P F Tinmore, et al,
The Arab Palestinians have what (exactly)???
...hy should people have to negotiate for their rights?
The Palestinians do not have to negotiate for their rights. Their rights are inherent and inviolable. As are Jewish rights.
The negotiations are to determine the boundaries within which they are permitted to exercise those rights.
The Palestinians already have boundaries along with the right to territorial integrity.
What is this negotiate boundaries thing?
(COMMENT)
The "right" to "territorial integrity" does not mean much if you don't have a territory in which to apply it.
The Allied Powers was granted the Title and Rights to a vast territory; one segment of which was the territory to which the Mandate for Palestine was applied.
What territory did the Title and Rights past to the Arab Palestinians.
If the Israelis and the Palestinians disagree to the point of open hostilities, that is called a dispute. Disputes are normally handled through some peaceful means.
Most Respectfully,

No title or rights were granted to the Allied Powers. Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations clearly states that the the Mandatories were responsible for the well-being and development of the inhabitants of the colonies and territories, title did not transfer to the Allies. You continue to make things up Rocco, stop it.
"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."
Seeing as yiou have problems understanding English I have translated the piece into Italian for you
Per quelle colonie e territori che, come conseguenza della fine della guerra hanno cessato di essere sotto la sovranità degli Stati che in precedenza li governato e che sono abitate da popoli non ancora in grado di stare da soli in condizioni impegnative del mondo moderno, ci dovrebbe essere applicato il principio che il benessere e lo sviluppo di tali popoli formano una sacra fiducia di civiltà e che i titoli per le prestazioni di questa fiducia devono essere incluse in questo Patto. "
And also the article in full so that everyone can see how you twist words
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 best method of giving practical effect to this principle is that the tutelage of such peoples should be entrusted to advanced nations who by reason of their resources, their experience or their geographical position can best undertake this responsibility, and who are willing to accept it, and that this tutelage should be exercised by them as Mandatories on behalf of the League.
The character of the mandate must differ according to the stage of the development of the people, the geographical situation of the territory, its economic conditions and other similar circumstances.
Certain communities formerly belonging to the Turkish Empire have reached a stage of development where their existence as independent nations can be provisionally recognized subject to the rendering of administrative advice and assistance by a Mandatory until such time as they are able to stand alone. The wishes of these communities must be a principal consideration in the selection of the Mandatory.
Other peoples, especially those of Central Africa, are at such a stage that the Mandatory must be responsible for the administration of the territory under conditions which will guarantee freedom of conscience and religion, subject only to the maintenance of public order and morals, the prohibition of abuses such as the slave trade, the arms traffic and the liquor traffic, and the prevention of the establishment of fortifications or military and naval bases and of military training of the natives for other than police purposes and the defence of territory, and will also secure equal opportunities for the trade and commerce of other Members of the League.
There are territories, such as South-West Africa and certain of the South Pacific Islands, which, owing to the sparseness of their population, or their small size, or their remoteness from the centres of civilisation, or their geographical contiguity to the territory of the Mandatory, and other circumstances, can be best administered under the laws of the Mandatory as integral portions of its territory, subject to the safeguards above mentioned in the interests of the indigenous population.
In every case of mandate, the Mandatory shall render to the Council an annual report in reference to the territory committed to its charge.
The degree of authority, control, or administration to be exercised by the Mandatory shall, if not previously agreed upon by the Members of the League, be explicitly defined in each case by the Council.
