That’s like blaming Israel for the “creation” of Islamic terror regimes.

No; those were due to the USSR. It was the USSR who supported Nasser against Israel and the West, which got the whole ball rolling. It was also the USSR that backed Gaddafi against King Idris of Libya.

The idea of “pan-Arabism” came from “pan-Germanism”; the combination of Arab nationalism and Islamic socialism (nationalism + socialism = ?) has only one source as well.

BTW, colonialism did not start with the Brits; and the preceding colonialism of the other European powers was far more harmful, which is why we had a Monroe Doctrine in response to that particular colonialism. Those who distort the history of British colonialism have that in common with Obama.

Psst, you didn’t refute any of my comments on the documented creation of these made-up countries - don’t deflect. I know enough about both the good and the evils of British colonialism - including their creation of modern Islamic states.

To blame USSR and Nasser for the existence of Palestine is rich. Maybe you should read about Glubb Pasha and how the British forces in 1947-48 actively fought WITH the Arab Legion against the nascent Hagannah and Irgun in Israel.

Nice deflection on the others - Saudi Arabia & Pakistan.

You are either uninformed or are dissembling deliberately - and false accusations of calling others democrats don’t absolve you of your ignorance/lying.
