for influential positions in Arab nations?

I watched a sensationalist documentary the other month about the connection between former Nazis, and anti-Israeli movements in post-WWII Arab nations. I'm hoping some less sensationalist experts could weigh in on this topic. It was on a Military Channel documentary that seemed to have a cheap History Channel level budget focusing on a narrow topic. It mentioned the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and Skorzeny working for Nassar & having training connections to Saddam & Ghadaffi. Everything else was pretty much "look at this compared to this" indirect correlational junk. (Like the Hamas mouse talks like Hitler & the Al-Qaeda hand book sounds like the Werwolfen handbook.) Is there any more direct & interesting connections to post-war Arab nations & Nazi influence?

As always, whenever Skorzeny is mentioned, assume that it's a lie. The man was a notorious liar and there is no proof of Skorzeny working with Nasser or any Middle Eastern leaders during this time. I've written an extensive post on this very question in the past which you can read here.
