Can we Blame Britain for the neverending crisis in the middle east?
The British took almost 80% of palestine and gave it independence in 1946 and renamed it Jordan.
They immediately seized all Jewish property and began ethnically cleansing the palestinian Jews from the 80% of palestine that was now called Jordan and pushing them in to the remaining 20% of palestine. (In part this is important because even though "palestine in 1948" was only 20% of the size of "palestine in 1947," people treat statistics on "palestine" as if it is the same size.)
The remaining 20% of palestine that was not indepedent yet now had the palestinian Arabs that had lived in that 20% + all the Jews that had lived in 100% of palestine squished in to it.
They could have Taken the Acampora desert away from Chile and made that the Jewish homeland. They could pump water out of the pacific, de-salinate it, and used it to iregate farms.
After moving the Jews of Palistine there, they could have made Palistine a Muslim colony.

You can blame anyone you want to, however that neither makes you right, or them wrong.
It is just your opinion.

British has to be blamed for the crime . They occupied Palestine after World War 1 and promise jews to establish a state in Palestine -Pelf ore Declaration - in 1917 . During British occupation they opened jewish immigration from all over the world specially from Europe . They allowed Jewish people to have their own military regime and punished any Palestinian by death when owned a pistol.
Consequently, Jewish could win the war of 1948 against Arabs ,Moslem's and Cristian's . The people of Palestine are now in refugee camps since 1948 waiting the justice of the world to get them back .Yes it is the British that should be blamed .
