I may be a little rusty on this, but wasn’t Palestine divided between Israel and JORDAN? So where does this upstart Palestine nation come from when it should be part of Jordan?

You’re not so rusty on the issue. Israel got a mere fraction of what was promised for the original division; Jordan got the greater share of Palestine, and won’t give up an inch (at least since ‘67). They didn’t give the West Bank to the Palestinians before 1967 when it was part of Jordan.

And if I have my history correct, Jordan was part of Israel back in the Bible days. So, if true, Jordan also belongs to Israel.
