If my historical memory is correct - there was no land to be "given" it was occupied land that was relinquished. The inhabitants of that land therefore had first claim on the land.

Strange that you forget the option of giving the land to both the Arabs and Jews and Christians and everyone else that lived there, and had it be non-denominational, a la Lebanon Elroy, Lebanon has NEVER been non-denominational. Power-sharing agreements between denominational groups is quite different from non-denominational. Furthermore, power-sharing was not an option in Palestine. Negotiations were tried, but the Arabs would not negotiate. The Mufti, their leader, was an ardent Nazi and his idea of power sharing was to implement the Final Solution. The plan was to get the other Arab armies to help destroy the Jews. The plan was tried. The plan failed.
