Who drove the Arabs out of the land of Palestine in 1947 and 1948?
What was the Balfour Declaration and how did it contribute to the conflict?
The Balfour Declaration was a letter from the British government to Baron Rothschild in 1917, expressing support for the establishment of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine. This declaration created conflicting promises to both Jews and Arabs in the land, leading to tensions and eventually conflict between the two groups.
