AICE Update: Did the British promise the Arabs independence in Palestine?
Did the British promise the Arabs independence in Palestine?
In July 1915, Hussein ibn 'Ali, the Sherif of Mecca, sent a letter to Sir Henry MacMahon, the High Commissioner for Egypt, informing him of the terms for Arab participation in the war against the Turks. The letters between Hussein and Mac-Mahon that followed outlined the areas that Britain was prepared to cede to the Arabs in exchange for their help.
Trump's Saudi Arms Sale Is About Politics and Economics, Not Security
by Mitchell Bard
President Trump wants to use his emergency powers to sell billions of dollars' worth of weapons to Saudi Arabia on national security grounds. Congress wants to stop the sale because of lingering anger over Saudi abuses and the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, and the usurpation of its legal authority to review arms sales. Both sides are ingenuous. The willingness to sell the Saudis weapons has little to do with American national security, and everything to do with economics and politics.

The U.S.-Israel relationship is based on the twin pillars of shared values and mutual interests. Given this commonality of interests and beliefs, it should not be surprising that support for Israel is one of the most pronounced and consistent foreign policy values of the American people.
Today's interdependent global economy requires that trade policy be developed at the national and state level. Many states have recognized the opportunity for realizing significant benefits by seeking to increase trade with Israel. Arizona is one of 33 states that have cooperative agreements with Israel.
