edbytheTurksandtheestablishmentofnationalGovernmentsandadministrationsdrawingtheirauthority fromtheinitiativeandfreechoiceof indigenouspopulations."In1920,after someexperienceofliberationundera Britishgarrison,thepeopleofMesopotamiarebelledandnearlycaptured Baghdad.Afterthis,SirPercyCox, thenewHighCommissioner,repeated thepromiseofself-determination.CertainprominentMesopotargians,who hadassistedusinquellingtherevolt, wereinvitedtojoinaprovisonalgovernment,amongthemSeyyidTalib. "Itshouldheadded,"saysMr.Powell,"thattheBritishwereunderthe greatestobligationstoTalib,who,duringtherebellionof1920,hadanswered theirappealsforhelpbycomingtothe aidofthebeleagueredgarrisonof Baghdad,therebysavingBritisharms andprestigefromseriousdisaster."
AtthisjunctureMr.WinstonChurchill,asColonialSecretary,ordered, againstSirPercyCox'sadvice,that Feisal(sonofHussein)shouldbemade KingofIraq,althoughitwasknown thatalmostalltheinhabitantsloathed him.Talibgotwindoftheplan,and, atdinnerinhisownhouse,expressed strongdisapprovalofit.Thisfailure tounderstandthetheaningof"self-determination"wasquicklyrectified.SeyyidTalibwasinvitedbyLadyCoxto teaattheResidency.Onhisdeparture,hefoundtheroadblockedbyan armytruck,hewasarrested,takenin aspecialtraintoBasra,andconveyed aprisonertoCeyloninadestroyer. WillMr.Thomasordertheinstant restorationofTalibtohisnativecountry?AndwillhetakestepstoredeemtheBritishGovernment'spromisestoallowself-governmenttoIraq?
Thefailureofourimperialistambitions-intheNearEastisattributable tothreecausesoperatingsuccessively, andoneoperatingthroughout.The causeoperatingthroughoutwasBritishpopularindifference,whichmade LloydGeorgefailinhisatttmpttoget upacrusade.Oftheotherthree,the firstwasthepolicyoftheSovietGovernment,springingpartlyfromsincere convictions,partlyfromtheneedof retaliationagainstoursupportofrebellioninRussia.TheBolshevikssucceededinpersuadingAsiathatthey didnotwishtointerferewiththeindependenceofthenationsontheir frontiers.BeingshutoutfromEuropebytheblockade,theybecamethe championsofthelibertiesofAsia,and weresoregardedfromtheBosphorus totheYellowSea.Theirassistance was,nodoubt,ofgreatimportancein theearlystagesofTurkishresistance totheunratifiedTreatyofSevres.The growthofNationalistTurkey,which theyassisted,wasthesecondcauseof ourfailure;thethirdwasFrenchoppositiontoourschemesofconquest.
Thislast,fromthepointofviewof Frenchimperialism,wasprobably short-sighted,sincetheultimateresult islikelytobetheliberationofAsia fromallWesterndominion.Thetwo Powerswhichhavegainedinthe scrambleareRussiaandAmerica,becausetheyhavedisplayedleastimperialism,andarebelievedbyAsiatics (rightlyorwrongly)tohavenosinister designs-.

Itwasthoughtthattheirregularityof titlewouldnotmatter,owingtothe Anglo-PersianConventionandthepresenceofBritishtroopsinPersia.The Majliss,however,refusedtoratifythe Convention,andthePersiansshowed themselvessobitterlyanti-Britishthat anexpensivewarwouldhavebeennecessarytokeepthemdown.Perhaps weshouldhaveengagedinthiswarbut foramaster-strokeofpolicyonthe partofthePersians.Theygavea concessionfortheoilinthenorthern provincestotheStandardOilCompany.Consequentlywecouldnolongerinflict"self-determination"upon themwithoutcomingintoconflictwith America.ThePersianGovernment proceededtoinvitetheassistanceofa numberofAmericanfinancialandtechnicaladvisers,whoaresettingthe countryonitsfeet.Wehavecome
