Darlings and Darklings
This is the Voice of Winterbottom: The Protector of Arabs [and Blacks]
My very good friends, I just feel like letting you know how I relate to others. A long time ago, I crossed the Atlantic ocean to a country that had a strange bird that never flies and goes " gobble bobble.. gobble..". I found out it was good for the cooking pot, so I named it Turkey, after my adversaries. During World War 1, these the German chaps instigated these Turks against me. At that time, the Gulf Arab tribes were colonies of Turkey
So, I sent my good friend, Lawrence, to mobilize these Higher Arabs to free themselves from Turkey. He did a good job and so we named him Lawrence of Arabia. But we did not stop there: I became the protector of Higher Arabs, while they became my Protectorates. You may wonder why I call them Higher Arabs? Read on
In North Africa, I saw that there were a lot of Arabs in need of Protection. Of course, I was also in need of Protection Money. But since the were also in the Dark Continent like you, I treated them as Lesser Arabs, and treated them not better than I treated you.. As far as I was concerned they were Darklings in contrast to my Darlings; Higher Arabs.
In World War II, I once again ran into problem with Nazi German guys. All the way from across the Atlantic, my Anglo-Saxon cousins, American Protectors came to bail me out. So, I became their 51st state, and my Darling Arab Protectorates started a romance with a higher power. I still boast that I molded their tribes into Nation States before Americans came to finish the job.
So, what does this concern you? Let me advice you, keep out of our squabbling, for we will eventually use you to settle our differences. As far as we are concerned, you Blacks are not our Darlings.
Cheers!
