basra and baghdad were put under direct british control. and damascus were put under french protection and were called area a. the rest of mr petain mia and the south of greater syria were put under british protection and called area b. . what's palestine including jerusalem was designated as an international zone in brown. all those like speaker was never implemented it formed the basis of future negotiations and the post autumn in middle east resembled the areas of influence it created so the map has different colors different letters but ultimately what really matters is the line in the sand that runs from the coast to the persian from their local state in this yes. nasha. faith six people. while they're not quite mean. don't really need. men. called from us or wealthy. mining these. shall be from the who let it. be funny in a funny way the british felt that the system that the arabs so viewed as a betrayal. was in keeping with the terms of what they've agreed with the hash guides because they were still considering the territories if th

if people of british citizenship. if people are dual citizens you can do that and take away their bridges and —— british citizenship if they are a citizen of another country and it is contrary to international law to do it if they only have citizenship of your country. the government gave themselves powers under counterterrorism acts to do that and they have stripped about 81 people of sitters ship it is believed in the last ten years. generally speaking in ways that they are allowed to do but it can be legally challenged if in international law and under the universal declaration of human rights, if you take away their only citizenship so the home 0ffice their only citizenship so the home office at the moment are not saying anything because i imagine they find it very sensitive. it is much more easy if the british government simply say these people have committed crimes against americans and if they are handed over to america through an extradition process and they stand trial in america then undoubtedly they wil
