Thread Name: Palestine (continuation)
Subject: RE: Palestine (continuation)
"... the Arab world erred in rejecting the United Nations' 1947 plan to partition Palestine into a Palestinian and a Jewish state."

More correctly stated: "...into an Arab and a Jewish state".

There are already 20 states in the Arab World recognized by the United Nations.

What was called "Palestine" in the 1920 Mandate is now divided into at least three Arab countries plus Israel.
