The Problem of Palestine In Palestine, the nationalism of Jews and
Arabs came into conflict because both groups viewed the area as a potential national state
Since the 1890s, the Zionist movement pushed for Palestine to become a Jewish state
Jews wanted Palestine because ancient Israel was located there
Arabs wanted Palestine because their ancestors lived there for centuries
Lots of Jews began to migrate to Palestine.

During WWI, Britain issued the BALFOUR DECLARATION – STATED BRITAIN’S INTENTION TO MAKE PALESTINE THE NATIONAL HOME OF THE JEWS. Added that this should not undermine the rights
of the non-Jewish people living there Attracted even more Jews to Palestine 1933, the Nazi regime in Germany began policies
that later led to the Holocaust During the 1930s, many Jews fled to Palestine Tensions grew, violence between Jews and
Muslims flared Britain tried to end violence by declaring the only
75,000 Jews could immigrate to Palestine in the next 5 years; after that, no more.
This made matters much worse!
