P F Tinmore, et al,
Why don't you explain the timeline and why this was basically ignored?
(COMMENT)
First, this comes after the MAY 1948 Declaration of Independence of the State of Israel.
You are blowing smoke, Rocco. When Palestine declared independence the UN did not recognize Israel. Palestine declared its territory inside its already existing international borders. Israel claimed no territory. It is not like Palestine was declared on top of another state.
More smoke, Rocco. The Palestinians had the right to reject resolution 181 and they did like anyone else in the world would do. Thr Palestinians had the right to declare independence. Israel not so much.
You crack me up, Rocco. Really you do.
You got a link for that?
Yes, it is a matter of record, but not acknowledged.
Go back and try again. Don't try to use some cheap Arab trick to make your point. It would be like me sending the UN a Cablegram saying the RoccoR National Authority has the honor of declaring the West Bank as the State of Roccoland. Two entities cannot claim the same ground.
What ever happened to the Lebanese born Ottoman General called Ahmed Hilmi Pasha? And what did the Arab League do to the Arab Higher Committee?
Most Respectfully,
R
Provide a link showing 'Palestine' declaring independence inside her borders
