    Nope. Hint: In this battle the Ottomans greatly outnumbered their foe, and the results were to be expected.


    For further hints, insert a reputation point.

Conference also weighed political, economic, and moral effect both upon Central and Allied powers under most unfavorable aspect from Allied point of view. General conclusions reached were necessity for adoption of purely defensive attitude on all secondary fronts and withdrawing surplus troops for duty on western front. By thus strengthening western front [those attending] believed Allies could hold until American forces arrive in numbers sufficient to gain ascendancy."

    How were the results of that to be expected? By expected I do not mean "Holywood expected", by which the underdog always wins. Not the siege of Malta.
