The Zionist Masquerade is a new history of the birth of the
Anglo-Zionist alliance during the Great War - a critical chapter in
the history of the Zionist-Palestinian conflict. James Renton
argues that the Balfour Declaration was the result of a wider
phenomenon of British propaganda policies during World War I that
were driven by mistaken conceptions of ethnicity, ethnic power and
nationalism. From this vantage point, Renton contends that while a
number of Zionist activists played a crucial role in the making of
the Balfour Declaration, the end result was not the great Zionist
victory that has been widely assumed. Although the Declaration came
to be the basis for the British Mandate for Palestine, which made a
Jewish State possible thirty years later, this was far from being
the original intention of the British Government. The primary
purpose of Britain's wartime support for Zionism was to secure
Jewish backing for the war effort. The unintended consequences of
this policy, however, were to be explosive and far-reaching.
