  • The Balfour Declaration was signed in 1917. It set out British support for the creation of a homeland for the Jewish people in Palestine. But when the Balfour declaration was signed the British had already promised Palestine to Arabs as an independent state and promised the French government that it would be an internationally administered zone - and even then, most of the land was still under Ottoman control.
    So why did Britain make these three conflicting promises? How did it try to resolve them? And how did Britain’s strategy in the Middle East help to cause a century of conflict?

    This seemed to end suddenly. Will there be a second episode?

  • @nilesoien7867

    Is there an IWM video about TE Lawrence? I’d be interested in that.

  • @alexfortin7209

    Great video but so few views 😢

  • @robrodell

    Wonderful video, as always. Thank you. Note: the bottom part of Africa is not the Horn of Africa.

  • @shitbrick89

    And there I was thinking that Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Olden took the surrender of Damascus on 1 October 1918, hours before Feisal and Lawrence arrived.

  • @nicksallnow-smith7585

    Just one point; as I understand it, the Sykes-Picot lines were not random doodlings by diplomats, they were based on the Ottoman Administrative regions, as you would expect.

  • @kobedierckx2918

    Very very nice video! I found myself wondering what the origins of the Israel Palestine conflict are and needed to know. Now i see that it is more complicated than i first thought and that there are many groups/ countries involved.
