I wonder how the Middle East would look today Turkey had remained neutral in World War One?

Would it maybe have been even more violent as the Arab states fight for independence from one of the world’s last empires.

The east vs west /christian vs Muslim situation might not be so pronounced. There would be no Isreal. Perhaps the discovery of oil fields would have guaranteed the same outcome.

Would've been nice if they didn't murder the indigenous Armenian, Greek, and Assyrian population.

@basilfawlty89 Ugh, everyone is just batting for their one team again…

It would be nice if nobody got murdered. But apparently that’s too much to ask for.

@AdmiralPrune Genocide is much worse than war death.
