Question The Third Reich and the Arab East

Has anybody read this? From the wiki description it looks interesting (though rather dated). Not something I'll be rushing out to buy (the cheapest copy found is £80+):

A very complex and detailed political chronology. I am sure it would be a difficult read.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)

What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts? Check out this site:

Yeah, I have learned of some of that. Similar views between the Nazis and and Arabs when it came to the Jewish people, and a dislike of British settlements in certain countries in the middle east formed a loose pact. You're right though, it is an difficult read, and I haven't tapped ten percent of what that book could possibly tell ya
