RE:: Palestine Today
※→ et al,
This is just another Palestinian head
Three-card Monte games with the word salad.
It may have used the boundaries of the territory once under the Mandate,
There you go again with Israeli bullshit. The Mandate was not a place. It was an administration appointed to Palestine. Palestine was there with or without the Mandate.
Indeed, It seems you're still clinging to some invention of your alleged "State of Pal'istan".
Yes, there was the geographic area called "Palestine".
(COMMENT)
The language use by me, and most governments, and certainly the UN is what is equivalently used in the treaties:
PART I.
PRELIMINARY.
Title. 1. This Order may be cited as
"The Palestine Order in Council, 1922."
The limits of this Order are the territories to which the Mandate for Palestine applies, hereinafter described as Palestine.
The confusion is the difference between the Mandatory and the Mandate.
The term "Mandatory" → which is (what you ≈ said) trust government selected by the said Allied Powers in the matter of administration in the territory of Palestine. The Mandate is an obligation and authority given to the Mandatory to carry-out certain responsibilities; one of which was the responsible for putting into effect the declaration originally made on 2 November 1917, by the Government of His Britannic Majesty, and adopted by the said Powers, in favor of the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.

Sorry, I am going to do a "Rocco" post.
Benoliel and Perry attempt to refute my argument that the statehood asserted by the Palestine National Council in 1988 was not of a new state, but of a state that already existed. They challenge my position that Palestine, as a Class A mandate under the League of Nations, was a state already in that era. 36 But beyond a bald assertion, Benoliel and Perry cite nothing that would demonstrate that Palestine was not a state in the League era. In particular, they mention nothing of the practice of the states of that era in regard to Palestine, which is where one must look to determine if Palestine was then a state. Had Benoliel and Perry examined that state practice, they would have seen that Palestine was accepted as a state, even though it was administered by Great Britain under the mandate system established by the League. 3 7
Most critically, Benoliel and Perry fail to account for a major international instrument of the era bearing on the status of Palestine, the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne." It was in this treaty that Turkey gave up its territories in the Arab world following its defeat in World War I9 The Treaty of Lausanne, to which the World War I allies were party, more than once refers to Turkey's Arab territories (Iraq, Syria, and Palestine), all of which became Class A mandates as "states" that were "detached" from Turkey. 40 The Treaty of Lausanne thus reflected an assumption that the Class A mandate territories, including Palestine, were "states." Under the League Covenant, the independence of these states was "provisionally recognized," and they were to be made independent in due course. 4 1 The Class A mandates were states temporarily under the administration of an outside state.
