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 promises: the Hussein-McMahon Correspondence implied support for Arab self-determination in the Levant, while the Balfour Declaration expressed support for a Jewish national home in Palestine. This dual promise of the same land to two groups created immediate and long-term conflict. The other options are incorrect: the British did negotiate with both groups, did not offer land only to Ottoman rulers, and did not oppose Jewish immigration in their key wartime promises.

Answer:

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