Exactly, and the foreigners declared their state on Palestine's defined territory.
How can something so simple escape you?
foreigners declared their state on Palestine's defined territory.
On the country of Palestine?
On the territory of Palestine which was to have been held in trust for its inhabitants pursuant to Article 22 of the League of Nations.
"ARTICLE 22.
To those colonies and territories which as a consequence of the late war have ceased to be under the sovereignty of the States which formerly governed them and which are inhabited by peoples not yet able to stand by themselves under the strenuous conditions of the modern world, there should be applied the principle that the well-being and development of such peoples form a sacred trust of civilisation and that securities for the performance of this trust should be embodied in this Covenant."
The people inhabiting the former territory that ceased to be under the sovereignty of the State which formerly governed it (Turkey) were overwhelming Christians and Muslims. The the overwhelming majority of the Zionists weren't inhabitants of Palestine, they inhabited Europe.
On the territory of Palestine
Which was designated for a Jewish homeland.
Article 22 doesn't say anything of the sort, nor does it exclude Palestine as one of the former territories. The inhabitants of Palestine, were to have received tutelage (protection) per the Covenant, and the British failed to protect the inhabitants of Palestine.
Losing has consequences. Turkey lost.
Since then, the Arabs kept losing.
Now we'll see how much more the Arabs in the West Bank can lose.
Not looking too good..

Turkey had nothing to do with the Covenant's requirement that the inhabitant of the territories be protected. The Muslims and Christians lost because the Mandatory failed to protect them. The British lost not the Christians and Muslims, they were relying on the rule of law.
Eventually the Jews will be overwhelmed by demographics. I don't think the Jews will fare as well as the white South Africans who came to their senses before they built up too much hate to overcome.
