NGONGE Posted May 13, 2013 ^^ Everybody fought in their own corner around more or less the same time (and everybody eventually lost against the main world powers). As for Palestine, the Arabs fought for it in 1948, 1967 and 1973. It's only because the rest of the world helped the yehood out that the place was lost.

Tallaabo Posted May 13, 2013 ^ No I had in mind how the Arabs collaborated with the British and the French agains the Ottomans during the first world war and as a result not only lost Palestine but were colonised and divided by those same western powers.

NGONGE Posted May 15, 2013 ^^ In the same way the Somalis collaborated with Ethiopia (or Kenya today)? The Arabs would have fought the Ottomans (and did) regardless of the Brits or the French, saaxib. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
