Partly I think. I'm no expert. But after ww2 the US and USSR split the world between eachother, so with Israel the US had an opportunity for a vassal in this area. And politicaly the Jews being harassed everywhere through all of history made its case to give them a part of land.
I think that the area was a colony at the time, so it was easier for the west to give a land it doesn't care much about.
The kurdes would like a solution like this these days I think. But given today's context their chance is slim.
I don't disagree, was this the reason for a Jewish homeland?
