                                And we were casting them by thousands into the fire to the worst of

                                deaths, not to win the war but that the corn and rice and oil of
                                Mesopotamia might be ours. The only need was to defeat our ene-

                                mies (Turkey among them), and this was at last done in the wisdom
                                of Allenby with less than four hundred killed, by turning to our uses
                                the hands of the oppressed in Turkey. I am proudest of my thirty

                                fights in that I did not have any of our own blood shed. All our sub-
                                ject provinces to me were not worth one dead Englishman.    71

                                Lawrence was the principal driving force behind the Arab revolt

                            against the Turks , and he would also admit that his duty was based
                                               72
                            on hypocrisy and deceit:


                                My people have probably told you that the job is to foment an Arab
                                rebellion against Turkey, and for that I have to try and hide my frank-
                                ish exterior, and be as little out of the Arab picture as I can. So it's a

                                kind of foreign stage, on which one plays day and night, in fancy dress,
                                in a strange language…  73

                                                                    th
                                In the attack staged against the 4 Ottoman Army in September
                            1918, Lawrence ordered his men to not take any prisoners. As a re-

                            sult, upon the orders of Lawrence, 5,000 Ottoman soldiers were be-
                            headed in a shocking massacre. By the end of the same year, togeth-
                                                              74
                            er with his entourage of murderers, he entered and terrorized Dam-
                            ascus.

                                In October 1918, Lawrence set out for Britain, before which he

                            would write the following lines to Major R. H. Scott on October 4:


                                We were an odd, small group but I believe we changed the course of

                                history in the Middle East. 75

                                In the preface of his Seven Pillars of Wisdom, Lawrence explains

                            how the British deep state, with him as their representative, deceived
                            Arabs with false promises so that they would be convinced to riot
                            against the Turks:
