The Allied Powers never claimed sovereignty.
(COMMENT)When did the European colonists have sovereign control over any of the territory they claimed, prior to partition?
The territories were surrendered to the Allied Powers. The Ottoman Unconditional Surrender 1918 was the essentially the end of the Ottoman engagement in WWI.
Partition has nothing to do with the award or establishment of sovereignty. The Anglo-Jordanian Treaty recognized Sovereignty of the Emir. However, the Jewish exercised self-determination under UN Guidance; moving from non-self governing to self-governing.

So, why do you make a point of the fact that the indigenous Christians and Muslims had not had sovereignty? The European colonists hadn't it either. Try to be consistent.
There were no European colonists. That's part of your Palestinian propaganda campaign.
