1939 Palestinian Flag. What does it look like? Surprised?
This a Larousse French dictionary from 1939. In the appendix it lists all the then current flags of the world in alphabetical order. Youll notice that for Germany at that time the flag was the Nazi one replete with Zwastika which proves that this was pre-1945 ( before 1945) ! .
Now, alphabetically, look for the Palestinian Flag. YES , there is one. What does it look like? Surprised? Oh, but you thought (Mandate Jewish) Palestine was an Islamic Arab-,Turkish-, Circassian Sovereign State that the bad Jews took over , right?
Confused?
From 1920-1948 a ( class A Mandate) State of Palestine existed as per international law but it was, as all of its major institutions, Jewish. Until the 1960s, name Palestine resonated as something Jewish to peoples ears. The 4,000 year old Jewish homeland or Land of Israel or the Holy Land were all synonymous!!
The British as legal Mandatory over the Mandate managed or mismanaged the state partially with Jewish Auxilary until Jews regained official sovereignty in 1948, by declaring independence.
The U.N. did not recreate Israel as some people claim.

The Left/Islam axis could not possibly care less about facts.
They are at war with reality.

Keeper article. Thanks for posting. What I certainly did not know.

So what effectively happened in 1948 was that the UK granted the Jewish state its independence.
No wonder barky despises the UK so much!

Article 5:
“ART. 5.
The Mandatory shall be responsible for seeing that no Palestine territory shall be ceded or leased to, or in any way placed under the control of the Government of any foreign Power.”
Article 5 was violated when Trans-Jordan was created, giving a Saudi Prince 2/3rds of the Palestinian Mandate as a country. Even if the UN was to designate modern day Jordan as a Palestinian state, it would still be a violation, unless native Palestinians ruled it.

Very Good! And then there is the Palestinian History Quiz...
1. When was the country of Palestine founded?
2. What were its borders?
3. What was its capital?
4. What were its major cities?
5. Name at least one Palestinian Leader before Arafat?
6. What was the language of the country of Palestine?
7. What was the prevalent religion of the country of Palestine?
8. What was the name of its currency?
9. What has been the exchange rate between palestinian currency and other world currencies?
10. Since there is no such country as Palestine today, what caused its demise?
11. Why did the "Palestinians" never try to become an independent state until after the devastating defeat in the 1967 Six Day War?
