For those not sure when, how, & why the Palestine conflict began:
In 1917, Britain planned for a pro-British Zionist outpost in the Middle East.
They also hoped to keep European Jews out of western Europe (antisemitism).
So, in the 1920s, Britain brought them in & gave them Palestinian land without consulting the indigenous owners.
The strife began... & continues.
