Considering Churchill's strong dislike with anti-Semitic groups and thought would the Independence of Israel gone any easier than under Attlee?

Would there be a faster movement from the DP camps than originally.

I doubt Churchill would any more helpful than the Labour government after the Lehi Zionist assassination of his friend Lord Moyne in late 1944.

While FO and Colonial Office was stacked with old Arab hands I see Churchill as a great leveler.
 
As I understand it he was cautiously in favour of Zionism seeing it as a way to create a British ally in the region and to create an ideological rival to socialism for British Jewry.
