User Description:

An essay arguing why the British surrendered their imposed mandate on Israel during the conflict on the Arab Israeli Crisis: The British Mandate was imposed upon Israel in 1923. It was the British attempt to prevent the increasing violence and conflict between the Arab and Jewish communities created in the presence of contrasting post war agreements, made with the British. However, the Mandate system is widely viewed as a failure in which the British finally surrendered in 1947 due to escalated violence against British forces in the region, as well as the growing pressures of World War II. The British also surrendered the Mandate due to a friction with the US approach and following the establishment of the United Nations.
