Was was. Was 9 was. Was. Was. Was. Was. The voice of David Bengurion declaring the establishment of the state of israel in maine 1948. The Balfour Declaration was a letter sent by British Foreign secretary Arthur Balfour to a member of the british house of lords child on the 2nd of november 1917. This letter sent to a leading figure in the British Jewish Community 100 years ago had repercussions which even its authors cannot have imagined. Whatever its real intentions it went on to have a profound impact on the middle east and its people. And its effects still resonates across the region today. In 1914 these soldiers were. Writing on the battlefields of europe in the 1st world war the allies britain france and russia fought the central powers of germany austriahungary and the Ottoman Empire for 4 years but the land and sea war was not the only battleground. Muscle was also being flexed behind closed doors as allies conspired how to redraw maps to their own advantage when the conflict eventually ceased. Sir mark sykes for the british and french. For the french plotted how to divide the arab lands of the Ottoman Empire assuming it would finally fall. The psychs pekoe agreement plan secretly to divide it into french and british spheres of influence france taking most of the levant southern anatolia and the mosul area while the british extended their control over the southern levant expanding eastwards to baghdad and basra and all the nand between the arabian gulf and the french territory. Historic palestine then still part of the Ottoman Empire was a bone of contention and would be put under International Administration. That perished in force. All day but too long but it. Didnt mean that false. In. Their. Eyes bus trip. Youre good at just as. The men i dont. Or ditch their clay. Down that you and al that down there. And the mozart and see what it developed for you. And its really a little funny. A kebab was or that one of them while with your how to have fought can be or when i can live youre going to cut out weve got archer i think the british felt that there had not been enough government involvement in concluding the states because agreement with the french and in the process they had not really protected their interests well enough for a post world war era in which the British Empire would continue to seek to be a dominant force in European Affairs and so really officials across whitehall including mark sykes and self felt it was a bad deal if you have built youre going to act up if you look at it in the future not that havoc so you need you in every night or does that mean and you who would have my own view but i was a reference the when youre going home your new shoot from the scene walk around people feel well an article in the have been men ask who are levy. And i mean the clock i mean i look at that before and its a huge significance that when theyre making these discussions jews and so on is not discussed jews were not to feature in the new cuts at the middle east which was to be based on the idea of the arab nation. Zionism was the movement supporting the reestablishment of a jewish homeland in the area defined as the historic land of israel. The movement was active in early 20th century london especially because of the persecution of jews in russia and eastern europe. Theodore heard so had found a design a movement in the late 1900 century but jewish people in western europe had not rushed to support it because they were integrating quite successfully into society zionists believed that all jews should someday return to that country one of the problems was that palestine belong to the Ottoman Empire and the Ottoman Empire was not clear that it wanted massive jewish immigration into palestine and the British Government offered to let jews move unimpeded in great numbers into uganda if they wished. But in any event it really didnt happen and it didnt happen because a majority of scientists felt that hurts or was selling them out and that the only place for jews to move back to work at least conscious zionist jews to move back to was palestine in this i think britain began to look at the Zionist Movement as a possible partner in justifying a reed to go she a sions of their agreement with the french you see for britain simply to claim territory against what theyd already concluded in the green that with france could create diplomatic problems for the british the. If they were to make a claim to palestine not out of selfinterest but in order to advance a great historic ideal of the restoration of the jewish people to the legal homeland that this could justify an adjustment of the terms of the sites because. In a way that the french would accept the british wanted somehow and more and more increasingly they felt that the jews held the key to winning the war. And so they had to figure out how to bribe the jews to support them. Sir mark sykes had succeeded in drawing the line he wanted from acre in the west to clear cook in the east but for some in government this was not enough. The british were using the Jewish National movement to secure palestine for themselves is this is what highlights ben is really going to find to open ears of 10 downing street in the Foreign Office in the Colonial Office and its paving the way towards that critical decision in november of 1970 ad so i think you can direct you can draw a direct connection between britains sudden ignore legitimate of zionism and idea at ideal. And what they were dissatisfied with the term the psychs because. I am fights was a chemistry lecturer in manchester who had become a prominent member of the british Dynasty Movement he was politically well connected and rubbed shoulders with senior figures in government so high in vitamin was russian by birth he was a chemist. And then he joined the Zionist Movement. He climbed in the Zionist Movement he moved to grow. Britain before the war well before the war maybe 10 years before the war began he was not before the war very well known in the english Zionist Movement he was pretty well known in the World Zionist Federation but he was by no means the most visible zionist when world war one began in great britain. Invites many to rhodes in his memoirs about having been introduced to a British Government minister Herbert Samuel. Samuel was jewish but vitamine was apparently concerned that he might be anti finest. However Herbert Samual turned out to be extremely receptive to vitamin and went on to write an official memo in 1950 setting out in a number of different possibilities for palestine and the jewish people. And was. So. Health minister. For homework and man i love. B. C. s it was who were caught up with the car and for us the in. Latin have are. Who we are when we are who would be. On americas most. Brittany kept up with the camera. Nor should the silly philosophy in badminton tell how to help them a lot them a lot and what fear only a hoodie year old see the. Shimmering albritton year for last year. But then he suddenly had the lawyer who the commonwealth yannick am but he didnt find willing ears in whitehall or the Colonial Office for schemes that involved the establishment of a jewish state in palestine britain was really concerned with 2 things by the time that the 1st world war had broken out they want to do with the war 1st and foremost this was an imperative for the survival of britain and its empire and secondly they wanted to ensure that coming out of the war victorious that their empire would benefit from the victory so at this stage high invites and Herbert Samuels ideas about the rights of the jews to resettle in palestine the. Not find much sympathy in the corridors of power in london. Disappointed fights men wrote to a friend asking whether there wasnt at least a discussion to be had about what he called the chance for the jewish people. I realize of course he went on we cannot claim anything we are much too atomized for its. What the debate did do however was to throw together fights man the russian jewish immigrant searching for a homeland and refuge from persecution with Herbert Samuel and lord rothschild for members of the british jewish elite established in society and part of the political and capitalist class. So it isnt for the most part of course all of the community was actually in the minority but certainly most of all within the jewish elite because it threatened the notion of them as 100 percent committed members of British Society and this was complete and that for somebody like Edwin Montague to become secretary of state for india for him zionism is his Worst Nightmare the idea that jews are not satisfied simply with being citizens of britain or other countries around the world theyre always longing to go back to the land of israel for him he wanted to demonstrate that the jews of britain were 1st of foremost british its important to remember that for people like rothschild zionism it actually been a threat you see the elite in british jewelry had fought for generations to gain acceptance in British Society it was only with the arrival of disraeli and that i can century that jews entered parliament and could rise to become Prime Minister and for people of. So high finance or banking interests the really lete of the Jewish Community in britain their struggle to demonstrate their place in British Society then design is with its claims that jews were a people apart and should be a nationalist movement in their own right or another with barely a amberley army. And even a corrupt. How to get. Hold. Of but i would be when i. Meant get 50 i wouldnt actually be the old the field but i would be everyman german general up there and i do have to shear. A bit of time even for my honey brand of beer and sammy of bosh who will of us out the head if mark misses you how to say you you well its an x. Vitamin vien. In much of the love in the mind of the need of mental stability. Keep the interest ability your. Vitamin. The fim. Its vitamin that makes the difference and i think he was probably unique in his ability to persuade the leading british figures that the jews were in fact a vast sub to raney and influence which they were not. That all jews were zionists which was far from the truth and that therefore the big key to winning jewish support was to offer them palestine vitamin talked up the degree to which the Jewish Community supported zionism in order to get his message across to the government. But for the british it seemed to be about self interest about winning the war recognizing zionism would be close to limb to gaining global juice the poor it objective and which should start its future resting so the british motives for supporting zionism will be we can boil it down to 2 elements of british self interest at that time not an emotional interest in science them or a love of jews and the jewish plight in their desire for the return of the jews to the holy land no for very specific self interests matters of policy they were 1st of all all of the British Government agreed that they wanted to mobilize behind britain and the allies this idea of jewish power in the world. They were like all of the different policy elites in the war believe this in the notion that jews have tremendous influence in the corridors of power around the globe if the British Government appeared to support zionism they would win over world jewry to their side and all that entailed the british were convinced that zionism was really at the center of the jewish holocaust. In may 916 sir mark sykes had agreed his tikrit deal with the french psychs picoult would form the basis of the future carve up of the old Ottoman Empire. So he immediately turned his attention to palestine still part of the Ottoman Empire and how to use dynasty ambitions to outmaneuver the french. Formal contact between the British Government and the zionist followed he immediately phoned Herbert Samuel and told him about the plan and Herbert Samuel then phoned him vitamin and vitamin brought with him in a home sokolow this meeting took place on the 11th of april 916. 00 it took place at moses castors house in maida vale. And gaster wrote in his diary afterwards how proud he was that this meeting which he thought was the most important meeting that had ever taken place in the history of zionism had taken place at his house. Mark sykes the. Head of our once she doesnt know my gust of law nowhere can and will must stand the jelly hoodie must by then. Rise one who only in the north who were in the fight that will do the most disgusting very quickly understands that sykes is looking to gain support from suppose it jewish power in the world and gets to works with this idea and manipulates this to consolidate sykess interest in science and we see actually the British Government becomes very close already in nazi 16 of issuing a public declaration of support for zionism there in the end this doesnt happen that year the plan sykes got Herbert Samuels to pass on to the zionist leaders involved joint british French Administration of palestine and a charter guaranteeing british support for the line isnt. But his idea was rejected. They didnt want an anglofrench condominium in
