Did the Palestinians believe that Britain was the "legal manager"?

Or were the Brits the legal managers of Palestine in the same sense that the US is the legal manager of Iraq?

Is the UN suddenly infallible? I thought the right wing wanted to see the UN disbanded?

I think the UN made a huge error in claiming Palestine for Israel.

That said if any Jew wanted to live in Palestine they could have done so without the sanctioning of such by some "legal manager".

The uprooting of the existing culture, politics and livelihood first by the "legal managers" and then by their assigns, the Jews, has left a huge hole in the soul of the Palestinians that were displaced. They have had to suffer discrimination and economic sanctions from their new "legal managers".

I'm not surprised that the Arab response was war. The Indians responded with war to the advances of the Americans. So did the Mexicans.

It all boils down to the definition of legal, which in this world can be immediately condensed to might makes right.
