EDIT: Jib, I'll look up on that book.
HUGE oversimplification there. The british were not f*cking around in the middle east as you so eloquently put it at that time in history. The palestinians pressured the british to outlaw mass immigration by the jews to palestine by holding their oil reserves over their head. Even THAT explanation is oversimplified way too much. Unless I type out a 10 page essay, I can't even beging to relay all the history and complexities needed to even have the most basic understanding of the situation.
