Could you let me know the source that Henry Sykes designed the flag?....other sources state it was much later although it looks very similar to the Hashemite/Ali Hussein flag used in the 1916 Arab revolt. Thanks
I heard this about 20 years ago from David Fromkin,the historian --- I’d recommend Fromkin’s »A Peace to End All Piece » and James Barr’s « A Line in the Sand »l
Amazing that these two buffoons, Sykes & Picot, could create so much mischief.
