I saw this link posted on Ben Witherington blog on Beliefnet – and thought it was interesting:
“Who has controlled the Middle East over the course of history? Pretty much everyone. Egyptians, Turks, Jews, Romans, Arabs, Persians, Europeans…the list goes on. Who will control the Middle East today? That is a much bigger question.”
You can see more interesting maps of history at the Maps of War website – well worth the visit!
