Cock-up or conspiracy? You decide. Read Curzon, Churchill, Weizmann, Balfour, T.E. Lawrence, and others in their own words.

    1.0 out of 5 stars There is a far better explanation of the documents found by Ms Ingrams.
    Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2015
    The documents don't speak for themselves. They are framed in a spin.
    The Zionists did not want an immediate statehood. They recognized that would lead to an unstable government because of the relatively small number of Jews, only 10% in all Palestine, even though they were 2/3rds in the Jerusalem Area. Herbert Samuels in 1914 in his suggestion to the War Cabinet therefore considered five alternative plans and decided to recommend British Annexation of Palestine. Nothing came of his suggestion.
    The Balfour Declaration was not clear at British suggestion because it did not want to stir up the Arabs. The first draft was by Harry Sacher and that would have made clear that what was intended was a two step process with the first step being a National Home, and the second step would be statehood. In 1919 Sacher wrote a book comparing 5 alternatives for attaining a Jewish Palestine and recommended placing the national rights, i.e. the collective political rights to self-determination in trust until the Jewish population became a majority and had the capability of exercising sovereignty.
    This was the plan adopted at San Remo in 1920. Sacher's book was entitled "A Jewish Palestine: the Jewish case for a British trusteeship."
    The aid of the Arabs as a result of the Hussein-McMahon correspondence was small potatoes as finally admitted by TE Lawrence. It was in the Arabian Peninsula and not in the entire Levant as promised by Hussein. In Palestine no Arabs fought on the Allied side and many fought for the Ottoman Empire. Independence was promised in those areas where the Arabs won the territory. It was not intended to sacrifice British lives and then hand over territory to the Arabs.
    What was intended was to give the Jews the opportunity to take what had been a land of milk and honey, and turned into a malarial wasteland by many years of Ottoman and other Moslem rule, and rejuvenate it so that it could support a large number of people. This recrudescence has come about. The British tried their best to renege on their promise to the Jews, mostly by using the lack of clarity over the purpose of their policy to deny statehood to the Jews when it had been earned. They did their best to keep their promise to the Arabs by the 1939 White Paper, and by, in 1948, providing guns and ammunition and professional officers to Jordan via the Arab Legion and doing its best to assure that Israel would lose in a contest of arms after its withdrawal as trustee. Their blockade of Jews from Israel was held, by the League of Nations Permanent Mandates Commission to be ultra vires. Nevertheless Britain enforced this illegal policy for many years, contributing the the death of many Jews in the Holocaust.

    In the context of modern history this collection of cabinet papers is full of insight. The petty squabbling and spite show clearly why there are problems in that area. If this sort of thing leaked out about current issues it would bring the government of several countries down. This material should be on the school curriculum rather than being ignored by the sanitisers of history taught in this country.
