Britain was interested in preventing strife and warfare in the Middle East as well as making sure that they could continue to get petroleum from other Arab countries. Therefore, they kowtowed to pressure from Arabs in the Mandate of Palestine to rescind permission for Jews to immigrate to Mandatory Palestine in violation of the terms of the Mandate.

Explain the significance of the Balfour Declaration for Canada?

The Balfour Declaration had no significance for Canada; it was an agreement to provide for the establishment of a Jewish National Homeland in what would become Mandatory Palestine.The Balfour Declaration was the first promise by the British Empire to give the Jewish people a national home in Palestine. It was the first major success of the Zionist Movement and led to increased pressure by Jews to immigrate to the territory and set the foundations of a new Jewish State-to-be. As the Zionists worked to create a Jewish state, the support of one of the world's largest powers, that was soon to take over Palestine, was crucial. This also changed the future trajectory of Israel/Palestine as a region, allowing the seeds of Israel's creation to be sown.

How is Great Britain related to the Arab-Israeli Conflict?

It was during the British occupation of Mandatory Palestine that the Zionist dream of creating a Jewish State in the Middle East was finally realized in large portion. The influx of a large foreign Jewish population made a Jewish State viable and therefore allowed for the beginnings of the Arab-Israeli Conflict. Additionally, the British failed to adequately maintain the peace between the different communities, allowing the small internecine conflicts and pogroms to become more sporadic militia fights and eventually boiling to proper war.

Which country became independent legally Israel or Palestine?

Why do I have to choose? According to UN Resolution 181, the Mandate of Palestine was divided into a Jewish and an Arab State with each state being given the right to become independent in the territory. The Jews declared independence according to this permission in 1948 with the State of Israel. The Arabs used this permission to declare a state-in-absentia in 1988 called Palestine. In 1993, the Oslo Accords granted land to the Palestinian Authority, the same agency that declared a State of Palestine. The International Court of Justice held that the UN Resolution worked as a legal basis for both Israel and Palestine.
