HAPPY ARABIA*



*Arabia: An ancient mythical and illusionary geopolitical concept that  was temporally revived in the beginning of the 20th century by Col. T.E. Lawrence of the British Intelligence as a mean to unify the Bedouin tribes of Hejaz against the Ottoman occupation. The theory also inspired a group of Mideastern liberals and free thinkers (mainly Christian Lebanese and Syrians ) who strived to market the idea of Arab Nationalism in the region, but to no avail.
