I didn't say that.This is sooooo confusing to you. Nobody annexed anything after WWI except Israel. And that was illegal.You're not thinking at all. The land was under occupation by Britain until 1948, and Britain had earlier created the state of Jordan, then known as Trans-Jordan, while Britain occupied that land. Before that, the land had been occupied by the Ottoman Empire for centuries. The people who have now chosen to name themselves Palestinians have never occupied the land. If it is illegitimate to annex occupied land than most of the ME is illegitimate, but people like you only complain about Israel because it is the only Jewish state.You are thinking like a Zionist.No, it isn't. In fact, that's how most of the countries in the ME were formed. Historically, the Golan was not part of Syria until the British and French decided to make it so while they were occupying the former Ottoman Empire, and the Sinai was never part of Egypt until the British decided to make it so after they built the Suez Canal to that the canal could be better protected, and Lebanon was created by the French in order to give the Catholics in Syria more power. All these things were done while the land was held in belligerent occupation, and all are recognized as legitimate by the "international community". If Israel were not a Jewish state, there would be no complaints about Israel annexing the land it captured from Jordan.Jordan occupied Palestinian land in 1948. Israel took over that occupation in 1967.
If it wasn't illegal for Jordan to annex lands then it isn't for Israel.
Both are essentially the only 'Palestinian governments' with full sovereignty over the land.
What You said was a falsehood.
Jordan and Israel are the only real sovereigns, and biggest effective Palestinian governments to date.
You tried to exclude Jordan because it contradicts Your claim.
Jordan occupied Palestinian land in 1948. Israel took over that occupation in 1967.
