回答: 以下のとおりお答えします。 シオニズム(ユダヤ人国家の建設・発展運動)の経過について説明しています。 >zionism was first discussed at a british cabinet level on 9 november 1914, four days after britain's declaration of war on the ottoman empire. david lloyd george, then chancellor of the exchequer "referred to the ultimate destiny of palestine." lloyd george's law firm lloyd george, roberts and co had been engaged a decade before by the zionist federation of great britain and ireland to work on the uganda scheme. ⇒シオニズムは、最初、英国の対オスマン帝国戦宣の4日後1914年11月9日に、英国の閣僚レベルで議論された。時の大蔵大臣デービッド・ロイド・ジョージが、「パレスチナの究極的運命について言及した」。その10年前、ロイド・ジョージ法律事務所のロイド・ジョージ、ロバーツおよび仲間が、「ウガンダ計画」に取り組むために英国・アイルランドのシオニズム連合に雇われていた。 >in a discussion after the meeting with fellow zionist and president of the local government board herbert samuel, lloyd george assured him that "he was very keen to see a jewish state established in palestine." samuel then outlined the zionist position more fully in a conversation with foreign secretary edward grey. he spoke of zionist aspirations for the establishment in palestine of a jewish state, and of the importance of its geographical position to the british empire. ⇒シオニズム仲間および地方行政院長ハーバート・サミュエルとの会合の後の議論において、ロイド・ジョージは、「パレスチナでユダヤ人の国家が設立されることを彼が切望している」ことを請合った。それからサミュエルは、外務大臣エドワード・グレーとの会話においてシオニズムの立地問題を十分に概説した。彼は、パレスチナにおけるユダヤ国家の設立に対するシオニズムの熱望と、大英帝国にとってその地理的立地の重要性について語ったのである。 >samuel's memoirs state: "i mentioned that two things would be essential—that the state should be neutralized, since it could not be large enough to defend itself, and that the free access of christian pilgrims should be guaranteed. ... i also said it would be a great advantage if the remainder of syria were annexed by france, as it would be far better for the state to have a european power as neighbour than the turk." ⇒サミュエルの回想録に曰く、「私は、2つの事柄が必須であることを言及しました。― 当国家は、中立をもって旨とすべきである。なぜなら、自己防御できるほど十分に大きいはずはなく、キリスト教巡礼者にとって自由なアクセスが保証されるべきだからである。...私はまたこうも申し添えました。もしフランスからシリアの残余地が付加されるならば、それは大きな強みになるだろう。というのも、当国家がヨーロッパ寄りの権力を持つためには、隣国がトルコ系であるよりはずっと良いはずだから、と。」 >the same evening, prime minister h. h. asquith announced in a speech that the dismemberment of the ottoman empire had become a war aim, "it is the ottoman government, and not we who have rung the death knell of ottoman dominion not only in europe but in asia." ⇒同じ日の夕方、総理大臣h. h.アスキスは、演説でこう発表した。オスマン帝国の手足の切断が戦争目的となったが、「ヨーロッパだけでなくアジアにおいても、オスマントルコの支配権(を終わらせるため)の死弔鐘を鳴らしたのは、私達ではなく、トルコ政府自身である」、と。
