If they had seen the world as it is today, would any of these people have bothered to get out of bed?

Does this mean that it was the JEWdian Hills were the straw that broke the Camel's back? The Turks were Senile and Decadent.

The Arabs were Malaria ridden, Flee bitten Mohammedans, and Lawrence of Arabia was an Anglican Saint.
