Well, look. The original "Palestine" mandate covered the land that is now Jordan and Israel.

Who decided the British, the Leage of Nations, or anybody else could come in and partitian land with a mandate, or create nations with a mandate? Suppose people already there don't recognize that right?

Suppose America were conquered and administered by France and Holland. Further suppose that they decided to take the states of Illinois, Missouri, Indiana, and Iowa and "mandate" them to the black muslims, encourage African immigration into those states, then recognize it as a separate nation. Also suppose you had been living there and were declared a minority citizen subject to the laws of that nation. How happy and peaceful do you think you would be? If a war occurred between France, or Holland, and anybody else, who do you think you would support?

See the above.

Becuase the British won control over that land as a result of WWI. Wars happen. People win and lose things.

43% of Israelis are Jews who were evicted from Arab nations. Where are these Jews supposed to live? Today they live free in Israel. Not under Mulsim domination in rathole Arab nations.
