Inside this Book – After the First World War,the British controlled Palestine in quasi-colonial fashion, in a mandate sanctioned by the League of Nations. The Zionist movement, which had begun at the end of the previous century and encouraged Jewish immigration to Palestine with the eventual goal ofcreating a Jewish State,flourished under the mandate.The growing Jewish population clashed repeatedly with the Arab majority, which was unalterably op- posed to a Jewish State and which itself wanted independence from Britain. At various periods during the mandate, the British suppressed both Arab and Jewish guerrilla rebellions. Exhausted after the Second World War, financially broke, and torn between bitterly opposing demands from the Arab and Jewish populations, the British finally threw in the towel and asked the UN to settle the problem. On May 15, 1947, the United Nations created a Special Committee on Palestine,UNSCOP,to recommend a resolution.Iran was selected to be part of the eleven-state committee. After several months of laborious hearings a plan was presented with the support of only eight of the committee’s eleven members.
