                            Midhat Pasha

                            Midhat Pasha, influenced by the British deep state, plunged the Ottoman

                        Empire in a war with Russia. He was also one of the three plotters of the coup
                        that dethroned and caused the martyrdom of Sultan Abdülaziz. Interesting-
                        ly, he was also behind the riot that led to the coup. It is also known that he

                        had planned the coup with the British ambassador Elliot.      146

                            During his first term as the grand vizier, he signed a decree that allowed

                        Egypt to receive foreign loans, which ultimately caused Egypt to come under
                        British rule. Ármin Vámbéry, known as a British spy of the Abdul Hamid II

                        era, was the French tutor of Midhat Pasha.

                            It is also known that during his time as the governor of Baghdad, he
                        sought to bring the Kuwait Emirate under British rule.



                            Kamil Pasha

                            Having spent 9 years as grand vizier, Kamil
                        Pasha was another Ottoman officer that was

                        called 'English' for his anglophile nature. His
                        visit to London in 1851 for an exhibition left

                        him with a lifelong admiration for England.
                        This admiration was such common knowl-

                        edge, from spies' reports to embassy notes,
                        that the matter was discussed everywhere.

                        When he was assigned to Rhodes while he was
                        the governor of Izmir, he sought refuge in the                         Kamil Pasha

                        British Consulate. Only after the Sultan gave a per-
                        sonal assurance, he returned to Istanbul.

                            When he was the Izmir governor, Kamil Pasha worked with the British

                        to create an autonomous region in Izmir, just as in Egypt. Many historians
                        believe that Abdul Hamid II secretly supported him in this endeavor.


                            His final term as the Grand Vizier ended when he had to resign at gun-
                        point by Enver Pasha. He then sought refuge with his close friend Lord Kitch-
                        ener, British Consul-General in charge of Egypt at the time.
