This document appears to be a page from a political essay or article analyzing the failure of US foreign policy in the Middle East. It argues that the US strategy of 'nation building' followed by 'abandonment' of strongmen (specifically mentioning Mubarak and Gaddafi) created chaos. The text traces the roots of this instability back to the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the artificial borders drawn by European powers (Sykes-Picot) that ignored tribal and religious customs.
