McMahon–Hussein Correspondence
The McMahon–Hussein Correspondence, or the Hussein–McMahon Correspondence, was an exchange of letters (14 July 1915 to 30 January 1916)〔http://www.law.fsu.edu/library/collection/LimitsinSeas/IBS094.pdf p.8〕 during World War I, between the Sharif of Mecca, Husayn bin Ali, and Sir Henry McMahon, British High Commissioner in Egypt, concerning the political status of lands under the Ottoman Empire. Growing Arab nationalism had led to a desire for independence from the Ottoman Empire. In the letters Britain agreed to recognize Arab independence after WWI "in the limits and boundaries proposed by the Sherif of Mecca", not including areas in which France had interests. This was in exchange for Arab help in fighting the Ottomans, led by Hussein bin Ali. The correspondence was a contradiction to the Balfour declaration of 1917, in which Britain promised a Jewish National Homeland in Palestine. 〔http://www.law.fsu.edu/library/collection/LimitsinSeas/IBS094.pdf p.7〕
Later, the 1916 Sykes–Picot Agreement between France and UK was exposed showing that the two countries were planning to split and occupy parts of the promised Arab country.
The matter is discussed in the Peel report of 1937.〔(''Report Of The Palestine Royal Commission'' ), Chap. II.1, pp. 16-22〕
