Building, Jerusalem 241 Introduction any books have been published about Israel and the Jewish National Home. Some are for it, some against M it; nearly all are spirited, or even passionate in praise or denunciation. Most of them have as a theme some particular aspect. What is the truth about the country to which, in spite of all opposition, over a million Jews have moved in a few years, and will the State of Israel last? So far it has not been very easy to ascertain. War with the Arabs followed immediately upon the State’s creation on 14th May, 1948, and war conditions continued on and off for some fourteen months. The next eighteen months were a time for recovery and too soon to judge how the State was shaping. By the third year of its existence, in the summer of 1951, many decisions had been taken by the Government, basic laws had been passed by its Parliament and its form was becoming clear. Having lived for many years in the Arab Middle East, I considered that it would be of most unusual interest to me to see the new Israel, the land that hitherto I had known only as part of Palestine, that had been the subject of many bitter arguments, the scene of so much fighting. Now that the new State existed, my object in visiting it was to record all that I could about it, as accurately as possible, in a factual way, avoiding controversial politics of the past and that aftermath of the war, the Arab refugee problem. No sooner had I landed than I began to see about me indications of another struggle in being. The contest there now is not with the Arabs, but against Nature and hazardous economic conditions. The difficulties with which the Israelis are faced are in one way self-imposed, and the Jews may be criticized for some of their past actions, but that docs not reduce the interest that their present fight arouses at close iarters. Most spectators near to such a scene, whatever Scir political views, will, I think, find that applause is wrung from them. In the last four years the population has been doubled by • immigration. No limit was set, for the country was deliberately laid open to all Jews from all over the world. Full immigra- tion is a principle by which the greatest store is set, one which II unda^ str€» may be mellBed b^ temporary regula- tions, Btit^|rUl}^not ‘bis annulled, however exacting the result. Accordingly^^dealistic youths, penniless rtfugees, prosperous men and women with a spiritual urge, flock into the county, most of them aware that at the best only a life of self-denial and hard work will be their lot and at the worst there,will be defeat for all. Israel is a great camp of forthright pionbers. it is The country is very small, and over half of desert. : Its known resources are limited. Its fpod is insufficient ^oir its inhabitants. The need for capital is great and not nearly enough has' been available for the Israel purposes. There is no true backing for the currency. It is physically nearly impossible 'to build enough houses or shelters for the annual influx of immigrants before the following winter overtakes ‘‘ them. In such circumstances a stranger will ask, How is it possible for the State to continue without expansion?’’ I believe that the material in this book goes to show that it is feasible. The land and its resources are to be scientifically exploited to the utmost extent possible. Israel has. recently secured financial help from foreign governments, foreign capital for investment in industrial enterprises is invited on favourable terms. Other factors aid the task of development. The barren hillsides will support forests. Most of the desert is potentially fertile, and water has been found in quantity that seems nearly sufficient. Over 38% of the population is under nineteen years of age, and youth is adaptable. Considering the general situation in which the inhabitants arc living there is little discontent. Wealth is evenly distributed and the standard of social security ^nd welfare is higher than in neighbouring countries. Intellectual and cultural activity is great, and fully occupies the short leisure hours of the workers; and the missionary zeal of the people is strong. Thus the whole tendency of thought is inward rather than outwards. Pride is the sin rather than envy. I never heard one word of envy, except for the great oil royalties of one of the smaller Persian Gull sheikhdoms. “ How very unfair,” said a leading Israeli to me—and even then it was I who had initiated the conversa- tion that unwittingly brought us to that subject. Israel is planning at present for the development and defence of what she has. It would be unwise to risk all that she has achieved for the sake of the neighbouring valleys of Lebanon and Syria or the gullies and downs of Jordan, when she has. undeveloped land that can be equally or moic fertile under her is hand ; and to shirk labour not a Jewish characteristic. • ' • all Gompliite faiiurv' u u^i^fkable. ' For wh|^^oi;|l<j[ the Jewish inhabitants m, 'and how? At the the outer world would be obliged to aid them or settle them elsewhere. So the State will, I believe, continue, in spite of all its present troubles, an unequalled example, unless it be by the' early dayfrof the settlers in America, of the ability ofman to oVta’come the seemingly impossible in colonization.

  • ORIGINS of the PALESTINE MANDATE by Adam Garfinkle
    NOVEMBER 2014 ORIGINS OF THE PALESTINE MANDATE By Adam Garfinkle Adam Garfinkle, Editor of The American Interest Magazine, served as the principal speechwriter to Secretary of State Colin Powell. He has also been editor of The National Interest and has taught at Johns Hopkins University’s School for Advanced International Studies (SAIS), the University of Pennsylvania, Haverford College and other institutions of higher learning. An alumnus of FPRI, he currently serves on FPRI’s Board of Advisors. This essay is based on a lecture he delivered to FPRI’s Butcher History Institute on “Teaching about Israel and Palestine,” October 25-26, 2014. A link to the the videofiles of each lecture can be found here: http://www.fpri.org/events/2014/10/teaching-about- israel-and-palestine Like everything else historical, the Palestine Mandate has a history with a chronological beginning, a middle, and, in this case, an end. From a strictly legal point of view, that beginning was September 29, 1923, and the end was midnight, May 14, 1948, putting the middle expanse at just short of 25 years. But also like everything else historical, it is no simple matter to determine either how far back in the historical tapestry to go in search of origins, or how far to lean history into its consequences up to and speculatively beyond the present time. These decisions depend ultimately on the purposes of an historical inquiry and, whatever historical investigators may say, all such inquiries do have purposes, whether recognized, admitted, and articulated or not. A.J.P. Taylor’s famous insistence that historical analysis has no purpose other than enlightened storytelling, rendering the entire enterprise much closer to literature than to social science, is interesting precisely because it is such an outlier perspective among professional historians.

Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.
