True. The Sykes Picot Agreement. As I relearn history I find secret agreements written up, before the first shot is fired, on how it will be divided later. France, Britain, etc all get their pieces so they don't lose time in-fighting. They could not allow Germany to benefit from this, and especially not the Arabs. The post Ukraine and Gaza/Palestine agreements are interesting too. See Lawrence of Arabia's biography detailing the fact he knew they intended to do this all along.
Too bad learning from history has not been invented yet.
