Yup I'm sure the middle east would be paradise if the religious cults were allowed to wage war with each other perpetually 
No matter what, that area is fucked. If they didn't have oil, they'd be fucked. If the US didn't intervene, they'd be fucked. If Russia didn't exploit them, they'd be fucked. If people were allowed to think freely, they'd be OK eventually.
I see what you're saying - at least if the US didn't intervene, they'd be fucking themselves over with probably nothing affecting the West. But as humans, do we really want to let that happen? That's like seeing some guy beat the shit out of his wife and not doing anything about it.

Take Saudi Arabia for example... its said the religious cult Wahhabism was a "British" created and engineered movement (among others) to subvert true Islam.
Are we to believe the "British" ever even left control of that country?
Even the British royal family is not British... the English last name Windor was used to hide the fact that the they were originally German.

As a philatelist, anytime I get to use stamps for reference, I take it............ http://canadachannel.ca/todayincanad...hristmas_Stamp
This, of course, depicts the vast British Empire as at 1898. As for CIC's map, does the pink represent countries that were not invaded by or is it the other way around? hee hee

For example the US invaded japan... but in 1783 Thomas Jefferson and crew recognized King George III as the prince of the United States in the Paris Peace treaty.
edit - Although I believe japans long standing empire changed power prior to the great world wars... one would have to dig into history with search phrases such as Masons to find clues. Quote:

Actually if you remember it was Obama who got caught on an open mic saying that he would be able to be more flexible for Putin after his election....and Hillary who took $140 million in bribes from them for 20% of the US uranium industry. Maybe we should also ask if France and England are also in their pocket because all three countries attacked a target?

Well, not a really an invasion when you consider the Amuricans were originally British to start with.
Also, I am a bit of an Empire Loyalist. Long live Her Majesty the Queen!

But no, I think you're actually correct here. However I don't think the British "created" it. But they did promote it in order to defeat the ottoman during WW1.

Was watching CBC this morning and they briefly showed a clip of a guy speaking with journalists outside one of the bombed factories in Syria.
The guy was the manager of the building and he said 'if this building made chemical weapons, we wouldn't be able to stand here and talk about it'. I tried looking for the full interview all morning but couldn't find it.
Overall, I can't shake off how brilliant it would be if 'moderate rebel' (aka radical terrorist groups) were actually complicit in the gas attacks as a way to subvert the western powers and actually have those super powers do their bidding by destabilizing yet another country and allowing ISIS or some other radical empathizing cell to grow in strength and cause further turmoil for the innocent people.

Saw a documentary about how hard working the Germans are.

The agreement is seen by many as a turning point in Western and Arab relations. It negated the UK's promises to Arabs[12] made for a national Arab homeland in the area of Greater Syria, in exchange for supporting the British against the Ottoman Empire.

| Some very interesting theories as to how far this group spread during that period. Some say all the way to the creation of wahhabism and the inception of the royal family of Saud.. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dönmeh

In other news. The Korean war is about to be officially over.
Could it be the media has been making nk look more evil than they really are and we all bought it?
