    The #British were #colonialPowers indeed, but they never #colonized #Palestine in the sense they occupied #India as a #colony — namely to exploit the land for its resources and send back to the host country

    The British were neutral in #Turkey, which actually had a #TurkishYoke on #Palestine before #LeagueOfNations granted #Britain #mandate of Palestine

    Both #US (#MorgenthauMission) & Britain opposed #Zionism but #Ottomans were not prepared to accept peace on any terms
