Now, Jim, you have NEVER answered my questions.

1. What percentage of the Mandate Palestine should be given to the Arab Moslums, and what percentage to the Jews? Remember,

"The 1922 census of Palestine was the first census carried out by the authorities of the British Mandate of Palestine, on 23 October 1922.[1]
The reported population was 757,182, including the military and persons of foreign nationality. The division into religious groups was 590,390 Muslims, 83,694 Jews, 73,024 Christians, 7,028 Druze, 1,454 Hindus, 808 Sikhs, 265 Bahais, 156 Metawalis, and 163 Samaritans.[2]"

That means that Muslims were 77.9% of the total population. And the Mandate power (Great Britain) split off over 77% of the land and created an Arab state, with Jews prohibited.

So how much of the less than 33% of the remaining Mandate Palestine territory would you say that the Arab Muslims should be given?

GIVE ME A NUMBER!
