From the Paper:

"Arab countries like Egypt, Iran and Iraq were on the receiving end of loans from the British Government with dire consequence for each. In the late 1800's Egypt had borrowed millions from both Britain and France, and, unable to pay it back, was transformed into a mandate of both Britain and France. Known as the Public Debt Commission, representatives from Britain and France took over Egypt's finances, and when King Isma'il tried to oust them, he himself was ousted and replaced with someone more friendly to this takeover. This helped Britain gain control of the Suez Canal, one of the most important waterways in the Middle East. Both Iran and Iraq sold Britain oil concessions in order to help stabilize their economies."
