| b: "Lets go back to balfour decleration!!!!! this was the legal document" No, it was a promise by the British to the Jews that they could come to a land that was neither under Britain`s control nor sovereignty. It therefore had no legal standing at all. b:"endorsed and ratified by the league of nations" THAT`s when it gained legal standing, indeed true. b: "granting Jewis sovereignty over trans-jordan." And THAT`s where your argument falls down: the LoN clearly excluded any territory east of the Jordan River from the application of the Balfour Declaration (Article 25 of Mandate, if you care to look). |
