During the past two weeks I’ve written a series of diaries about post-World War I mandates in the Middle-East.
It’s a subject which most don’t know much about, but I believe that understanding this era is important to understanding the region today.
That’s why I wrote these diaries.
If you read them I hope you enjoyed them, and I hope that they can be a resource for those who want to learn more about the mandate era in the Middle-East.

I’ll write about the mandate for Palestine in a few days.
A good friend of mine had a baby 6 days ago, and then 2 days ago she suffered a blood clot in her brain so I’m helping out with that right now.
