Balfour: Seeds of Discord

A hundred years since Britain's infamous declaration, its repercussions are still felt across the Middle East today. The Balfour Declaration was a public promise by the British government during World War One, announcing support for the establishment of "a national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine. Palestine was still a part of the Ottoman Empire at the time, with a minority Jewish population.
