"If Pamela finds out, you will be finished." Hedy Lamarr frightened the man, indicating the seriousness of the matter.
"First of all, Pamela is still in London. Her next stage of work is in India, where she will inspect medical and biological companies with relevant talents. So how can she read Egyptian newspapers in her home country? Even if she does, the above There is no name on me either. Even if there is, I will not admit it. This is all a slander from the Egyptians. It is a slander in the first place, and you are not an Arab."
Alan Wilson paused at this point, "And even if she passes through Egypt, she will definitely send a telegram to explain in advance."
Regarding the issue of trust between two people together, he had long instilled relevant ideas in Pamela Mountbatten. Although it cannot be said that there are three obediences and four virtues, it can only be said that it is relatively more masculine.
He will not feel disappointed because Pamela Mountbatten's appearance cannot be compared with these female stars. Everyone will grow old. Maybe these actresses will take care of themselves and age a little slower. After all, their beauty will pass away one day. He still had this matter clear in his mind.
Although there was a possibility that he would be kicked out before he got married, how could he possibly guide the Mountbatten family to imitate Chang Gong and take root in the U.S. stock market while he remained indifferent? It's not that he is so short of money on the surface, it's just that being so tight will make his fiancée feel safe, and this doesn't include the gold taken out of India.
All in all, Hedy Lamarr's blackmail against Alan Wilson, while justified, does not constitute a crisis.
The news that Egypt and Iraq are competing for the dominance of the Arab League has aroused great concern among the people of the two countries.
On the one hand, Egypt has home field advantage and the largest population in the Arab world. Egyptians hope their king will back down from Iraq's rude request.
On the other hand, the Kingdom of Iraq has made a huge contribution in the first Middle East war. Even if it is more powerful than the Iraqis in history, it is not false at all. Its disobedience to Egypt has been clearly revealed.
"We can do some manipulation of public opinion!" After finding his old boss Sir Barron, Alan Wilson said in a consultative tone. The other party is the British Commissioner in the Persian Gulf, and the hegemony of British public opinion lies in the hands of Sir Barron.
"I saw some newspapers saying that the Iraqis gave you a girl?" Sir Barron was obviously more interested in Alan Wilson's private life and asked if this was the case.
"It's nonsense. It's just that the Egyptians want to embarrass the Iraqi representative." Alan Wilson categorically denied, "It just happens to affect me. No one will believe this kind of rumor.
At least Pamela definitely wouldn't. "
After hearing this, Sir Barron also felt that it was reasonable. His assistant should not be so courageous. General Mountbatten was not far away and would show up at Alexandria Port without incident.
The manipulation of public opinion is invisible. Most people in the world are stupid. They only want to believe what they believe. This is why the United States attaches great importance to the hegemony of public opinion.
Of course, when it comes to the United States itself, the hegemony of public opinion may not be easy to use. If the United States has been killing people and setting fires around the world for decades, no matter how strong the hegemony of public opinion is, it cannot whitewash this behavior.
Britain's hegemony of public opinion in the Persian Gulf cannot be used on Britain itself, otherwise it will be considered fake news by the locals.
But it is easy to use it to set the pace. For example, the disputes between Egypt and Iraq are extremely suitable for British public opinion in the local area.
In terms of colonial policy, Britain has actually never been interested in partition. British India and British Malaya were both colonies merged by the British. They were just a group of small countries in the past.
The interest in partition appeared when British India was about to become independent. Among the British forces in the Middle East, Britain was still promoting the Greater Syria Plan during World War II, aiming to form Syria, Lebanon, Transjordan, Palestine and Iraq into a British controlled Commonwealth.
Once this federation emerges, it will inevitably dominate Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Egypt has nothing but a canal. As for Saudi Arabia, it is just Egypt with oil.
Greater Syria will occupy the Mesopotamia, have a reliable agricultural area, reach the east coast of the Mediterranean, and have a population similar to Egypt. The absolute largest country in the Arab world, Britain did not give up this opportunity after the war, and Nuri Said was the person chosen by Britain to implement the plan.
Of course, today, everyone who knows or does not know the inside story of this plan knows that this plan has been aborted. Many people in the Kingdom of Iraq know about this plan.
With this popular base, we can make some modifications and then let Egypt and Iraq fight a public opinion war.
The media in Egypt and Iraq have launched an all-round competition around who is more suitable to lead the Arab League.
Egyptian public opinion is proud of the history of ancient Egypt, while Iraq counters with the Sumerian civilization.
The discovery of the Sumerian civilization is, of course, a legacy that the British were busy digging out and excavating, and it has been around for many years. Countries around the world now accept the Sumerian civilization as the oldest civilization. The Sumerian civilization was in what is now Iraq in the Mesopotamia!
It can be said that the Iraqis are honest when comparing history, and they never think that the Egyptian pyramids are anything to be proud of.
Although Egypt and Iraq are now both worlds of the Peace Cult, they are both inhabited by Arabs. But of course they are also proud of the ancient civilization born on the land where they live.
Egypt will be proud of ancient Egypt, Iraqis will be proud of Sumer and Babylon, and Iranians will sing praises for the ancient Persian Empire. However, the Protestants in these countries have not developed and grown.
Otherwise, in this wave of rhythm, Alan Wilson can still provoke these people to question the other party's history. The pyramids were built by Napoleon, and the Sumerian civilization was imitated by the British.
As the Arab Conference progresses, the opinions of all parties are constantly disclosed. Those who follow this Arab League meeting can also feel the atmosphere of cooperation and struggle.
Farouk I proposed to assemble the power of the entire Arab world and adopt diplomatic, economic and military confrontation methods to allow the Jews to leave Palestinian land. He also emphasized, "We will not recognize Israel's illegal occupation of Palestinian land, but we have to Considering the current international public opinion, we are indignant at the European countries' mistakes in purging Jews and the Arabs' compensation actions. However, in a sense, we have to admit that the problem cannot be solved by military means in a short time. But the united Arabs, With its vast land and population, we can bring down the Jews. We will strengthen ourselves and then make the Jews retreat in spite of difficulties.”
King Farouk I's statement won the support of Arab countries, and for this purpose, each country's sharing quota was formulated. Formulating an arms race will make Israel and its supporters understand that this confrontation will not be won.
Sir Barron and Alan Wilson looked at each other and shrugged almost at the same time. If they had a choice, neither of them would want to do this, but Britain can only support the Arabs. Who has the greater interests in the Arab countries? Most places in the Middle East are still under the influence of Britain and France. If we don’t seize Israel as the scapegoat, who else can we seize?
"According to the previous plan, our country's military strength was reduced to Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar and Oman. Military bases must be established in these places. Of course, we also have military bases in Iraq, but now we should reduce our presence. This is also in vain. The common meaning of the hall.”
Sir Barron nodded and replied, "These places are sparsely populated. The population near Oman is larger, but it can also be easily controlled by the British army. This can indeed save costs greatly."
"It's easier to negotiate with monarchies!" Alan Wilson said lightly, "So sometimes we should help some royal families in the Middle East, so that things can be easier to do."
On the seventh day of the Arab Conference, Sir Barron expressed Britain's support for the decisions made by the Arab Conference.
But then Alan Wilson appeared as the villain, which was his role this time anyway, and Egyptians already knew that Prime Minister Nouri Said was seeking support from the British.
Alan Wilson stated that the Kingdom of Iraq had more balanced natural conditions. Although it was not stated explicitly, the implication was that Egypt's leadership was still questionable.
Lord Barron, of course, vetoed this talk of support for Iraq in front of the King of Egypt. Then the summary of this session ended.
Of course, this was not the end. The meeting was not over yet. The two left the venue to watch the public opinion in Egypt.
On the second day, which was actually the last day of this Arab League meeting, Alan Wilson formally proposed a more complete proposal, spending a long time describing the data of the Kingdom of Iraq on its land and oil resources and military strength. Fight for the last chance for the Kingdom of Iraq.
To put it simply, it is a two-talker. Egypt can be Le Ge, and Iraq can be Big D. A club can have two talkers, which is more in line with the times.
But Sir Barron, who has signed a declaration with Farouk I that Egypt will relinquish its right to rule the Sudan, naturally uses population as everything. Egypt is the largest in the Arab League. He said that regardless of whether it is Iraq, Syria or Saudi Arabia, the population is almost the same. There are only a few reasons from Egypt to maintain the original attitude.
"It is normal for countries to have different opinions, and everyone should seek common ground while reserving differences. However, some countries and British representatives exchange views privately, and it is best not to happen again."
Sir Barron didn't look at anyone, and he said some words of unity without saltiness.
His statement officially showed that the double-talk plan of the Kingdom of Iraq to replace Egypt in the early stage of the meeting to the Kingdom of Iraq and Egypt jointly leading the Arab League was bankrupt. Lord Barron ended the debate by strongly supporting Egypt's role in the Arab League.
