Although Palestine Problem is the result of many factors, colonialism, imperialism and neo-imperialism are the dominant ones. The imperial and colonial powers after the defeat of the Ottoman Empire in the First World War became the sole Arbitrator in the world affairs and the imperialist British acquired the Palestine Province that was the backwater region of the Ottoman Empire, which was named the British Mandate. The British paved the way for a Jewish State by declaring Belfour declaration. The text reads as under:
Foreign Office,
November 2nd, 1917
Dear Lord Rothschild,
I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty’s Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by the Cabinet.
His Majesty’s Government view with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors 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, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country.
I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation.
Yours
Sd/- (Arthur James Balfour)

مجھے شاہ برطانیہ کی طرف سے آپ کو بتاتے ہوئے ازحد خوشی ہو رہی ہے کہ درج ذیل اعلان صہیونی یہودیوں کی امیدوں کے ساتھ ہماری ہمدردی کا اظہار ہے اور اس کی توثیق ہماری کیبینیٹ بھی کر چکی ہے
شاہ برطانیہ کی حکومت فلسطین میں ایک یہودی ریاست کے قیام کی حامی ہے اور اس مقصد کو حاصل کرنے کے لیے اپنی ہر ممکن صلاحیت کو بروئے کار لائے گی مگر اس بات کو مدِ نظر رکھا جائے کہ فلسطین کی موجودہ غیر یہودی آبادی کے شہری و مذہبی حقوق یا دوسرے ممالک میں یہودیوں کی سیاسی حیثیت کو نقصان نہ پہنچے۔
میں بہت ممنون ہوں گا اگر اس اعلان کو صہیونی فیڈریشن کے علم میں بھی لایا جائے۔
آپ کا مخلص

प्रिय लॉर्ड रोथ्सचाइल्ड,
मुझे शाहे बरतानिया की ओर से आपको बताने में बहुत खुशी हो रही है कि निम्नलिखित घोषणा सहयुनी यहदियों की आकांक्षाओं के प्रति हमारी सहानुभूति का इज़हार है, जिसे कैबिनेट के समक्ष प्रस्तुत किया गया है और जिसे कैबिनेट ने मंजूरी दे दी है।
शाहे बरतानिया फिलिस्तीन में यहूदी लोगों के लिए एक देश की स्थापना के पक्ष में है, और इस उद्देश्य की प्राप्ति को सुविधाजनक बनाने के लिए अपने सर्वोत्तम प्रयासों का उपयोग करेगी। यह स्पष्ट रूप से समझा जाता है कि ऐसा कुछ भी नहीं किया जाएगा जो मौजूदा गैर-यहूदी समुदायों के नागरिक और धार्मिक अधिकारों, या किसी अन्य देश में यहूदियों द्वारा प्राप्त अधिकारों और राजनीतिक स्थिति को नुकसान पहुंचेगा।
यदि आप इस घोषणा को सहयुनी संघ के संज्ञान में लाएंगे तो मैं आभारी रहूंगा।
आपका

Upon prima facie perusal of the letter shows that the British colonial power in collaboration with Zionists, a political gang, is committed to do their best to establish a Jewish State in the land of Palestine and when the sun of the British empire set, their successor Uncle Sam is making all possible efforts to strengthen their agent Israel in the Middle East dominantly for the neo-imperialist agenda.
Many last decades have witnessed that the conditions mentioned in the letter to safeguard the civil and religious rights for non-Jewish communities in Palestine were inserted in the doc only to fool the Muslims and Arabs.
Now we should understand some keywords used in the letter:
Naturally, our mind wants to know who Rothschild is, who is so prominent that the official the imperial and colonialist British empire addressees his to letter to him to speak out the colonial of mind of the west. Rothschild is family name. This is a known capitalist dynasty having huge wealth and playing a vital in achieving the capitalist interests through major European powers and Uncle Sam (United States). The Balfour Declaration was addressed to Lionel Walter, 2nd Lord Rothschild (1868-1937). He was a British banker and a member of the Rothschild family, who was also the unofficial leader of the British Jewish community at that time.
Arthur James Balfour
Arthur James Balfour (1848-1930) was a British statesman and politician who served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1902 to 1905. He is also notable for his role in issuing the Balfour Declaration in 1917. At the time of issuing the Balfour Declaration, he held the designation of Foreign Secretary of the United Kingdom. At the time of the Balfour Declaration in 1917, the British monarch was King George V. He was the King of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and Emperor of India from May 6, 1910, until his death in 1936 and what is Zionism?
Zionism
Zionism is a nationalist movement that emerged in the late 19th century, primarily among Jewish people, with the goal of establishing a Jewish homeland in Palestine. We can see that the very foundation and genesis of Zionism is illegal as it is a movement to establish a home land by destroying the homes of others.
The promises have been made in this declaration to make every effort to achieve the objectives of Zionists and now we witness the Uncle Sam performing at his best in Gaza and Lebanon in destroying Arabs and Muslims in Palestine to protect and expand his nurtured child that is Israel. Uncle Sam has already done a good job in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and a number of other Muslim and Arab countries. The track record of Uncle Sam in reference to war crimes and crimes against humanity along with his numerous agents particularly the Jewish establishment in Israel is shamelessly impressive.
