Which is one of the reasons that the breakup of the Ottoman Empire was not such a great idea.

The world was better off when the Turks kept the Arabs in line.

The Turks were allies of the Arabs, just like today, before the British Empire got the Arabs to revolt.

And if the Ottoman Empire wasn’t broken up, then Israel would have still been part of “South Syria”.
