Subject: French Treachery -France was part of the Supreme Council enshrining exclusive Jewish sovereignty now calling for Arab State in Israel
Sovereignty was given to the Arabs in over 96% of the previously Ottoman-occupied lands in the Middle East. Jews were given tiny Palestine in recognition of their historical ties.
France is pushing for a second Arab political entity in Palestine (in addition to Jordan). Yet France already recognized – in international law, back in the 1920s – Jewish de jure sovereignty in all the land from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea, including Judea and Samaria, known erroneously as the West Bank.
As a member of the post WW1 Supreme Council of the Principal Allied Powers, France, along with Britain, Japan, Italy and the U.S. as observer had the power of disposition over the previously Ottoman occupied lands of the Middle East. The Supreme Council – in deciding to return the land to its original inhabitants – gave sovereignty to the Arabs in over 96% of the previously Ottoman-occupied lands in the Middle East. At the same time – in San Remo Italy – sovereignty rights were given to the Jewish People in tiny Palestine in recognition of our historical ties to the land.
Palestine was the Roman occupiers' name for the Jewish Homeland based on the Philistines who were no relation to Arabs today. The name of Palestine-Eretz Israel or just Palestine was synonymous with the over-3000-yea- old Jewish National Homeland, throughout the world, including in France as seen in the 1939 edition of the highly respected Larousse dictionary. The flag for Palestine is blue and white with a gold Jewish Star in the middle.
France and the other members of the League of Nations voted in 1922 to unanimously approve the British Mandate for Palestine, which demanded that Britain facilitate the return of the Jewish People to their Homeland. The Mandate also forbade the ceding of land to any powers other than the Jewish People. The borders of the Jewish State were set from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean although originally the Jewish State was to include land on the east side of the Jordan as well.
Despite the Arabs having received over 96% of the previously occupied Ottoman Empire lands in the Middle East, and despite the dictates of the Mandate, Britain illegally allowed huge numbers of Arabs to flood into tiny Palestine. The majority of Arabs in Israel today are descendants of Arabs who were native to over 20 other countries – not to Palestine –and who entered Palestine illegally under the British Mandate.
France's own great geographer, Vital Cuniet recorded that In 1882, there were only 141,000 Arabs in Palestine .
"The Arab population of Palestine was small and limited until Jewish resettlement restored the barren lands and drew to it Arabs from neighboring countries." This was stated by the Chairman of the American Christian Palestine Committee, Dr. Hermann Voss in 1953.
"This illegal immigration was not only going on from the Sinai, but also from Transjordan and Syria" regarding Arab immigration as stated by the British Governor of the Sinai (1922-33) in the Palestine Royal Commission Report.
Illegal Arab Immigrants Claimed to be Natives
Once the illegal Arab immigrants entered Palestine, they claimed they were the native people. This lie, along with constant Arab violence, was used by the British to justify curtailing the Jewish immigration that Britain had been mandated – under international law – to facilitate!
France and other members of the League betrayed international law and their sacred trust by allowing Britain to block the Jews from reaching their homeland, before, during and after the Holocaust. This was also the case of the United States who, through their separate Anglo-American Convention of 1924, were bound to respect the provisions of the Mandate.
A Blood-Land Libel
The accusation of Israel as an illegal occupier is the continuation of the Arab lie from the Mandate period. It is the "blood-land libel" of today. Arab violence today is the same Arab terrorism used to justify the betrayal of the Jewish People and block their immigration to their Homeland in the past. This treachery against the Jewish People by France and other members of the League of Nations prevented the Jews who were marked for Genocide from fleeing to the Land of Israel, recognized as the Jewish Homeland in international law decades before. Today, the Arab occupation lie and Arab violence are being used to push for another Arab State in Jewish Palestine-Eretz Israel – the Land of Israel. For France to support this occupation lie is to support the forces aimed at destroying the Jewish State.
