The British do have a bad habit of invading people and drawing silly lines on the map.

I find it endlessly amusing that the state which was probably most tolerant of Jews prior to the creation of Israel was the Ottoman Empire. But I guess they were too busy hunting down Kurds and Armenians.

You know, maybe the best solution to the whole Middle East problem is to just revive the Ottoman Empire. I'm sure Mehmet the sixth has some heirs floating around somewhere.

Plus, it'll give the Russians something to do to.

All of the worlds problems solved in one go! I'm a genius!
