The League of Nations established The British Mandate for Palestine. Shortly afterwards, in September 1922, the League of Nations and Great Britain decided that the provisions for setting up a Jewish national home would not apply to the area east of the Jordan River, which constituted three-fourths of the territory included in the Mandate, and which eventually became the Hashemite Kingdom of Trans-Jordan. At that point the Palestinian Mandate was split into two states with the creation of Trans-Jordan.

So two states were created, one officially giving a Saudi Prince Trans-Jordan. What was left was to be a home for a Jewish nation.

The British, instead of announcing the rest of the area to be Jewish let everything slid, because of continual threats by Arabs states, some of which they themselves had help create out of the Ottoman Empire, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia. Strange how they could never live up to the requirements until 1948.

At that point the Arab League attacked and Tran-Jordan occupied what is call The West Bank. They were occupiers of what was intended to be part of the Jewish National Homeland. Trans-Jordan then renamed themselves “Jordan”, because Tran-Jordan meant across the Jordan Rive not both sides.

Since 1922 there has been two states, and from 1948 until 1967, Jordan illegally occupied part of the second state (The West Bank). They now no longer claim it, and support the creation of a third state.

So, not problem with a two state solution, as long as all areas of the Palestinian Mandate not split off to create Tran-Jordan belong to Israel.This would be the historical area of Israel including Judah and Samaria, which have historically been Israeli territories.

Jewish descendants of Israel have lived in Jerusalem and the area surrounding the city for over three thousand years. Jerusalem is, and has for three thousand years been Jerusalem DC (David's Capital). The Muslim World at heart, believes that Israel has no right to exist, because once conquer an area is always considered Muslim from that point on. In their minds Spain, part of France, Greece, Bulgaria, Croatia, parts of Romania belong to Islam (their World of Peace). All other areas of the world are up for grabs.
