Poor old Turkey is only hanging together. People always talk of splendid show

she has made lately, but it really is too pitiful for words. Everything about her

is very very sick... 70

After a short while, sent to Iraq on a secret mission by the British War
Office, Lawrence re-emerged in April 1916 to help save the 13,000 British

troops under General Townshend's command, who were held under siege by
the Turks at Kut Al Amara. Together with Colonel Beach and another British

officer named Aubrey Herbert, he met the Turkish General Halil Pasha with
the intention of offering him first £1 million hoping that Halil Pasha would

release the British garrison. According to the plan, if he rejected, they would
double the amount and offer £2 million instead. Halil Pasha, completely dis-

bribery, humiliating them.

In the meantime, the representatives of the British deep state were deep

to join and cooperate with the British army, promising Shia leaders the

caliphate. He failed.

After Sharif Hussein started the revolt, Lawrence went to Arabia in Oc-

Zaid, the sons of Sharif Hussein, and Faisal, whom he would later greatly help
in his ascension to throne in 1921 in Iraq. Together with other British offi-

cers, he helped supply weapons and money to the revolt, which was in its ini-
tial stages, and also gathered together and organized the rioting tribes and

staged attacks on pre-determined targets.

After joining the forces of Faisal as a communication officer, Lawrence
continued his spying activities and participated in the actual fighting against

the Turks. With hit-and-run tactics, he inflicted damages on Ottoman units

and supply lines and captured Aqaba Port, which won him a medal and the
title of lieutenant colonel. He staged attacks on Hejaz railway. Hundreds of
Ottoman soldiers were martyred in the ever-intensifying attacks, and the

British won the battle. Lawrence didn't refrain from revealing his twisted

state of mind as he boasted about his success:
