After investigating various alternatives the United Nations proposed the partitioning of Palestine into two independent States, one Palestinian Arab and the other Jewish, with Jerusalem internationalized.
The actual wording of Resolution 181 stated:
Independent Arab and Jewish States and the Special International Regime for the City of Jerusalem, set forth in Part III of this Plan, shall come into existence in Palestine....
The Study omits to mention that 78% of Palestine had already become an independent Arab State in 1946 and been renamed the Hashemite Kingdom of Transjordan................
The only person attempting deceit here is Singer. Yet again he makes a dog's breakfast of it.
He openly states that Transjordan came into existence in 1946. So in 1947 when discussions about Palestine took place, they referred to what we perceive today as Israel and the Occupied Territories of Palestine. That is what the UN voted on in relation to Resolution 181. Now compare the two wordings. Both mention independent Arab and Jewish states with Jerusalem controlled internationally. There is absolutely nothing misleading about the Study's wording.
The only offending & misleading statement is Singer's pathetic attempt to blatantly muddy the water by dragging in Transjordan.
