  8. ⬆️ The #KitchenerTelegram gained something in translation that #British had not intended β€” involvement of #Arabs DURING the War

    So a "clarification" was sent, which made matters worse

    Secret societies of discontented Arabs in #Hejaz (#Arabia) immediately latched on to these signals and drafted the #DamascusProtocol, not for #Palestinians #inTheirName, but for their OWN power

    In any case, #Britain did not owe Palestinians anything because the latter never fought the #Turks to help the British

    While this sounds diabolical, let's not forget what brought #Britain to this.

    It was, of course, the #TurkishGermanGreatWarIntrigue on the international front as well as their oppression of #Arabs in #Palestine and #Hejaz (#Arabia).

    In the latter case, discontent was already brewing among Arabs within the #Ottoman Empire even before the British became entangled.

    This was a World War. Intrigue everywhere was the norm, not exception.

    Britain sensed the discontent and sought to exploit it.

  14. ⬆️ Grand Sharif #Hussein secretly dispatched emissaries to main #Arab leaders

    1915: #Hussein learns of #Turkish plans to depose him, and to assert #Ottoman control over #Hejaz

    #AlAhd & #AlFatat join forces; conceive the #DamascusProtocol, foundation of #ArabRevolt

    Implicit in the Damascus Protocol, Grand Sharif Hussein would preside over the "Great Arab State" containing #Palestine.

    #Britain Makes Hussein an offer for an independent #sovereign #Muslim State & full control over holy sites!
