    Edge of darkness : the Balfour Declaration and the Great War 1914-1918. (1991)
    In:  Jewish Quarterly 38,3 (1991) 31-36

    ISSN: 0449-010X

    Abstract: Contends that the seemingly philosemitic Balfour Declaration of 2 November 1917 was motivated by the widespread misperception of the European political and diplomatic establishments that Jewry was an international body which would disrupt the status quo for its own ends. Specifically, the British Foreign Office and the chief architect of the Declaration, Mark Sykes, saw Jewry (especially American Jewry) as a force which had to be coopted in order to win the war. It was hoped that the Declaration would not only avert revolution in Russia and a separate Russo-German peace, but transform Russian Jewish revolutionary leaders into Zionists (the latter seen as a positive Jewish force in contrast to Bolshevism). Contends that Britain's apparent philosemitism converged with post-World War I German antisemitism in that both assumed that world Jewry held the balance of power for victory or defeat.

    Abstract: Assesses the origins and significance of the Balfour Declaration of 1917, based on confidential minutes and memoranda of senior Foreign Office advisers, diplomats and cabinet ministers of this period found in the Public Record Office. Finds that at the heart of British official concern with the "Jewish question" was a very insidious charge: that Jews, at heart, always put their interests as Jews before all else. Sir Mark Sykes, the chief architect of the Balfour Declaration, believed that Britain had to win the support of "world Jewry" if she wished to win World War I. The Arabs, on the other hand, were not taken into account at all. Chaim Weizmann recognized this window of opportunity for Zionists to achieve the goal of the "Jewish national home"; he convinced the British policy makers that their obsessions about Jews were correct. Concludes that the Declaration did not materialize out of humanitarian concern or Christian guilt, but rather out of antisemitism. The Declaration was flawed because it denied Palestinian Arabs their dignity as human beings and because it was founded on a sickness in the non-Jewish European mind.
    Note: On Great Britain's attitude to the Jews and Zionism during World War I.
