The Palestine Deception. Dieser Artikel ist nicht verfügbar.The Palestine Deception

Palestine Deception by J. M. N. Jeffries is a sustained critique of British policy and Zionist diplomacy in the years surrounding the First World War and the Mandate period. Writing as a contemporary observer, Jeffries argues that official statements and international agreements masked a political process that disregarded prior commitments and the demographic realities of the region. The book frames the Balfour Declaration and subsequent administrative decisions as the product of pressure, propaganda, and strategic calculation rather than transparent statecraft. Direct and prosecutorial in tone, it presents the Palestine question not as an inevitable clash of national aspirations but as the outcome of diplomatic maneuvering and imperial policy choices whose consequences would reverberate far beyond the Mandate era.
