November 2nd, 1917
Dear Lord Rothschild:
I have much pleasure in conveying to you, on behalf of His Majesty's Government, the following declaration of sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations which has been submitted to, and approved by, the Cabinet:
His Majesty's Government view with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country. I should be grateful if you would bring this declaration to the knowledge of the Zionist Federation. Yours, Arthur James Balfour
What is Arthur James Balfour’s message in his letter?
The British government favors the creation of a Jewish homeland.
The Palestinian people should emigrate to other lands.
Jewish people will have full authority over Palestine.
The government is unable to support Zionism at this time.
with reading this passage i can conclude that the answer should be the first option. So my answer would be A.) The British government favors the creation of a Jewish homeland.
i do hope this helps :)
