As evidence of leaked strategies seeking to divide the Arab World into petty states, the New York Times has published an analytical study prepared by its centre on remapping of the Middle East in which five Arab countries will be divided into 14 petty states.

The study covers five countries: Syria, Libya, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Yemen, and says the anticipation is triggered by the Arab Spring revolutions.

Regarding Syria, the New York Times expected the country to divide in three states due to religious and communal conflict; one is the Alwite sect that has ruled Syria for decades, to which the current President Bashar Assad belongs. The paper anticipates the Alwites to establish their state along the Syrian coast of the Mediterranean Sea, besides a state for the Kurds that extends to Kurdistan in Iraq, and Syria's Sunnis will join the Sunni provinces in Iraq to form Sunnistan.

Regarding Iraq, the land that has been hard hit by communal violence after the US invasion, is expected, according to the American newspaper, that its north will unite with north of Syria in a "Kurds" state, and the Sunnis will head for unity with Sunnis in Syria and the rest of the country will remain for the Shiite.

Concerning Libya, the NY Times anticipated it to break up into three petty states, one in the northwest with Tripoli as its capital, and the other in the east that will belong to Benghazi besides Fazan state, part of Sabha, known for its allegiance to Gaddafi during 17th February Revolution.

Yemen is expected to divide in two Yemens, north Yemen and South Yemen. Saudi Arabia will fragment into five states, "Habistan" in the centre and another in the west that will include Mecca, Medina and Jeddah; a third state in the south, a fourth one in the east with Damam besides a fifth state in the north.

The entire Yemen, or at least its south, is likely to become part of Saudi Arabia, whose trade almost entirely depends on the sea. An outlet to the Arabian Sea will reduce total dependence on Hormuz strait which Saudi Arabia fears Iran's virtual control to prevent the Gulf States from its use.

The study analysts are of the view that the fragmentation and the series of divisions caused by ethnic and communal conflicts and differences will remap the Middle East, a more tragic image since Sikes Picot Agreement of 1916.

It is worth noting that the remapping published by the New York Times, does not include other countries such as Egypt, Tunis, Algeria, Sudan and Morocco.

I doubt the US will do that. Too expensive in men and treasure. But it would seem to be a good idea to split the place along other boarders than now exist.

I'm looking at the NYtimes now, and I see no such plan.

So I call BS on your entire post.

The NY Times has a center for remapping of the Middle East? Since when did the NY Times become a political entity involved in anything other than bias reporting and influence manipulation?

Sounds like someone is misinterpreting a study on potential divisions in the ME and potential outcomes with some sort of strategy to be enacted by someone.
