accepting the mandate from palestine, after the first world war, his majesty's government in the united kingdom undertook to work for the establishment of national home for the jewish people on the understanding that nothing should be done which might prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-jewish communities in pales. it was assumed at that time that the objects of the mandate could be carried out with the consent and cooperation of both peoples. time has shown that this assumption was incorrect. arabs were against the establishment of a jewish ruling under any circumstances and they were vocal in their opposition. i come to you sir, as a representative of the people of palestine, as in arab whose roots are deeply embedded in that... tortured blank, the arab people are deeply anxious to find a just and lasting solution to the problem before you. jewish people belongs in this society of nations. surely the jewish people is no less deserving than other peoples whose national freedom and independence have been established and whose representatives are now. seated here, the jewish

soviet union, yes, united kingdom, spain, the united states, yes, rbi, yes. venezuela, yes, yemen, no, yugoslavia, abstain, the resolution of the duck committee for palestine was adopted by 33 votes, 13 against, 10 abstention, now the jews had a land after. trees of homelessness, and that was the promised land, jerusalem, no one insulted them anymore. there were no nazi furnaces, instead of wearing the star of david on their armband, they proudly put on the flag of their newly established state and free. really prayed against the whaling wall. the international community allowed them to establish the sole called state of israel on palestinian land because of the depression they suffered during the holocaust in europe. but palestinians were forced to leave their homes so jews could live in them. there's no place for palestinians any longer except for refugee camps established by israel, but what did the holocas have to do with the palestinians, they had absolutely no role in it. چون از نظر اعتقادی یه مسلمانها خیلی به همدیگه نزدیک بودن بخصوص بحث توحید این نیست
