On the 109th anniversary of the #Balfour_Declaration, I reflect on the injustice embedded in its language: reducing the people of Palestine to “non-Jewish communities,” acknowledging their civil and religious rights while denying recognition of their national and political rights. Under the #British_Mandate, this logic translated into support for Zionist institutions while Palestinians were denied representation, independence and sovereignty.
Through this lens, the first #Trump administration’s closure of the independent #US_Consulate in #Jerusalem and its merger into the Embassy to Israel in 2019 represented a profound diplomatic regression: placing relations with Palestinians under Washington’s mission to the occupying power.
Today, even the civil and religious rights mentioned in Balfour’s declaration are violated as a settler-colonial project advances through displacement and dispossession.
Britain’s recognition of #Palestine in 2025 was an important step. It does not discharge its historical responsibility. Recognition must be accompanied by an explicit apology and concrete action to end the occupation and remedy the enduring injustice.
Nonetheless, Israel’s retaliation against Britain’s planned restrictions on settlement goods—including action against its consulate in Jerusalem—is, in my view, coercive diplomacy aimed at deterring accountability for illegal settlements.
We are a people, not religious communities. We have a homeland and an inalienable right to self-determination. We do not need another promise; we need justice for the consequences of the first.

@NormalIslandNws Britain is responsible for every drop of blood in the Levant since #Balfour_Declaration. . This is the root of all evil in the area.
@akkaakka66 @CensoredHumans Since #Balfour_Declaration Britain is responsible for every drop of blood spilled in Palestine vicinity.
If it weren't for the British adoption of the Zionist movement the world would not have heard of the Zionist colony in occupied Palestine.

World War I, World War II and the Balfour Declaration used to create "Israel" in 1948.
A speech in 1961 by a former zionist revealing WW I and WW II related to the Balfour Declaration written by Arthur Balfour issued by the British government in 1917 in support of a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine then an Ottoman region.

@tajimustafa Spot on. Indeed the #Balfour_Declaration, and the #sykes_picot agreement are the root of all evil in the middle East.
@AJArabic كل شيئ بدأ منذ نشأة الحركة الصهيونية و إتفاقها مع بريطانيا و دول أخرى على هجرة اليهود إلى فلسطين ثم بدأ تنفيد مخطط الإستيلاء على أملاك الفلسطينيين و قتلهم و تشريدهم و تهجيرهم و محاصرتهم و إبادتهم.

@TRobinsonNewEra So do the #Palestine they have to take back their land, and **** to #Balfour_Declaration #FreePalestine #Gaza
@nxt888 what you should know about Palestine, is that if it weren't for the Arab Rulers treason, going back to accepting #Balfour_Declaration, the world would not have heard of the Zionist Genocide, and there'd have been no Israel to begin with.

" Today, May 15, marks the 77th anniversary of the #Nakba. On this occasion, I would like to present a copy of the #Balfour_Declaration (1917) to those who deny the Palestinians' right to an #Independent_State on their historic land. So as you can see even Balfour himself knew it was “#PALESTINE” and states it clearly."

In November 1917, Britain’s #Balfour_Declaration opened the door to the founding of #Israel 30 years later. And it has had a major impact on the #Middle_East.
The #British government issued a public statement that contained a letter from Foreign Minister Arthur Balfour to Lord Lionel Walter Rothschild, a leader of the British Jewish community. He forwarded it to the #Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland. It began, “His Majesty’s Government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people” and was the first public statement of support for Zionism by a major political power. #Gaza #Palestine
Do you know the value of this video in disturbing the Israeli media!
The British capital, #London (the country that founded the entity, the #Balfour_Declaration) is covered with posters demanding the arrest of #Netanyahu as a war criminal!

IsraHell is no more than a FOB bridgehead for the Colonial west, initially initiated by the British later adopted by whole EU n US. Had the British government not endorsed the Zionist movement through #Balfour_Declaration, the world wouldn't have heard of IsraHell.
Whether we like it or not, IsraHell is a continuation of the #Crusade_Wars; This is why we are fully confident that IsraHell's fate will be the same as the previous failed invasions.
If there were hordes of people marching on the streets of Europe chanting "F**K THE JEWS"... there would rightly be outrage from every European leader & newspaper.
This is a video of hordes of Israelis marching through #Amsterdam chanting "F**K THE ARABS".
NO OUTRAGE

At the time the Zionist Lobby carried Zero weight in the power corridor both in UK and US.
Had the British not endorsed the Zionists no one would have heard about them. #Balfour_Declaration was the kiss of life to the Zionist movement.
Still it carried no legal weight until the declaration was integrated in the mandate issued by so called League of Nations.
On this day in 1917, 2nd November, the Balfour Declaration was signed. It could be argued that this was the first blow in the ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the genocide in #Gaza today.
It marked an intent for colonial occupation by the British, which later became an occupation supported and sustained by the United States.
It was an evil act where a section of the European population were promised the land inhabited by the Palestinians for centuries, by a power that had no right to make such a promise.

Had Colonial Britain not embraced Zionist movement through #Balfour_declaration the world wouldn't have heard of the Zionist Colony in Occupied Palestine.
Britain, later on inherited by U.S., is responsible for every drop of blood spilled in Palestine.
#Balfour_declaration of and by itself carried no legal weight, until it was integrated in the mandate issued by so called League of Nations, the predecessor of the UN chaired by the illegal gang of colonial powers.
These facts should never be forgotten.
Prof David Fromkin in his brilliant book A Peace to End All Peace, questioned whether the geopolitical order imposed by the European Imperial powers post ww1, is sustainable as it deeply contradicts the deeply rooted local civilization.
