The rebellious Arabs were hopeful to establish one unified kingdom with the help of the British. Hence, the Arab Rebellion (1916-1918) served only the purposes of the British during the war. Indeed, while the Arabs revolted the British and the French signed the Sykes-Picot Treaty in 1916, thereby negating any Arab hopes of a unified kingdom in the future. But, the Arabs were unaware of this secret treaty. Yet, despite the fact the Ottoman intelligence warned the Arabs of the British and French deceit, the Arabs went on with their misguided hopes.</p> http://iqballatif.new.newsvine.com/_news/2012/01/12/10132704-pornistan-a-brief-history-of-sex-from-immaculate-conception-and-virgin-birth-to-hafiz-i-shirazi-and-abu-nuwas-unaging-youths-as-beautiful-as-pearlshttp://iqballatif.new.newsvine.com/_news/2012/01/12/10132704-pornistan-a-brief-history-of-sex-from-immaculate-conception-and-virgin-birth-to-hafiz-i-shirazi-and-abu-nuwas-unaging-youths-as-beautiful-as-pearlsworld-newspornistangoogle-search-sexThu, 12 Jan 2012 11:07:28 +0000http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/posthttp://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/generic_post<p>Louis Jean Francois - Mars and Venus an Allegory of Peace </p><p>Voltaire said, once a philosopher, twice a pervert.</p><p>Gandhi found out the hard way that believing sex is bad only ends up being bad for you.
