Here are just a few fisking points:
1. Gt. Britain's involvement in Palestine with its consuls from 1839 and the whole Christain Restoration ideology for some three centuries - starting with the 1621 pamphlet of MP Sir Henry Finch is ignored (1:08) but is later mentioned (5:23). It's political analysis leads off with an immediate introduction of World War One.
2. What do they mean by "all of Palestine"? (2:00) TransJordan included? If so, what happened to it? Why was it excluded from the terms of the Mandate which were to reconstitute the national homeland for the Jews?
3. A "first promise" of the "contradictory promises" (3:01) is that of McMahon. But what of the November 9, 1914 meeting of the British Cabinet? Here:
Zionism was first discussed at a British Cabinet level on 9 November 1914, four days after Britain's declaration of war on the Ottoman Empire. David Lloyd George, then Chancellor of the Exchequer "referred to the ultimate destiny of Palestine."...In a discussion after the meeting with fellow Zionist and President of the Local Government Board Herbert Samuel, Lloyd George assured him that "he was very keen to see a Jewish state established in Palestine."
4. Did McMahon mean (3:10) by mentioning an "Arab state" also Palestine? Or was he referring to everywhere else but Palestine?
5. Some Arabs joined the war effort (3:19)? How many? How representative were they? Jews also joined the effort under the British flag. And which "land" did the Arabs drive out the Turks? It wasn't "Palestine" for the Jews of the Jewish Legion assisted with that.
See how simply devious they are. And there's more.
