  • A Rhetorical History of the British Constitution of Israel, 1917-1948
    A RHETORICAL HISTORY OF THE BRITISH CONSTITUTION OF ISRAEL, 1917-1948 by BENJAMIN ROSWELL BATES (Under the Direction of Celeste Condit) ABSTRACT The Arab-Israeli conflict has long been presented as eternal and irresolvable. A rhetorical history argues that the standard narrative can be challenged by considering it a series of rhetorical problems. These rhetorical problems can be reconstructed by drawing on primary sources as well as publicly presented texts. A methodology for doing rhetorical history that draws on Michael Calvin McGee's fragmentation thesis is offered. Four theoretical concepts (the archive, institutional intent, peripheral text, and center text) are articulated. British Colonial Office archives, London Times coverage, and British Parliamentary debates are used to interpret four publicly presented rhetorical acts. In 1915-7, Britain issued the Balfour Declaration and the McMahon-Hussein correspondence. Although these documents are treated as promises in the standard narrative, they are ambiguous declarations. As ambiguous documents, these texts offer opportunities for constitutive readings as well as limiting interpretations. In 1922, the Mandate for Palestine was issued to correct this vagueness. Rather than treating the Mandate as a response to the debate between realist foreign policy and self-determination, Winston Churchill used epideictic rhetoric to foreclose a policy discussion in favor of a vote on Britain's honour. As such, the Mandate did not account for Wilsonian drives in the post-War international sphere. After Arab riots and boycotts highlighted this problem, a commission was appointed to investigate new policy approaches. In the White Paper of 1939, a rhetoric of investigation limited Britain's consideration of possible policies.

  • From the Balfour Declaration to the Palestine Mandate
    “AN OVERWHELMINGLY JEWISH STATE” - FROM THE BALFOUR DECLARATION TO THE PALESTINE MANDATE Martin Gilbert On 22 July 1922, when the League of Nations announced the terms of Britain’s Mandate for Palestine, it gave prominence to the Balfour Declaration. ‘The Mandatory should be responsible,’ the preamble stated, ‘for putting into effect the declaration originally made on November 2nd, 1917, by the Government of His Britannic Majesty…in favor of the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people…’1 The preamble of the Mandate included the precise wording of the Balfour Declaration. Nothing in the Balfour Declaration dealt with Jewish statehood, immigration, land purchase or the boundaries of Palestine. This essay examines how British policy with regard to the ‘national home for the Jewish people’ evolved between November 1917 and July 1922, and the stages by which the Mandate commitments were reached. In the discussions on the eve of the Balfour Declaration, the British War Cabinet, desperate to persuade the Jews of Russia to urge their government to renew Russia’s war effort, saw Palestine as a Jewish rallying cry. To this end, those advising the War Cabinet, and the Foreign Secretary himself, A.J. Balfour, encouraged at least the possibility of an eventual Jewish majority, even if it might – with the settled population of Palestine then being some 600,000 Arabs and 60,000 Jews – be many years before such a majority emerged. On 31 October 1917, Balfour had told the War Cabinet that while the words ‘national home…did

  • Rights of Return and Self Determination Asserted in All International Law
    BADIL Occasional Bulletin No. 23 December 2004 Rights of return and self determination asserted in all international law This Bulletin aims to provide a brief overview of issues related to Palestinian Refugee Rights On 11 December 1948, the United Nations adopted Resolution 194 which set up the UN Conciliation Commission for Palestine (UNCCP) and “resolved that (Palestinian) refugees wishing to return to their homes and live at peace with their neighbors should be permitted to do so at the earliest practicable date…” A day earlier (10 December 1948), member states of the UN had adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), marked as Human Rights Day. The UDHR, regarded by most states as the authoritative international standard for human rights, calls for fundamental human rights including the right to leave any country, including his own, and to return to his country. The Charter of the United Nations enshrines both self-determination and the right of return, with all other human rights conventions, covenants and declarations flowing from the aims and ideals set out in Charter. The individual right to self-determination requires States to respect all rights in human rights conventions they have agreed to including the right of (Palestinian) refugees and displaced persons to return to their homes and repossess their properties. But this doesn’t always happen. The US and Israel often vote with a few others against United Nations resolutions, otherwise passed unanimously, that include provision for basic human rights. The following looks at the rights of return and self determination in international law. A fundamental right—individually and collectively The right to self-determination is a fundamental human right, both individually and collectively.

  • Palestine & Trans-Jordan Chronology of Events
    28 February 2018 [CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS – PALESTINE, TRANS-JORDAN & SYRIA] Chronology of Events – Palestine, Trans-Jordan and Syria 1915 January German led Ottoman (Turkish) forces invade the Sinai Peninsula with the aim of capturing the Suez Canal. They are held, and eventually in 1916 pushed back out of Sinai into Palestine. 1916 March The last of a series of ten letters between HUSSEIN bin Ali, Sharif of Mecca, and the British High Commissioner in Egypt (McMAHON) affirms the U.K. commitment to recognise Arab independence after the Great War in exchange for Arab support in the war against the Ottoman Empire, and the launching of an Arab revolt against Turkish occupation of Mespotamia, Syria, Trans-Jordan and Palestine. 16 May The U.K. and France sign the SYKES – PICOT Agreement, which includes the then Russian Empire, apportioning spheres of influence over Turkey, Palestine and Western Persia when the Ottoman Empire was defeated in the war. The U.K. would have control of a coastal strip of Palestine, including the ports of Haifa and Acre, up to the River Jordan, and southern Iraq from Basra up to Baghdad along the two main rivers of the region (the Euphrates and Tigris). France was to gain control of south-eastern Turkey, Syria and Lebanon, and Russia Istanbul, the Turkish Straits, and Armenia. The Arab peoples were excluded from this agreement, as were any Jewish representatives. 1917 October – November British forces defeat the Turkish Army at the Third Battle of Gaza, leading to a large scale retreat by Turkish forces. 9 November The letter sent by Foreign Secretary of the U.K.

  • Structures of Cooperation & Conflict: Local Forces in Mandatory Palestine During the Second World
    Jacob Stoil Ex Historia 136 Jacob Stoil1 University of Oxford Structures of Cooperation & Conflict: Local Forces in Mandatory Palestine during the Second World War From the recruitment of Roger’s Rangers in the Seven Years’ War to the Sunni Awakening, the employment of local forces is a persistent theme throughout the history of warfare. Although at times individual local forces have received narrative attention, there has as yet been no comprehensive study of the nature, structure, function, or experience of these forces. One way these forces differ from institutional forces is their temporary and sometimes ad hoc nature – they are recruited by metropolitan powers in response to a specific emergency, sometimes as a supplement to conventional forces or out of a desire to intervene militarily without committing to large deployments. These forces are by definition paramilitary in their nature, as, for the most part, are their activities. They are not regular police, gendarme, or military forces. Instead, they represent a subset of a broader category of force that includes paramilitaries, unconventional forces, guerrillas, some militias, and auxiliaries. In the last several decades, the establishment of, and cooperation with, such forces tends to belong neither to the main body of conventional forces nor to intelligence agencies, but to the specific sections responsible for special operations or paramilitary activities. Irregular local forces have formed part of crisis response in imperial security and proxy warfare the world over and have thus played a central role in conflicts. This is clearly shown in the case of the Palestine Mandate during the era of the Second World War.
