Kedourie argues that these missteps stemmed from the "Chatham House version" of understanding the region, a perspective promoted by Toynbee and his associates. It serves as a cautionary guide for those attempting to manipulate Middle Eastern affairs for their own benefit, emphasizing the complexities and challenges inherent in the region's politics.
