The role of the Zionist organization in the colonial conspiracies that targeted Palestine during the period (1914-1922 AD)

Abstract

The problem of this study comes from the fact that it deals with the relationship of the Zionist organization with the colonial conspiracies that targeted Palestine and the Levant between the years 1914-1922 AD, through tracing the colonial competition over this region, and understanding the nature of the British role. This study provides an answer to the following questions: What is the relationship between Zionism and the ruling elite in Britain, and also what was the impact of the Zionist-British relationship on the succession of colonial agreements that targeted Palestine at the time? This study aims to answer the following main question: How was Zionist diplomacy able to weave its relationship with the colonial states and with the Arab leaderships in order to achieve its goals? The importance of this study stems from the fact that it gives us a complete vision of the nature of the Zionist political and practical mind since the beginning of its practice of diplomatic work. In order to achieve its objectives, the study relied on the descriptive analytical approach to historical events and phenomena. The study was divided into three sections, as follows: Section One: The environments that paved the way for Britain’s relationship with the Arabs and the Zionists. Section Two: The success of British diplomacy. Section Three: The betrayal of the allies towards the Arabs or understandings that were agreed upon. The study reached several results and recommendations, the most prominent of which is: the necessity of standing in the face of the Zionist project and preventing it from continuing to advance, on the condition of liberation from the approach of work, thinking and management that is still prevalent among many Palestinian and Arab political elites. Several meetings and correspondence took place between representatives of Zionist Britain and the sons of Sharif Hussein, which resulted in mutual agreements. Despite the conflict of interests between these three parties, and despite their conflict with the interests of French influence, Britain was able to conclude secret and public agreements with each party separately, and was able to strengthen its alliances during the First World War.
