BLUF: You get this wrong every single time.
Borders are defined between the powers having authority on each side of the border.
The issue of territorial integrity is not an issue until sovereignty is established.
Your implied position that the Arab Palestinians had some territorial integrity is rendered moot because they were not a party to any agreement in the creation of a State for their sovereign control.
Most Respectfully,

In regards to the "Stupid Question" remark: I would argue that it is YOU that has been NOT listening or paying attention, to the opposing respondents and their citations.
(COMMENT)Foreign powers have no authority over international borders. Territorial integrity.
Borders are defined between the powers having authority on each side of the border.
The issue of territorial integrity is not an issue until sovereignty is established.
Dictionary of International Law said:territory, concept of ‘State territory is that defined portion of the surface of the globewhich is subjected to the sovereignty of a state. A state without a territory is not possible,although the necessary territory may be very small. . . . The importance of state territorylies in the fact that it is the space within which the state exercises its supreme, and normallyexclusive, authority’: I Oppenheim 563 and 564.
