Wild Turkey: It all depends on one's perspective. I look at things from a broader perspective. Your view that a nation is a sovereign territory and needs a "political boundary," is flawed. Political boundaries have rarely withstood the test of history. Just during the last century, the world atlas was redrawn several times. In 1945 alone, Germany was split into German Democratic Republic and Federal Republic of Germany. That was "political" split. The German nation, their history, culture or language did not split, or did it? With the collapse of the Berlin Wall, the "political boundary" that had been created, disappeared. The German nation remained as it has been for centuries. As for the current crisis in the Arab peninsula, it is just a game on the political chessboard. It has nothing to do with the entire Arab nation which has own distinctive language and script, rules and regulations, culture and traditions, values and morals.
