Book Description
This book traces the history of palestine from the late nineteenth century to the outbreak of world war II. It examines in particular the palestinian arab response to jewish immigration and zionist expansion in palestine from the outset the palestinian arabs viwed all zionist activity in the contry as foreign invasion and strongly resisted it. however in 1917 the british occupation of palestine entirely altered the political environment and the palestinian response had to change accordingly.
Britain was never able to pursue a cohesive policy in palestine because it was beholden to two contradictory political commitments. In The hussein mcmahon correspondence britain was pledged to support an independent arab state comprising the hijaz and the arab provinces of the ottoman empire including palestine. Yet in the balfour declaration britain promised to sponsor a national home for the jews in palestine. After world war, I despite arab pressure the british commitment to zionism persisted.
The arabs tried to deflect the anglo-zionist convergence by attempting to prove that the jewish national homeland constituted a grave injustice to the arabs in addition to being impracticable and contrary to the interests of britain. Numerous arab revolts and protestations against zionism and british policies in palestine were however not able to bring about a change of british policy in the area. British strategic interests and the necessity of maintaining british rule in palestine in addition to zionist influence in london culminated in the denial of independence to palestine ane the imposition of zionism on the country. Based on both british and arab primary sources this book develops a number of interesting arguments about the history of continued on back flap.
