Sir John Glubb - The Fate of Empires 🔥🏙️🌎

Perhaps the only man who learned from history. Glubb's words are as prophetic as they are Terrifying.

Sir John Bagot Glubb, better known as Glubb Pasha (April 16, 1897 – March 17, 1986), was a British soldier best known for commanding Transjordan's Arab Legion 1939-1956. During World War I, he served in France and was then transferred to Iraq in 1920, a British colony at the time.

Educated at Cheltenham College, he became an officer of the Arab Legion in 1930. The next year he formed the Desert Patrol, an exclusively Bedouin force, to curb the raiding problem that plagued the southern part of the country. Within a few years he had managed to get the Bedouin to abandon their habit of raiding neighbor tribes and the raids were soon a thing of the past.

In 1939, Glubb succeeded Frederick G. Peake as the commander of the Arab Legion. During this period, he transformed the legion into the best trained force in the Arab world.

He remained as the commander of the Arab Legion until March 2, 1956 when he was dismissed by King Hussein who wanted to distance himself from the British after the Suez War. He spent the remainder of his life lecturing and writing books and articles, mostly on the Middle East and his experiences with the Arabs.

His nickname "Abu Hunaik" referred to his crooked jaw, a legacy of the First World War. The word "hunaik" was unfamiliar to me and I enquired of some Bedouin friends what it meant. They misunderstood me.

"Abu Hunaik? He was an Englishman, a soldier and a friend to the Bedouin a long time ago. It was he who built the fort at Wadi Rum".

This is quite remarkable when one realizes that these particular men were born more than 20 years after Glubb's definitive departure from the Middle East. They were vague about the name "Glubb Pasha" though...

Since retirement, he has published sixteen books, chiefly on the Middle East, and has lectured widely.
