I cant believe we are still to this day fighting for control and influence over oil in the middle east. After watching this I can really see how if the U.S. went to war with Iran it can trigger another world war
Now I see why some Arab states want Palistine to have their own state and some dont. This was very informative. I think it is only fare for Israel and Palistine to both have their own. The Kurds need their own too
One big problem with this documentary: the narrator refers to "the Turks" as opposed to "the Ottomans." The Ottoman Empire was hugely multicultural, and its military was mainly made up of Arab troops (I think that's even mentioned at one point), and there were significant proportions of many other ethnicities.
@TheSabre111 Only in the Middle-East were there Troops mostly made up of Arabs. In Eastern Anatolia and the Cacasus their ranks were mostly filled by Turks, Azeri, Kurds and Greek muslims.
@TheSabre111 It wasn't mainly Arab troops then who conquered Egypt of Mamluks? Or Syria? Or Iraq? Or even more? Ottoman was a Turkish empire.
Turks have no official document of Arabic soldiers who fought against Russians or Europeans but only when Europeans attacked from over Seas against Syria, Egypt, Lebanon, Jerusalem... etc. Then Yes, there were Arabic troops.
@TheSabre111 An example: Turco - Italo War, 8.000 Turkish soldiers, 20.000 Arabic soldiers that's all, The rest of Libya prefers to watch and see the result instead fighting against Italians.
Narrator = the guy from The X files? I know that voice.

Greek orthodoxes helped Turks in 1453 against the violence of romans.
Greeks were nothing else than a puppet of David Lyoyd George in World War 1 and they got their lesson! Have a bit honor before you swear!
