trative body to organise thoSe people on the land to be
the nucleus of the future government of the Zionist state.
Accordingly, the Mandatory Government refused to dis-
cuss any kind of self-government or even a constitutional
government, because such an act, as Churchill expressed
it, would contradict the pledge given to the Jews of estab-
lishing a national Jewish home in Palestine. At the same
time Britain recognised the Jewish Agency and admitted
the Jews on a large scale to participate in administering
the country, in such a manner that allowed Zionist bodies
in Palestine to become « a state within a state ».

military force to protect on one side the growing Zionist
presence, and on the other to fight for the establishment
of the Zionist state. Thus, the Mandatory Government

tary organisation, and other terrorist groups such as the
Stern and the Irgun. Besides this, the Mandatory Govern-

date at the time when life-imprisonment and capital-
punishment awaited any Arab caught carrying arms.
