Official PA TV program From the Diaspora, on the 105th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration – see note below

 

Palestinian studies researcher Saqr Abu Fakhr: “[Former British Foreign Secretary Arthur] Balfour was hostile to the Jews. He was the foreign secretary at the time and prior to that he was prime minister. He was from the movement that was hostile to the Jews, but he wanted to resolve the problem, he wanted to get rid of the Jews who came from Europe. It is known that he is the one who formulated the Aliens Act [1905] that prevented the Jews from entering Britain, and he viewed the Jews as an element that cannot integrate, and he says in his books that the Jews are a group that cannot integrate in other groups.”
