@theotherhistoryofmorocco: While people today talk about Pan-Arabism and a united region stretching from Morocco to Iraq, many forget the year 1916. #Arab Revolt was absolutely seen as a treasonous stab in the back, especially since the #Ottoman Sultan held the title of Caliph (the leader of the Islamic world). The British Crown promised Sharif Hussein a vast, independent Arab kingdom if he rebelled against the Ottomans. The Arabs fought, bled, and toppled the empire only to realize too late that London and Paris had already signed a completely different agreement behind their backs. Before the revolt was even over, the Europeans had already divided up the #Middleeast and North Africa among themselves like a piece of cake. The promised freedom was traded for colonial mandates and decades of foreign rule. Anyone who wants to understand the region’s current divisions must not start with today’s borders but with the betrayal of that time. #european#colonization

Who needs the Ottoman Empire? We have Türkiye, it's much better. Honestly Arabs made the correct choice

osmaninmileti🥛🧂 :

Most Arabs were fighting FOR the ottomans against the British. The collapse of the Ottoman Empire is mostly due to the young turks’ revolt.

So the arabs betrayed the ottoman empire only to end up worse lmao

Where to read this? Any book you suggest?

Why do we always try to conceal the fact that the primary reason for the collapse of the Ottoman Empire was the Western-backed coup by the Committee of Union and Progress against Sultan Abdul Hamid—along with the imposition of secular nationalism and participation in the World War? This is the true cause of the empire's fall, not a revolt led by a small group of Bedouin tribes. This is the truth that the Turks obscure, attempting to shift the blame onto the Arabs to mask their own failures. Why do they expect Arab support after having chosen secularism and nationalism over Islam?

I’m an Arab and I’m sorry and I’m on Turks/ Ottoman side and will always be

the ottomans were colonizers who ruled over arab lands & offered nothing but draining the people through taxes, we didn't revolt out of thin air or because the british "tricked" us lol

Atheus :

So funny when Arabs call imazighen a french creation while the amazigh identity is older than the arab and french one. And not to forget the arabs worked with the french to erase our identity. And they worked with the brits against the ottomans to gain land and its the brits who made their flag😂 If anyone is made by europeans its the arabs and their identity.

jenascus :

Why are you so biased it was only Bedouin tribes that fought Arabs helped the ottomans literally the majority of Arabs supported the ottomans but sure it gets overshadowed by some random minorities

user67421509248 :

The turks also turkified us in turkey, they gave us no rights and oppressed us with armenians..thanks Bedouins!!
