THE MOMENTOUS STATEMENT made just over a century ago on behalf of Britain’s cabinet on November 2, 1917, by the secretary of state for foreign affairs, Arthur James Balfour — what has come to be known as the Balfour Declaration — comprised a single sentence: His Majesty’s government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non - Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country. If before World War I many prescient Palestinians had begun to regard the Zionist movement as a threat, the Balfour Declaration introduced a new and fearsome element. In the soft, deceptive language of diplomacy, with its ambiguous phrase approving “the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people,” the declaration effectively pledged Britain’s support for Theodor Herzl’s aims of Jewish statehood, sovereignty, and control of immigration in the whole of Palestine.

Christus sagte: Wenn ihr euch ganz Gott hingeben und das Licht der Kinder Adams sein wollt, vergebt denen, die euch Böses getan haben, besucht die Kranken, die euch nicht besuchen, seid freundlich zu denen, die unfreundlich zu euch sind und leiht denen [Geld], die euch nichts zurückzahlen.
