Answer:

in 1917 chaim weizmann, scientist , statesperson , and zionist, persuaded the british goverment to issue a statement favoring the establishment of a jewish national home in palestine.

Step-by-step explanation:

although the USA supported the balfour declaration of 1917 , which favored the establishment of a jewish national home in palestine, president franklin D. roosevelt had assured the arabs in 1945 that the USA would not intervene without consulting both the jews and the arabs in the region.
