WRT the Arab/Israeli question, the truth is easy enough to discern. For a thousand years, Arabs treated Jews and Christians decently in Palestine. As second-class citizens, true - but decently. Then a group of Jews decided that they should have first-class status and Arabs should come second, so they created a racist state in Palestine. After that, all hell broke loose...

Interesting and simple indeed. And no British empire in sight, to whom both groups belonged. And no division (artificial, granted, but so are the boundaries of Iraq or Jordan). No division into, yes, Jewish state and Transjordan?

I guess this is what another group of Jews have done in Germany, in the 1940s. No wonder there all hell broke loose as well.

The British empire had little to do with it. It simply served as the tool of the Zionists, bringing foreign colonists to Palestine against the wishes of the people who lived there - Jew, Moslem and Christian alike.

Your comment about Transjordan is historically wrong and that about Germany is simply stupid. Of course, it is true that the Zionists have repeatedly used world events from the Nazi Holocaust to the fall of the Berlin wall to bring more Jews to Israel, often against their will.
