book is called The Great War for Civilisation after the inscription on the back of my father's World War I medal. After WWI the British and French created the borders of Northern Ireland, Yugoslavia and the Middle East. I've spent my entire professional career watching the people within those borders burn. For me it's all about linking history with the present. -- http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4393358.stm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_War_for_Civilisation:... http://www.archive.org/details/RobertFiskWarGeopoliticsAndHi...
