The History of Saudi Wahhabis support of Zionism

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faisal-Weizmann_Agreement

Faisal-Weizmann Agreement

The Faisal-Weizmann Agreement was signed on January 3, 1919, by Emir Faisal (son of the King of Hejaz) and Chaim Weizmann (later President of the World Zionist Organization) as part of the Paris Peace Conference, 1919 settling disputes stemming from World War I. It was a short-lived agreement for Arab-Jewish cooperation on the development of a Jewish homeland in Palestine and an Arab nation in a large part of the Middle East.

Background

Weizmann first met Faisal in June 1918, during the British advance from the South against the Ottoman Empire in World War I. As leader of an impromptu "Zionist Commission", Weizmann traveled to southern Transjordan for the meeting. The intended purpose was to forge an agreement between Faisal and the Zionist movement to support an Arab Kingdom and Jewish settlement in Palestine, respectively. The wishes of the Palestinian Arabs were to be ignored, and, indeed, both men seem to have held the Palestinian Arabs in considerable disdain. Weizmann had called them "treacherous", "arrogant", "uneducated", and "greedy" and had complained to the British that the system in Palestine did "not take into account the fact that there is a fundamental qualitative difference between Jew and Arab".[1] After his meeting with Faisal, Weizmann reported that Faisal was "contemptuous of the Palestinian Arabs whom he doesn't even regard as Arabs".[2]

In preparation for the meeting, British diplomat Mark Sykes had written to Faisal about the Jewish people "...this race, despised and weak, is universal and all powerful and cannot be put down."[3] Under such circumstances, the secret British communication contended, Faisal was well advised to cultivate the Zionist movement as a powerful ally rather than to oppose it. In the event, Weizmann and Faisal established an informal agreement under which Faisal would support dense Jewish settlement in Palestine while the Zionist movement would assist in the development of the vast Arab nation that Faisal hoped to establish.

Weizmann and Faisal met again later in 1918 in London and soon afterwards at the Paris peace conference. In their first meeting in June 1918 Weizmann had assured Faisal that "the Jews did not propose to set up a government of their own but wished to work under British protection, to colonize and develop Palestine without encroaching on any legitimate interests".[4] On January 3, 1919, they signed the written agreement which is known by their names.

[edit] The agreement

Main points of the agreement:

    * The agreement committed both parties to conducting all relations between the groups by the most cordial goodwill and understanding, to work together to encourage immigration of Jews into Palestine on a large scale while protecting the rights of the Arab peasants and tenant farmers, and to safeguard the free practice of religious observances. The Muslim Holy Places were to be under Muslim control.
    * The Zionist movement undertook to assist the Arab residents of Palestine and the future Arab state to develop their natural resources and establish a growing economy.
    * The boundaries between an Arab State and Palestine should be determined by a Commission after the Paris Peace Conference.
    * The parties committed to carrying into effect the Balfour Declaration of 1917, calling for a Jewish national home in Palestine.
    * Disputes were to be submitted to the British Government for arbitration.

Weizmann signed the agreement on behalf of the Zionist Organization, while Faisal signed on behalf of the short-lived Arab Kingdom of Hedjaz.

Two weeks prior to signing the agreement, Faisal stated:

    The two main branches of the Semitic family, Arabs and Jews, understand one another, and I hope that as a result of interchange of ideas at the Peace Conference, which will be guided by ideals of self-determination and nationality, each nation will make definite progress towards the realization of its aspirations. Arabs are not jealous of Zionist Jews, and intend to give them fair play and the Zionist Jews have assured the Nationalist Arabs of their intention to see that they too have fair play in their respective areas. Turkish intrigue in Palestine has raised jealousy between the Jewish colonists and the local peasants, but the mutual understanding of the aims of Arabs and Jews will at once clear away the last trace of this former bitterness, which, indeed, had already practically disappeared before the war by the work of the Arab Secret Revolutionary Committee, which in Syria and elsewhere laid the foundation of the Arab military successes of the past two years.[5]

[edit] Implementation

Faisal conditioned his acceptance on the fulfillment of British wartime promises to the Arabs, who had hoped for independence in a vast part of the Ottoman Empire. He appended to the typed document a hand-written statement:

    "Provided the Arabs obtain their independence as demanded in my [forthcoming] Memorandum dated the 4th of January, 1919, to the Foreign Office of the Government of Great Britain, I shall concur in the above articles. But if the slightest modification or departure were to be made [regarding our demands], I shall not be then bound by a single word of the present Agreement which shall be deemed void and of no account or validity, and I shall not be answerable in any way whatsoever."

The Faisal-Weizmann agreement survived only a few months. The outcome of the peace conference itself did not provide the vast Arab state that Faisal desired mainly because the British and French had struck their own secret Sykes-Picot Agreement of 1916 dividing the Middle East between their own spheres of influence, and soon Faisal began to express doubts about cooperation with the Zionist movement. After Faisal was expelled from Syria and given the Kingdom of Iraq, he contended that the conditions he appended were not fulfilled and the treaty therefore moot. St. John Philby, a British representative in Palestine, later stated that Hussein bin Ali, the Sharif of Mecca and King of Hejaz, on whose behalf Faisal was acting, had refused to recognize the agreement as soon as it was brought to his notice.[6] However, Sharif Hussein formally endorsed the Balfour Declaration in the Treaty of S

I don't support wahabis and I hate the current Saud regime (There is even research that claims they are crypto Jews http://www.fortunecity.com/boozers/brid ... story.html) But Emir Faisal King of Hejaz was not part of the Sauds and the Wahabis as the Wahabis pushed the Sauds to invade Hejaz and depose its King Al Sharif Faisal the Sauds became Kings of Hejaz in 1926, with backing from the British who found that the Belfour-Rothschild pact made Faisal uneasy and was becoming increasingly uncooperative so they used his mortal enemies the Sauds to take him out. That is why until now it is illegal for any GGC Arab to say they are part of the Ashraf Prophet Mohammed (PBUH) descendents since they can lay claim and will get the support to rule the Arabian Peninsula.

The Sauds are known to be the most corrupt kings in the Arab world. They've had a hand in every Arab-Arab conflict since they started...The Yemen civil war, The Lebanese civil war, Gulf war I, II and III....Even now they were pushing the Future party of Lebanon in to war with Hizbo-Allah. If the Sauds are not the clear definition of puppets I don't know what is. They do more damage against the Islamic war than israel I'm more and more inclined to believe the crypto Jew origins of the Sauds.
