IsRealHell conceived in 1904 with Theodor Herzl and Wilhelm II 1898, planned by the picot-sikes agreement 1916, approved by the Balfour Declaration 1917, with finial implementation with the Nakba 1948….. then there’s the redline agreement of 1928 and the Kirkuk–Haifa oil pipeline 1934 and now the Gaza Marine gas field 1999
Please expound. I currently don’t have the time to explain how the British, and US empires have schemed to control the world’s fossil fuels resources. Sikes-Picot and Balfour are a good start— and unknown to most Americans living today.
Many of the “treaties” to carve up the petroleum reserves were drawn up in secret, and not well-publicized in the USA.
If you have more time, perhaps you can explain about the dissection of the Levant as the spoils of war between the British and Ottoman Empires, and the creation of Saudi Arabia, and the creation of Kuwait upon an oilfield, and the relationships with Dubai and the UAE.
It may not be “ALL” about the oil, but I daresay it’s mostly about the oil, control about access to the oil and control of the fossil fuels prices. Most Americans are unaware because the mass media and public education system has deliberately not informed them.

Now Imagine Britain as Palestine!
