The treaty of Sevres was annuled in 1923. The Balfour declaration was made by an imperial power over the heads of the colonial population and was imposed on the along with the mandatory regime. The Zionists collaborated with the British imperial regime in terrorising the Palestinian freedom struggle against the mandate, particularly through the SNS and Jewish militia. A shaeful history of atrocities and colonial collaboration.

Britain’s primary goal in fighting the Turks in WW1 was securing oil for its navy. But the actions of our ANZACs in Gallipoli and Beersheba also helped free Palestine from Ottoman rule, giving Jews, including my own family, a haven from persecution. The Treaty of Sèvres, which ended our war with the Ottomans, incorporated the Balfour Declaration and became the legal basis of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Lest we forget.
