You are ducking my question.So, who was going to give it to the Jews? The LoN did not own it. Britain didn't own it. The UN didn't own it. Nobody could give away what was not theirs.The whole 100% of the mandate for Palestine was to be given to the Jews as it was their ancient homeland. All of it.
Those who won WWI, following the Balfour Declaration and the League of Nations
(the body which preceded the UN) gave the Jewish Homeland back to the Jews.
The League of Nation was there exactly to decide issues like that, and it was decided in the San Remo Accords that the Jews would be given the Mandate for Palestine.
The Muslims did not "own" any of the land they moved into for 1300 years.
For the past 400 years (1517-1917) the Ottoman Turks conquered and kept the land until their defeat.
The Muslims/Arabs ended up with the rest of the Ottoman Empire. That would be 99% of all of the land they had power over from 1517 to 1917.
Arabs being indigenous of Arabia, and the indigenous people of Syria, Lebanon,
and Iraq still being around......
How much of any of that land was even suggested be separated for the use of the Kurds or any other minority which is indigenous to any of that region?
As it should have been?
Zero !!!!
The indigenous minorities had rights to their own National Sovereign States.
But the Allies did not think or care about them, any more than England ended up caring how much of the Mandate for Palestine the Jews (the indigenous people)
ended up with.
That is why England simply gave.....77% of the Mandate to Muslims who hated Jews in 1922. So that the Jews would not have it.
THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS was the answer.
The San Remo Resolution is the one which gave the Jews the right to the Mandate for Palestine
