Ottoman Turkeys decision to ally with Germany in the First World
War led directly to the British (and French) conquest of the Middle
East and sealed the fate of Palestine. In a monstrous betrayal of
its people, 93 percent of them Arab, the November 1917 Balfour
Declaration withheld the independence they rightly anticipated and
for strategic reasons earmarked Palestine as a National Home for
the Jewish People. Ronald Storrs, a British Foreign and Colonial
Office official, remarked that The U.K. proposed to hand
(Palestine), without consulting the occupants, to a third party;
and what sort of third party! The result was the foundation of
Israel in 1948. Through ethnic cleansing and massacre the new state
drove out helpless Palestinian victims of Perfidious Albion, in
whom London at no stage showed the slightest interest. They were
condemned to seventy years in refugee camps or to second-class
citizenship of Israel as, in the words of an Israeli Foreign
Minister, the land-grab state was born in sin. Credit for this
shameful act is generally given to the Zionist supporters of
Theodor Herzl. But Britain cleared the way by expelling the Mufti
of Jerusalem, the Palestinians only leader, providing the Zionists,
who extraordinarily made concurrent overtures to Hitler and
Mussolini, with military training in Britains Second World War
campaigns in Iraq and Syria. Itself ejected by its ungrateful
protege, Britain lost all the aims of its Declaration (no base to
guard the Suez Canal, no Haifa port, no railway to Iraq and no oil
pipeline) and all its prestige in the Arab World.
