Question

how did british promises during world war i lead to conflict? the british refused to negotiate with either arab or jewish people. the british promised the same land to both arab and jewish people. the british offered land only to the rulers of the ottoman empire. the british supported arab control but not jewish immigration.

Explanation:

During World War I, the British made conflicting territorial pledges: the Hussein-McMahon Correspondence promised Arab self-rule in parts of the Ottoman Empire, while the Balfour Declaration expressed support for a Jewish national home in Palestine. This dual promise of the same land to two groups created long-term conflict. The other options are incorrect: the British did negotiate with Arabs and Jews, did not only offer land to Ottoman rulers, and their policy was contradictory rather than only supporting Arab control.

Answer:

The British promised the same land to both Arab and Jewish people.
