The 2nd November marks the 107th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration made by the British government and essentially giving Palestine to European Jews as a “national home for the Jewish people” in line with the demands of the Zionist Movement.

This Declaration, made at a time when Britain occupied Palestine, was a huge blow to the Palestinians and led to increased Jewish immigration and eventually the theft of Palestine and the creation of Israel by Zionist criminals.

The Balfour Declaration is one of the main reasons why Britain holds historic responsibility for the dispossession and subjugation of the Palestinian people.
