To 4 years of bitter conflict. Known as the great war. All the war to end all wars. Its grim the trains war for. The took with europe the main fear took long. But this was a war fought on many fronts. So theres another story rarely told. Of huge importance during the war. Kind of lasting significance. The story of troops who fault and died but who are often forgotten. And of an outcome that shaped the middle east of today. This is gold more one through our local high. Money to reeky its an izzy and writer and broadcaster is taking us on a personal journey across a dozen countries. His grandfathers generation fault in the war. So far hes looked at the contributions made by arab north african troops conscripted by the british and French Colonial powers in north africa. And how and why the Ottoman Empire joins germany in the war. Pitting its our troops against their muslim brothers fighting for the allies. And as alterman fortunes declined how the europeans russians and the arabs look to fill the power vacuum. Is from Michael Jordan mario on a day out of the money out of a good many of the libya the lead a lot of the talk at this hour my guitar watching. In this episode he sees how the shape of a new middle east was decided in secret by british and french diplomats if you look at a map at the beginning of the war you have an Ottoman Empire that ruled over us tiny sliver of europe all of the anatolian peninsula southwestern asia parts of north africa parts of the Arabian Peninsula at the end of the war thats got. How britain made separate promises to 3 different Interest Groups that were all incompatible with each other according to the Hussein Macmahon correspondence palestine belong to an arab state according to sex because. Agreement palestine was going to be internationalized according to the Balfour Declaration was going to go to the jews so how do you square that circle. And how this colonial selfinterest blew away the nationalist hopes of millions of arabs for postwar independence. This is why i call the center of power from way out of the British Imperial establishment decided to destroy their own of the allies the other main empire and create a new order in the end of easts. The arabs are still living with the consequences to this very day. Almost as soon as the ultimate empire joined the war in november 1914 the european allies began staking their claims. In march 1950 russia announced it wanted istanbul and the straits linking the black sea to the mediterranean. France accepted russias claim and set out its own plans. They wanted the southeast Turkish Coast and greater syria. Then in june 1915 britain announced it wanted the whole western coast of the arabian gulf plus all of mesopotamia. Britain also wanted to control a strip of land from there to haifa in which to build a railway it would give them an alternative route to india and one day might carry gulf oil to. The british already had serious interest the Ottoman Empire theyd already up like egypt had already moved to the gulf states they already had interests in southern mesopotamia they are. He had oral interests in the gulf so the war suddenly brought all of this then right to the forefront. So in order to achieve this between 115 and 970 britain entered into 3 separate agreements which all conflicted with one another. One with the same bin ali the sharif of mecca to give him an arab state in return for leading a revolt against the ultimates. Another with the Zionist Movement to create a Jewish National home in palestine. And a secret pact with its own told ally france to divide the levant and mesopotamia between them dont sit. There dont want to follow this su they said. Well as on. The people dont imply one would die notice of the anti of security by any sponsor a security level does that. Even if meet their own little. While the british were still negotiating with sorry for cenovus potential revolt in 1915 they and france appointed delegates to draw up this secret deal for dividing up ottoman territory. The french were represented by shell francois pico the former consul general in beirut. And the british by the governments middle east advisor so mark sykes. Sykes was from a wealthy english family whose country home was here thats led me a house in yorkshire he had a privileged upbringing and was taken on a trip to egypt when he was 11. His knowledge of the middle east had been picked up by writing religion and travel books. Those sites like the Prime Minister to think he was an expert in fact he spoke neither turkish nor arabic. Speaker was a french lawyer turned diplomat whod spent several years in beirut and was a staunch supporter of french interests abroad. Though they paid lip service to independence for the arab provinces of the Ottoman Empire the ambitions of their respective countries where their real priorities is never the case the people assume the people i said mark sykes and other british and french policymakers. Disingenuous in their support for the idea of National Freedom in the middle east at base it was just frankly a lie that they were sincere in their support for this idea of a new era of National Freight and because how could they be when they had their own very clear british french imperial objectives in the middle east. At this stage this was a paper exercise dependent on the course of the war. During the buttons moon of the century doubly mons. And also to be the monkey that when it was you make it about. There it was the open there it was hardly dont call could be lives are made on. Us and joy is a year the montane expedition point. Is 8 and they should. Be today. Liza me it is a 1000000. Dollar the little it well listen shows you did it on tape but i sit on the time with them or see. Some cans on the sheriff who say they dont make him a little present. On the. Hunt. Just one. Day when they want to harm. The poor mad and always. A world away from the arab provinces at the heart. British government in london so mark sykes prepared for his negotiations with george pico he told british Prime Minister howard asked with i should like to draw a line from the easy in exile to the last k. Into coke. And face to face with a source pico thats precisely what he did. He called it practical politics. The psychs pekoe agreement was concluded in a tobar 916 russia supported it on condition that its own claims to autumn and territory were accepted by britain and france. Sikes pico drew the map of the middle east in red and blue. The red zone mt the province of baghdad in which the british would have the right to establish such direct or in directed ministration or controlled as they desire. The blue zone covered silesia and the syrian coast where france would have the same rights britain also claimed informal control over an area of northern a rabia from kirkuk to gaza. The french claimed the same informal control over a triangle from mosul to aleppo and damascus. This deal was what the palestinian writer George Antonius later called a startling piece of double dealing. In june 1960 sorry for saying the start of the arab revolt against the ottomans fulfilling his part of his deal with the british. Only 4 months later 6 people was signed contradicting the british pledge to the arab people. What we have to realize though is that what we see is jew play city was actually explained by their ideas of the people of the region at the time and it roots of this was their racial outlook at the british policy making elite at the time the 1st of all they assumed that these people couldnt possibly believe for a moment that when the british and french talked of National Freedom and that it actually meant political independence that would have been a completely crazy idea to their minds because of their racial conviction. That the arab world was backward and to a lesser degree the jewish world to. The psychs pekoe deal remained of british french and russian secret for a year. But after the Russian Revolution in november 1917 the bolsheviks took russia out of the war the new leaders lenin and trotsky soon discovered that the saddest government had supported the psychs people agreement. The communist daily newspaper prophet or broke the story of the 3 european allies deception to the world. Following the viewed evolutionally governments decision to extract russia from the war but of the published what might be its only a great explosive in november 1917 and other directions of both lenin and trotsky it prevented the details of the secret sites because the green and thus the soviets uncovered europes imperial plans to divide the middle east between britain and france. The cats was out of the bag but difficult to believe it had little Immediate Impact on the course of the war or on the arab world. All that really mattered now was military conquest boots on the ground politicians could make whatever deals they liked but occupation was 9 tenths of the law from the red sea to turkey. The entire region from. 2 to the tourist mountains was occupied they were occupied because they were crucially important to british were. More amps because of suez because of egypt because of iraq to india because of the oil fields and and that iran and mesopotamia because of the attritional states around the gulf all these were crucial british or aims from the very beginning. But now what to do with all this all the pied land the answer new states whether or not they respected ethnic religious or tribal borders. Not only did so mark sykes draw lines on the maps his artistic skills were put to further use. It is the ultimate. Mark cites a man so many verses he detested in the arab east should be responsible for the design of the flags the symbols of National Sovereignty of so many arab countries jordan iraq syria sudan kuwait yemen the emirates even the p. L. O. The palestine liberation organization. Sykes deal with pekoe was never formally enacted on the ground but it did bear a close resemblance to the way the british Prime Minister and french president carved things up at the end of the war. The partition was a fact of occupation and then the british and the french negotiated and clemenceau and lloyd george themselves negotiated probably in a taxi between Victoria Station and and 10 downing street when clemenceau arriving in london and in december of 1918 so it was completely casual and resisted and opposed by virtually everyone in the region. So mark sykes died soon after the war aged 13. 9 he cast a long shadow across the arab world especially palestine. On the psychs because now it was colored brown an area under International Administration yet to be decided. Of britains 3 wartime promises the one made by foreign minister author balfour proved the most enduring and controversial. Can of ma that cycle a one was. Going to be a lot of land with up to 4 when as she has you want to show any of her side by telling her mom or her while its allure. About the ballot for. There were many reasons for baal for his promise after centuries of and he semitism in russia and europe jews had started to settle in palestine. The Jewish Nationalist movement zionism was gaining momentum its leader was a russian born chemistry professor in manchester called shyam vitamin. A vitamin process for producing acetone fed britains wartime munitions production and his notoriety enabled him to lobby the British Government to support a Jewish National home in palestine. In june 1917 vitamine and the jewish banker and politician Walter Rothschild met Arthur Balfour in london to request a formal declaration of support for zionism 5 months later came his reply. On the 2nd of November Balfour wrote to rothschild to say that the government viewed with favor the establishment in palestine of a National Home for the jewish people and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this project. This is the famous Balfour Declaration the letter of the foreign secretary up of bad percent in november mighty 17 to laud the rothschilds as at the 1st of what is the bad for decoration meant that one nation promised to the 2nd nation the country of a 3rd. What is extraordinary is that this letter was not that it by balfour or his stuff instead it was drafted for him by high in vitamin the future president of israel. I think if were trying to understand the British Imperial establishment relationship its on its in from the time of the 1st of all that its actually a key that we recognize the significance of the bible and British Culture so that they narratives of zionism as the ancient jewish nation and the landscape with the by returning to its former glory days was an idea that was not overly familiar to many people in britain by the time of the 1st well or but remained tickers well. There were also wider strategic reasons for supporting zionism. Jewish influence was strong in the government to britains new war ally the United States under president Woodrow Wilson. 2 of Woodrow Wilsons top advisors Felix Frankfurter on the one hand and Louis Brandeis on the other hand were ardent zionists now the british were very suspicious of Woodrow Wilson although the United States had already entered the war and the british were also very suspicious of the huge amount of german and german immigrants in the end states and irish immigrants in the United States that were opposed to britain and the British Empire so what they wanted to do was somehow get the United States to make sure the United States stayed on board in the 1st world world war and what that of course entailed was making sure that Woodrow Wilsons top advisers kept on pushing him giving him a goal or giving them a goal to fight for to the bitter end. And the other power the british wanted to keep happy was russian. The idea that the british thought most that many of the bolsheviks had jewish backgrounds behind trustees real name was bronstein after all and what the british thought once you scratch these people underneath the really jewish so therefore what weve got to do is weve got to give. Then something that will a piece of them to make sure that they would stay in the war and fight to the bitter end as well didnt quite work out that way. And just as mark sykes had called his approach to negotiating with the french as practical politics there was good old british pragmatism. The idea of having a jewish colony somewhere to the north of the suez canal the british were in egypt in the suez canal and in the north you would have a jewish colony that would be very dependent on the british and of course the main british strategic odd goal was to protect the route to india. Lloyd george and the people around him sat down and thought to themselves its a cost us if it doesnt cost us anything it might have some benefit why dont we just do it little did they know how much it was going to end up cost. And still to come the arab aid for independence from ultimate rule shareef scenes revolt general but often. What but a move initiative for saying fuck up and yet as i hear it come. The idea of the mandate the league of nations time for continued foreign rule over again under the facade of that. The old uncle took that set luna will go with a blog a set of rules see a little bed with something that these are the love with the open.

In 191516 the war in europe was bloody silis and im going to take. The british and french were down in the trenches against a stubborn germany. But it was a different kind of war in the middle east. Britain strategy was to capitalize on growing Arab Nationalist feeling against for centuries of ultimate rule. Carolina and the hold up with the minute the. Became at the edge government. Out of a every dimension. They in a woman assuring united in village a ship with a stone the walk i dont know and you have thought about what i will want to show you of which i am and yet if i were. In 1915 the british high commissioner in cairo so Henry Mcmahon began negotiating an alliance with my same benali the shah of mecca an exchange of letters took place between mcmahon and hussein about the possibility of joining some sort of revolt against the ottomans. The result of that was that the british promised should be for sane and his sons gold and guns and an arab state or states to be founded after the war was over and in return for that they would declare war on the ottomans. The same was also the choice of arab the secret resistance groups. That i threw in the water and the teeth that go in the palate on all our face on the inner as i behave what that you have. And mike was that the way lady he way when he applied for a while but had to have them over what kind of a row and you have dealt with that were well on your own but theyll be out there on a bit. But it was far from simple. All of this maneuvering was going on at the same time as the british and french representatives mock psychs. Pekoe for carving up the middle east between the. Sheriff was saying dreamt of a great arab state to include the levant from the egyptian border up to the torres mountains in turkey. Plus all of mesopotamia to the border in the north and the whole of the Arabian Peninsula except for the british colony of aden. Kind of leader how do you. And i know how can i say leave you as youve been out of. Your door the. Iraqis in iran who are not much wanted to clean. Now i can beat up on you know i did that and now so fucked up for him he made much i did ok for that would i have had the advantage that any i could go to any kind of a could but i know who last about how to do another record or not muslim how to do a minute about. Britain weighed up the benefits and agreed to sorry for seems to minds. For his part the same called for an arab uprising against the ultimate on the 5th of june 916. 00. The hashemite forces under the command of hussein son feisal mobilized. From their bases they attacked the ottoman supply line to his us railway. They found the arab tribesmen of transjordan a tough nut to crack the 5th. The line here today at alcatraz is near the jordanian town of mon a tribal stronghold that the husham ites were never able to capture. Before the war the his on israel way had been a way for arabs here to travel from alcatraz to new destinations 100 years on the trains dont stop here anymore. With. One feisal as hashemites moved north in 1918 and formed a Pincer Movement with general allen based british divisions in palestine they were able to take damascus on the 2nd of october. The big battles were occurring in europe this was the right flank of an army that was invading north from egypt up the coast of the mediterranean eventually to end up in aleppo. After taking greater sin. Area faisal felt he did cheat his objective and fully expected the british to deliver on their promises. Ottoman rule of the levant was at an end and in a month a war would be over. The armistice was signed on the 11th of november 1800. The arabs who fought for the victorious allies thought it was payback time they expected sovereignty and independence. That was how it was understood in the arab world the real problem for the region is that although the British Government unleashed this idea to the genie after the bottle of the idea of National Freedom the pritish understanding and certainly the french understanding of what National Freedom would mean for the region is very very different from how it was conceived across the region itself. First to react it was egypt. Its people had paid a high price for supporting the british. Of the 1200000 men deployed in different roles in world war one battlefield 500000 perished. A few months after the war ended the egyptian politician and statesman sods are google asked the british high commissioner if he could lead a delegation to the paris peace conference he wanted to negotiate the gyptian independence the rule and his supporters try to put pressure on the king to taint their relationship with the bridge the king has a respect within hours the ordinary egyptians but at that stage that respect has disappeared why because of the. Lost of egyptians in the war with the economy come if occasion on the people of the life all of this actually creating the wider gap between. The king and the egyptian people which faceted the efforts of sides of the road to why do they got more and more with that with a king and with the brits because they wanted to make sure that british has no place in egypt after what happened in the 1st world war. The british arrested some glue and his companions in march 1919 and exiled them to malta. Egypt exploded into revolution. Faced with my civil disobedience the british released sugru and allowed him to travel to paris. But when he arrived he was devastated to learn that the british protectorate over egypt had already been recognised. Because the allies sit down in paris afterwards and it should be pretty easy to hammer out some sort of peace on press virtually impossible theres just too many contradictory agreements which is why they had to start again from scratch. And one of the agreements was with the hashemites prince faisal also travel to the site in the hope of achieving his familys goal of a greater arab state. But a united arabia was the last thing the allies wanted. And the arabs would now learn a new term mandate. The effect that i have just an idea when i can that tell you i mean did that either or and not do and im going to be a. One man at the end when im here and know who will be how do you show what that leave me. Enough to have been if you have. Got to be cut out of. That that you know well done why you nominate german. But they had to do it. Into their head again and where youve been. Here how you and i had a little below that out of what my. Are you going to be. Up one. Faisals disappointment in a vast side didnt stop him from seizing his opportunity. In damascus in march 1920 he declared the syrian arab kingdom as an independent state with himself as king. Of lebanon enoch doctor had to look like well not so long and slowly i was unlucky when i was riding with. Herman and myself from going to mislead me again. And. Having to ask every. English when i look at them i said all. Vitals declaration of an independent state was the deal he had with the british. But the french with sykes pekoe heavily in mind had very different ideas. On the 24th of july 920. 00 a small force of arab volunteers gathered at may saloon to try to stop the french army reaching damascus. But the french troops routed the Arab Nationalists and swept on to the syrian capital. King faisel fled to london the 1st independent arab state the kingdom of syria lasted less than 4 months. The French Occupation of syria turned into a mandate in 1922 and lasted until 1936 with all the problems it entailed and which i still felt today. Into double frenzy beijing this year in the way that if the reality we go in there is only a. Mess. Then while that. Sounds like a disk on that and live from edina you might think with all. That messy hey you know i dont mean. Who by they did finance a loon how to have an ultra. We know nothing as a 2nd that could not miss the needle myself i leaned on tuck at. The french mandate also had a big impact on lebanon. That ceased an example if im going to be built i would get basically bare ollies about that responded the 2nd shouldst at the human into debbi finance and with what sort of think it will myself believe be it again but the thought that as this movie unless it is the need for a system home a business a move to troubles that as a woman do beset me well and into. And i that one of my 15 people that i was young with if you will in less happy. One than it was able to as. The religious and ethnic divisions created by the french mandate in the 19 twenties and thirties have had a lasting effect on both syria and lebanon. Leading to a string of internal and cross border conflicts in both countries. The problems experienced in the past 3 decades in iraq also date back to the british mandate. In march 1917 British Forces captured baghdad ending ottoman rule in mesopotamia 3 years later in april 1920 the league of nations assigned iraq to britain as a formal mandate they had interest of iraq because they have also stood in the presence in the gulf as well and in south of iraq so basically they have a good knowledge about whats happening in iraq and they build a strong relations with the tribes in iraq in the light of whats happening basically and the failure of the liver to the arabs and stablish with socalled as they and the hashemite basically have good linkage with arab nationalism in iraq all of this together help to mobilize people and i have 1900 of illusion. In maine 1920 the iraqis a mix of kurds sunny our robes and shia began peaceful protests in baghdad. The british arrested the leaders. And sponsored filings confrontation. They then crushed the iraqi oil pricing with overwhelming force. 2200. 00 british and indian soldiers were killed. But around 8 and a half 1000 iraqis were killed or wounded. By now many arabs were starting to look back on ultimate rule as preferable to being under the british and french mandates. That arab people believe that they could seek greater ties with the turkish people because most arab people saw the turks as fellow muslims who are fighting a similar issue european occupation. But the defeated autumn ones were also facing a changed world. 5 countries occupied parts of present day turkey. The treaty of 7 near paris in august 1920 laid out the allies harsh postwar terms. The turks turned to the hero of. The army officer who led the ultimate defeat of the allies in the dardanelles in 1915. The conditions of the year treaty of server placed on the ultimate empire were extreme so it seemed to come out that the turks and the turks nation would refuse them and any plan 5 invading european armies. Most of a come on managed to command the turks to victory. In what became the turkish war of independence. And now their yard i must overcome marjah a moment after the op but he opposed the work around the stop bar and you are the one here. Now we know where what you want to do when youre going to be on it at that im happy just declare it to. Which she is here. And for so i mean with and out for sherry. And with assault on a number. Of which i mean a lot of our story. Then but they had a sly yeah and i beat the cleanest. Rabbit and led the happy about that one which let me be your mirror and i have. With the bonds between arab and turks now broken most of a commom and the independent turkey state turned their backs not only on their own past but on the arab peoples as a whole. The arabs who are now on their own. When it becomes clear that the occupation of these regions is going to take place that the british and french armies are not going to leave that the british and french empire states are going to impose a colonial regime armed Opposition Armed revolt becomes an obvious and almost foregone conclusion. Follows ilsa what she was one of the arab generation that lived through the horrors of world war one. He started as an officer in the autumn an army but after the war he joined king faisel when he ruled syria and fozzy also fought at my saloon in 1920. When the Syrian Revolution against the french erupted 5 years later he didnt hesitate to join the nationalist side.

Us hold then a concept of the world when you live no month unless our fandom has an issue in that mess that. A lot of. The arab world could not unite to prevent the state of israel becoming a reality in the heart of the arab world.
