Peter Shambrook: The British betrayal of Palestine | The InnerView

During the First World War, Britain promised the Arabs of the Ottoman-ruled Middle East an independent state in exchange for revolting against the Ottomans. The British changed course soon after, breaking their promise to the Arabs, and paving a way for the creation of a Jewish state on Palestinian lands. Author and historical consultant, Peter Shambrook, highlights in detail how this betrayal played out in his book 'Policy of Deceit: Britain and Palestine, 1914-1939'. Shambrook's work exposes Britain's role in fostering one of the most bitter international conflicts of the past century. On this episode of The InnerView, Imran Garda talks to Peter Shambrook about how he researched the book, what surprised him, and how his findings change the global conversation about Palestine. 00:00 What has colonialism done to Palestine? 00:39 Meet Peter Shambrook 01:40 Shambrook's approach to the Palestinian question 02:48 British involvement in Palestine 08:16 Sharif of Mecca Hussein bin Ali 10:06 How the British failed to keep their promise 13:08 The Entente Cordiale Agreement 13:42 The Anglo-Russian Convention of 1907 14:21 British promises to the French 14:40 The Sykes-Picot Agreement 15:28 Is the Zionist narrative wrong? 17:30 The great challenge for political Zionism 18:24 How WWII and the Holocaust impacted Palestine 20:23 On the British government acknowledging its role in Palestine 21:53 Apologies for the past 22:15 Theresa May’s position on the Balfour Agreement 23:39 Three stepping stones towards conflict resolution Subscribe: http://trt.world/subscribe Livestream: http://trt.world/ytlive Facebook: http://trt.world/facebook Twitter: http://trt.world/twitter Instagram: http://trt.world/instagram Visit our website: http://trt.world
