520 8  The focus is on British imperial motivation, action, 
       responsibility and failure. The unexpected British 
       adoption of Zionism in 1917 (and, more significant, its 
       consolidated commitment in the 1922 Mandate) was neither 
       inevitable nor (at that time, especially) necessary. It 
       was ill-judged and defied argument, evidence, reason, and 
       British interests (and contemporary experience in 
       Ireland). 0As the correspondent John Jeffries noted in 
       1939, from 1923 there were only consequences. British 
       sponsorship of Jewish colonisation directed towards a 
       Jewish National Home/state in Palestine led inexorably to 
       bitter conflict. Arab revolt and the Peel Commission 
       brought a fatally divided "Israel" into embryonic 
       existence before World War Two.
