The conflict between the Middle East and Britain has historical roots, primarily stemming from British colonialism and Imperialism in the region during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Key events include the Balfour Declaration of 1917, which supported a Jewish homeland in Palestine, and the subsequent British mandate over Palestine, leading to tensions between Jewish and Arab populations. Additionally, Britain's involvement in the Sykes-Picot Agreement and its post-WWI actions contributed to the region's political fragmentation and unrest, fostering long-standing grievances that continue to influence relations today.
