I'm sorry you are having trouble following the conversation. No one was talking about the treaty of Sevre's. You had brought up the treaty of Lausanne. Which was superseded by the league of nations mandates.

Regardless at no point was the area of the mandate a state. It was under negotiation the entire way except for the area given over to the Arab Muslim colonists, that was eventually known as Jordan.

Sèvres, Treaty of (1920)

The Treaty of Sèvres, imposed on the Ottoman government, was never ratified—because of internal Turkish affairs—namely the rise to power of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk and the overthrow of the Ottoman sultan. Thus the treaty became obsolete and final arrangements were put off until the Treaty of Lausanne, signed in 1923.

Indeed.

Here is where you are incorrect, or more accurately, misinformed. the Jewish homeland was not a transfer of Palestine or the transfer of the territory to the Jews. The Mandate was to assist the immigrants in obtaining Palestinian citizenship and live in Palestine with the other Palestinians. There was no mandate to create a Jewish state. Of course, as Palestinian citizens, they could live anywhere in Palestine as any other Palestinian could do.

That is neither here nor there. The British fled Palestine without accomplishing that goal.

Another bit of misinformation was that the Mandate was Palestine. That is not true. Palestine was a successor state to Turkish rule two months before Britain assumed its role as the temporarily assigned administration and continued to be a state. And, as India was India before, during, and after British rule Palestine was a state before, during, and after the Mandate period.

The Zionist organization, so long as its organization and constitution are in the opinion of the Mandatory appropriate, shall be recognised as such agency.

As far as a nationality law is concerned that was specifically to aid in Jewish immigration. The Arabs complained bitterly about it.

In the end though the mandate expired and is no longer enforceable and with it the citizenship order. There never was a palestine. 75% was given to the Arab Muslim colonists and a war broke out in the other 25% resulting in Egypt Jordan and Israel taking some percentage of that remaining 25%

Now you'd be able to argue that there was a British Mandate for palestine but you'd be hard pressed to argue there ever was a palestine.

Decisions of international and national tribunals

The U.S. State Department Digest of International Law says that the terms of the Treaty of Lausanne provided for the application of the principles of state succession to the "A" Mandates. The Treaty of Versailles (1920) provisionally recognized the former Ottoman communities as independent nations. It also required Germany to recognize the disposition of the former Ottoman territories and to recognize the new states laid down within their boundaries. The Treaty of Lausanne required the newly created states that acquired the territory to pay annuities on the Ottoman public debt, and to assume responsibility for the administration of concessions that had been granted by the Ottomans. A dispute regarding the status of the territories was settled by an Arbitrator appointed by the Council of the League of Nations. It was decided that Palestine and Transjordan were newly created states according to the terms of the applicable post-war treaties. In its Judgment No. 5, The Mavrommatis Palestine Concessions, the Permanent Court of International Justice also decided that Palestine was responsible as the successor state for concessions granted by Ottoman authorities. The Courts of Palestine and Great Britain decided that title to the properties shown on the Ottoman Civil list had been ceded to the government of Palestine as an allied successor state.[25]

State succession

A legal analysis by the International Court of Justice noted that the Covenant of the League of Nations had provisionally recognized the communities of Palestine as independent nations. The mandate simply marked a transitory period, with the aim and object of leading the mandated territory to become an independent self-governing State.[122] Judge Higgins explained that the Palestinian people are entitled to their territory, to exercise self-determination, and to have their own State."[123]

State of Palestine: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 
If you think a treaty in 1920 thats been superseded countless times still has any relevance you are more confused than I thought.

The last legally binding agreement was of the mandate period which created the state of Jordan from the mandated area. Other states were created from other mandated area but there was never a state of palestine. Oh the Arabs wanted all of the mandated area and who knows what they intended on calling it but the harsh reality is that when Israel declared statehood the Arab league declared war.

Your treaty is worthless

Are you saying that a state can expire over time?

That the rights of its citizens can be violated by foreign powers?

That its territory can be taken by force?

Could you provide some links?
 
I'm saying the state was never created and the treaty superseded by additional legal instruments.

There were no citizens to have rights that could be violated.

There was no territory because there was no state.

United States considered that Palestine was a state In 1932​

He argued that Palestine was not a state, and therefore that his 1935 naturalization there was invalid. The U.S. district court disagreed. It said that Kletter's naturalization in Palestine was valid, thus he was no longer a U.S. national: "[N]aturalization in any foreign state...constitutes expatriation. The contention of the plaintiff that Palestine, while under the League of Nations mandate, was not a foreign state within the meaning of the statute is wholly without merit." In support, the court said that the United States in 1932 had taken the position that Palestine was a state: "This the Executive branch of the Government did in 1932," the court explained, "with respect to the operation of the most favored nations provision in treaties of commerce." The court found a reference to the 1932 episode in the State Department's digest of international law, where it is mentioned as indicating that the United States considered that Palestine was a state.

In Palestine, citizenship was governed by the Palestine Citizenship Order of 24 July 1925 (Statutory Rules and Orders, I925, No. 777; which came into force on 1 August 1925), amended by various successive orders. This defined a Palestinian as a 'Turkish subject habitually resident in the territory of Palestine". The amended text of the Order of 24 July 1925 is worded as follows:
"Turkish citizens habitually resident in the territory of Palestine upon the 6th day of August 1924 shall become Palestinian citizens."
Turkish citizens born in Palestine who left Palestine before 6 August 1924 were given the right of option on condition that they could prove that they had unbroken ties with their place of origin and give formal assurances of their intention to return to Palestine. The right of option expired on 24 July 1945.

Article 7 of the Palestine Mandate required the Administration of Palestine to enact a nationality law. The law was to include provisions framed so as to facilitate the acquisition of Palestinian citizenship by Jews who take up their permanent residence in Palestine.

In pursuance of Article 7, the Palestine Citizenship Order was issued in 1925, and this order, as amended from time to time, regulated Palestine citizenship for the remaining twenty-three years of the Mandate. Subject to the right to opt for Turkish and other nationalities, all Turkish subjectsJew and non-Jewshabitually resident in the territory of Palestine became, on August 1, 1925, Palestine citizens. Other Turkish nationals born within Palestine could also acquire Palestine citizenship even though they had not been previously resident in Palestine.

Palestine citizenship could also be acquired by birth. Any person born to a father who was a Palestine citizen himself acquired Palestine citizenship whether or not the birth took place in Palestine. Moreover, any person born within Palestine who did not by his birth acquire the nationality of any other Sate was deemed to be a Palestine citizen. Finally, Palestine citizenship could be acquired by any person by means of naturalization, the main precondition being a period of residence in Palestine.

The mandate text required the British to create a law for the acquisition of Palestinian nationality for the Jews. This nationality would give certain rights and obligations not only to the Jewish immigrants, but also to the majority Arab population, since the mandate also stipulated that the Jewish national home policy could not prejudice the civil or religious rights of the existing majority population. Hence, the British had to walk a fine line in their legislation on nationality and citizenship, acting as a colonial power rather than as a trustee in order to draft a colonial citizenship that gave only limited civil and political rights.

regulated Palestine citizenship for the remaining twenty-three years of the Mandate.​

OK, but where does it say that citizenship would expire or be revoked at the termination of the Mandate?

It is my understanding that Israel's nationality law of 1952 denationalized the Palestinians in contravention of international law.
 
Actually any order under the mandate expired with the mandates authority to govern.

Also the Arab Muslim colonists in the disputed territories were not really covered under the citizenship order, it was primarily meant for Israeli imigrants. But when the mandate expired and The Jordanians captured the area they made all the Arab Muslim immigrants living there Jordanian citizens, and the stripped them of it after the 67 war. Which was illegal as all hell but the Arab block controlled UN ignored it.

Today after Jordan recreated the refugee issue by stripping millions of its Jordanian citizens of their citizenship these people now fall under the Geneva conventions, in which case combatants, suspected combatants or anyone suspected of activities against the state forfeits their refugee status, which of course means that their descendants also forfeit their refugee status.

Its a huge mess but however you slice it, nothing positive will happen while two things remain. One that the UN is directly lending aid to combatants, and two that combatants are allowed to remain within the refugee camps.

I want peace as much as the next guy, but the game is rigged and without everyone playing fair; it will never be settled
