Talk on the Balfour Declaration by Peter Reilly - Nov 7th

Join us for an insightful talk on the Balfour Declaration, exploring its origins, motivations, and lasting impact on the region. Presented by Peter Reilly, BA, a former history teacher born in Palestine before the establishment of Israel.

The Balfour Declaration was a letter from the British Government expressing its favour of creating a national homeland for Jewish people in Palestine. At the time the Jewish population was less than 10% of the total in Palestine, and most of those were immigrants from Eastern Europe. The steps necessary to fulfil that Declaration started the conflict which continues to this day.
