From Balfour to Ben Gvir's warnings

The article discusses the history of the Balfour Promise and its role in paving the way for the establishment of the State of Israel. In 1917, it was announced by the British government with backing from the Balfour Declaration, which expanded the British Mandate in Palestine to facilitate the creation of a national homeland for the Jews. This promise served as the foundation for transforming Palestine into a Jewish national home, leading to Jewish migration and settlement there, as well as strengthening the Israeli economy both before and after the state's founding in 1948. As British influence waned after World War II, the British government ended the mandate and supported the international decision by the United Nations to partition Palestine, which ultimately led to Israel's recognition in 1950. Relations between Britain and Israel have continued, with developments in military and economic cooperation. However, recent changes have occurred following British positions that imposed restrictions on Israeli settlement in the West Bank. Israel has warned about the dangers of these policies and reaffirmed that the Balfour Declaration was the fundamental starting point of British support for the establishment of Israel.
