Found this gem in Daniel Myerson's Blood and Splendor.

"With a heart full of sorrow, I say there is still no Iraqi people, but only unimaginable masses of human beings devoid of any patriotic ideas, imbued with religious traditions and absurdities, connected by no common tie, giving ear to evil, prone to anarchy and perpetually ready to rise against any government whatsoever."

King Faisal I of Iraq, 1933
