What do you have to prove that these documents are incorrect?
I several links about the Treaty of Lausanne.
Not one of them mention anything regarding the treaty having something to do with creating any state, let a lone a state of Palestine for the Palestinians. For ***** sake, it was a peace treaty !

Thamks for acknowledging that the Treaty of Lausanne says NOTHING about creating a state at all, therefore contradicting you original claim.
Fail!

Where did I say that?
I guess that really doesn't matter. Who is the ultimate authority over the land of Israel? G-d is. Not man. Man can make up whatever documents, or treaties, and all the ink on paper he wants.
Ultimately:
Numbers 34:1-12
New International Version (NIV)
Boundaries of Canaan
34 The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Command the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you enter Canaan, the land that will be allotted to you as an inheritance is to have these boundaries:
3 “‘Your southern side will include some of the Desert of Zin along the border of Edom. Your southern boundary will start in the east from the southern end of the Dead Sea, 4 cross south of Scorpion Pass, continue on to Zin and go south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and over to Azmon, 5 where it will turn, join the Wadi of Egypt and end at the Mediterranean Sea.
6 “‘Your western boundary will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. This will be your boundary on the west.
7 “‘For your northern boundary, run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor 8 and from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath. Then the boundary will go to Zedad, 9 continue to Ziphron and end at Hazar Enan. This will be your boundary on the north.
10 “‘For your eastern boundary, run a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham. 11 The boundary will go down from Shepham to Riblah on the east side of Ain and continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee.[a] 12 Then the boundary will go down along the Jordan and end at the Dead Sea.
“‘This will be your land, with its boundaries on every side.’”
G-d made it clear that this land was for Israel. That's who it belongs to. I don't give a crap about all your man made ideals.
G-d said this. This is why no matter how much opposition the Israelis have had from around the entire world, they have endured.
And by the way..... This is why the enemies of Israel, no matter how much land they do have, they only want what Israel has. Not because they oppose "The Jews™" It's because they oppose G-d himself. They don't want what G-d said to be true.

See that red speck in the middle of all the Green? That's Israel. All that Green, is the Islamic lands, which hate the Jews. The little red dot, is the tiny little nation of Israel where Jews can live.
There is absolutely no logical reason why Islamist can't enjoy the vast expansive lands they own, and only care about some tiny speck of a country called Israel.... except... they oppose G-d, and they HATE that G-d said that land was for the Jews.
That is all there is to it. That's why they are willing to sell their kids as suicide bombers.
Remember, there have been Jews in the land of Israel (Palestine), for over 2,000 years. The Islamists never had a problem with Jews being there, provided there was no country called "Israel". Why? Because they oppose G-d. They oppose Numbers 34:1-12.
And the bottom line is, the enemies of G-d will lose. They lost in 1948. They lost in 1967. They lost in 1973. They lost in 1982. And they *WILL* lose the next time too.
All of the world can join with the enemies of G-d, and they will lose with them.
And the truth is, if the USA, joins the enemies against Israel, we'll lose as well.

What do you have to prove that these documents are incorrect?
The documents themselves, or more precisely the parts you miss out that don't support your POV and the fact that the source is biased towards there being a Palestinian nation before there was a Jewish one.
Very disingenuous of you to copy and paste parts of sentences that taken as a whole would destroy your claims.
Then what did you say ?

What makes you say the source was biased? They sourced all the material they quoted and where I checked those sources their quotes were accurate.

Here are your words were you say just that.
And the were. Palestine's international borders were defined.
The Palestinians were a distinct nationality.
The Palestinians were citizens of Palestine.
The Treaty of Lausanne was when these de facto characteristics became de jure.
Drawing up the framework of nationality, Article 30 of the Treaty of Lausanne stated:
“Turkish subjects habitually resident in territory which in accordance with the provisions of the present Treaty is detached from Turkey will become ipso facto, in the conditions laid down by the local law, nationals of the State to which such territory is transferred.”
The automatic, ipso facto, change from Ottoman to Palestinian nationality was dealt with in Article 1, paragraph 1, of the Citizenship Order, which declared:
“Turkish subjects habitually resident in the territory of Palestine upon the 1st day of August, 1925, shall become Palestinian citizens.”
Henceforth, Palestinian nationality was first founded, according to international law, on 6 August 1924. And “treaty nationality in Palestine runs from that date.”139 The Treaty of Lausanne had transformed the de facto status of Palestinian nationality into de jure existence from the angle of international law.140 Meanwhile, the Ottoman Empire ceased to exist.141 Likewise, on 6 August 1924, for the first time ever, international law certified the birth of the ‘Palestinian people’ as distinct from all other peoples.
The time to raise such arguments in favor of Muslim-Arab Palestinian sovereignty over the whole of Old Palestine would have been May 14, 1948.
The first entry on a very long list of opportunities missed by the Palestinians since that date.
Far too late now.
Victories on the battlefield, political developments, land transfers (so-called legal and otherwise) and 66 years of custom and usage have set aside any such old (and, by now, entirely obsolete and inoperative) legal possibilities.
None of that old shit matters any longer.
Just as it didn't matter at the time when it might actually have done some good - the 1947-1949 timeframe.
The Jews of Old Palestine had their shit together.
The Muslims of Old Palestine didn't have a frigging clue.
And they - and their descendants - are paying the price for that ignorance and incompetency.
Nature has de-selected them.

However, as long as these territories were still under Turkish rule none of this could legally take place.

SO what it gave the original area of Palestine a national identity, and then took it away and replaced it with another national identity. This is what you refuse to see as it destroys your argument. Here is a map of the mandated land all known as Palestine
![]()
Just the pink and the blue is all we are interested in as that was pre 1925 Palestine, the Palestine you keep referring to when you use the treaty of Lausanne and the international borders. Along come's Britain and France and they start to carve up the land and give it to arab princes for their help in defeating Turkey. So after the treaty you so rely on Palestine was carved up and made into Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Jordan and parts handed to Saudi Arabia. This left the original area that was destined for the Jewish homeland. Once you understand that the vast majority of the Land had been given to arab muslims, with one small part for arab Christians then you see were the fallacies and fantasies are. Yes Palestinian nationality was founded and almost immediately removed by the creation of new nations in Palestine. The little part that was left had no treaty to give it a nationality, no treaty to give it borders, it had nothing until the UN came up with 181 and the GREEDY muslims wanted it all.
Nationality constitutes a legal bond that connects individuals with a specific territory, making them citizens of that territory. It is therefore imperative to examine the boundaries of Palestine in order to define the piece of land on which Palestinian nationality was established.
The eastern border of Palestine with Trans-Jordan was of particular significance.
Subsequently, on 16 September 1922, the Council of the League of Nations passed a resolution by which it approved a proposal submitted by Britain to exclude Trans-Jordan from the scope of PalestineÂ’s territory.9 Ultimately, the border between Palestine and Trans-Jordan was fixed as suggested by Britain.
With regard to the northern border of Palestine, Britain and France (the occupying powers at the time, and later the mandatory powers over Syria and Lebanon respectively) signed an agreement which settled key aspects relating to the Palestinian-Syrian-Lebanese border (Paris, 23 December 1920).
The southwestern border of Palestine with Egypt dates back to the late 19th century. Originally, this border was drawn up on a de facto basis, as the Ottoman Empire recognized EgyptÂ’s autonomy.27 Formally, however, two border agreements between the Ottoman Empire and Egypt were reached in 1906.
The separation of Egypt from Turkey (Palestine, in this instance), as of 5 November 1914, was ultimately recognized by the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne.
