Peel Commission Report - 1937
The full report of the "Royal Commission for Palestine" (Peel Commission) - accompanied by 8 maps of the division plan of the Land of Israel. London, July 1937.
Before us the full and detailed report that presents the results of the committee's research and recommendations on the main issues it sought to investigate: the reasons for the outbreak of the Great Arab Revolt, the resolution of the existing conflict between Arabs and Jews, and the functioning of the Mandate in Eretz Israel. Accompanied by 8 colorful maps of the Land of Israel with markings according to the committee's recommendations. The committee's conclusions were published in London on July 7, 1937, after holding 31 open and 48 closed meetings, and hearing about 120 witnesses - Zionist leaders in Israel, and Arab population leaders, public figures, and more. The committee decided on the division of Western Israel into two states - a decision that raised tensions between Jews and Arabs, and had widespread opposition in both populations.
