The article discusses Zionism. It was to supply the elementary need of a homeless people for a home that the Balfour Declaration was issued on November 2, 1917, announcing that "His Majesty's government view with favor the establishment in Palestine of a national borne for the Jewish people." The purpose of this historic document, which was subsequently approved by fifty-two nations, including the United States, was understood and accepted by the parties most directly involved. Since 1918, more than half a million Jews have been settled in Palestine.
