Let us reiterate one important fact: Neither Kurds nor Assyrians wished

                     to rebel on Turkish lands. On the contrary, most of these communities ob-
                     jected to these riots. The truth is, the riots were organized and orchestrated

                     by the British deep state spies. The goal was to facilitate British intervention
                     on Turkish lands, portraying Turkey as a weak country intolerant of its mi-

                     norities, and of course, ensuring definitive dominion over Mosul. The ruses
                     of the British deep state succeeded and the Investigative Commission set up

                     by the League of Nations issued its report in favor of the British case and the
                     League made its decision accordingly. Erzurum MP Hüseyin Avni Bey's fol-

                     lowing words were proven right once more: 'League of Nations is nothing but
                     a British council'. 421



                         Mosul Is Lost

                         The League of Nations made Mosul a part of Iraq under British mandate,

                     and its duration was extended to 25 years while originally it was to last only
                     5 years. It was also decided that the economic matters should be resolved be-

                     tween the two countries through various agreements.

                         The main reasons why the Mosul dispute was resolved against Turkey's
                     argument can be listed as follows:


                         1- Turkey was not a member of the League of Nations,
                         2- Great Britain was the most influential member of the League (in-

                         deed, many called the League a British council),

                         3- The Estonian general who went to the region to carry out exami-
                         nations wasn't allowed to go to the north of the Brussels Line that de-

                         fined the Turkish-Iraqi border, which made it impossible to carry out
                         an unbiased investigation,

                         4- Turkey couldn't send a representative to Permanent Court of Jus-

                         tice,
                         5- Sheikh Said Rebellion, which was provoked by the British deep state,

                         put Turkey in a difficult position.

                         Although Turkey objected to the decision, to maintain the newly emerged
                     'peace atmosphere' and to not violate the former resolutions accepted, she was
