Amazingly no one has

Yet blamed the UK for the Middle East, after turning a broadly tribal region into nations at the end of the Palestinian mandate. Maybe we don’t look far enough back, after all we repeated that error in joining the Iraq war.

Personally I blame Cromwell 😊

The Iraq War, certainly the second iteration, was less error and more crime. We waded into that one on an entirely fictitious premise and made a huge mess. Then we wonder why terrorism happens 🤷 We've given all the ammunition in the world to those who wish to radicalise others against us. Of course, that's never the narrative. I wonder how I'd feel towards Iraq if they carpet bombed my city and left me an orphan at age 8 over a completely false premise. Well, I don't wonder really, I'm pretty sure I know. I wonder who will have WMD's next. Right now it's Iran, also with very little evidence of them being close to owning a nuclear weapon and a similar lack of evidence that they are even trying to make one.

@UBotMate And Trump is preparing America to do the same thing again. He is already saying the entire US intelligence community is wrong and he is right..Just like George W did with WMDs..And I am betting no one will stop him...😷

I've been through all that decades ago, so I guess it's old news. Drawing national lines that put rival religious tribes into the same nations. Making sure countries with resources got landlocked without ports to make sure their trade could be more easily controlled or hampered by what happens in Europe. Basically divided the region in ways to maximize hostilities between those local to the region.

Well said. How very much has happened from then til now.
Everyone pretended to try and help only to withdraw after throwing gasoline on the fire.
