Labeeb Ahmed Bsoul is professor in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences at Khalifa University since the start of the 2009–present period.
Introduction
Chapter One: Balfour Declaration and Colonial Strategy: Land Transfer and Judaization Policy
Chapter Two: Internationally Deciding Palestine's and its Arab Inhabitants' Fate
Chapter Three: The Arab Revolution and the First Partition Plan (1936-1937)
Chapter Four: The White Paper and Reviving of the Revolt, 1937–1939
Conclusion
“The existing literature on Palestine under British rule largely omits what was done by the Arab public in Palestine to keep their state from being taken from them. Labeeb Bsoul gives a chilling account of the desperate resistance the Arabs of Palestine mounted against Britain in the 1920s and 1930s, and the lengths to which Britain went to put the Arabs down.”
