    I really wish people would bring up the Sykes-Picot agreement more often. It really sheds light on the West’s attitude and foreign policy towards the Middle East.

    *Loooong Time Back....there were NO Boundaries*
    *People used to travel freely*
    *No such thing as "visa" , in fact "no passports" , no divided "countries"*
    *You could just pack your belongings and immigrate to any place in this wide world*
    *As The Prophet ABRAHAM and His Wife SARAH (Peace Be Upon Them) traveled from today's Iraq to Palestine and established their life there....as simple as that*
