What did the British and French promise to the Arabs if they joined the fight against the Ottoman Empire?
Britain did not promise the Arabs anything in 1914. From July 1915 to January 1916, the British wrote the Hussein-McMahon Correspondence which was a set of letters between the British High Commissioner in Egypt (Sir Henry McMahon) and the Sharif of Mecca (Hussein ibn Ali). In these letters, the British promised the Arabs a unitary Arab State in the Middle East that would cover most of the Middle East. However, some areas were excepted, mostly along the Syrian coast. It is unclear whether or not Mandatory Palestine was also excepted because the terms are ambiguous. Arabs argue that since Palestine is not mentioned explicitly as an exception (whereas specific Syrian cities are mentioned), Palestine was included. The British and the Jews aregue that the reservation was for areas west of Damascus and all of Palestine is west of Damascus.
