ALL OF ISRAEL WEST OF THE JORDAN RIVER IS LEGALLY THE JEWISH HOMELAND,
ACCORDING TO THE SAN REMO CONFERENCE OF 1920 WHICH HAS NEVER BEEN ABROGATED
Jewish Palestine is the Land of Israel
by Eli. E. Hertz - Myths and Facts
Forwarded with the following commentary by Emanuel A. Winston, Middle East Analyst & Commentator
Once historian Arnold Toynbee observed that Jews are what he called “The Fourth Estate”. The first three were the ruling aristocracy, the Church and the merchants. The “Fourth Estate” was the Jews whom he considered outside the norms of law enjoyed by the prior three.
History is replete with instances where the other three ‘estates’ could rob, cheat, plunder, rape and kill the Jews with a certain assurance that the Jews had no recourse to either recover their property or seek justice from the Courts or the King. Occasionally a tolerant ruler would allow the Jews to enter the closed circle of Justice but, that would be the exception.
Nothing much has changed as we observe the nations who acted as executioners of the Jews now join the 22 Arab Muslim countries and the 57 total Muslim countries, claiming that the 3000 year old ancient people, the Jews, have no right to the Land and Capital of Jerusalem that G-d gave to them in perpetuity.
The conglomerate of world nations lined up against Israel’s right to be a sovereign Jewish Nation/State in the Land of their matriarchs and Patriarchs and insist that the Jews must bow down to the ‘diktats’ of foreign rulers, such as President Barack Hussein Obama, the Tyrants of Islam and the Europeans (along with Russia) whose history of savaging their own Jewish people shames all mankind.
With the preceding in mind, I would like to call your attention to the well-researched book by Eli E. Hertz entitled: “THIS LAND IS MY LAND”. Hertz proves that the original “Mandate” for Jewish Palestine is still valid.
In 1922 the British arbitrarily cut off almost 80% of the “Mandate of Palestine” previously intended to be for a Jewish Homeland. The British made it the Emirate of Trans-Jordan for the Hashemite Prince Abdullah. His brother Faisal was made King of Syria and then King of Iraq.
Amazing how the Europeans manipulated the world in their triumph over the Muslim Turkish Ottoman Empire.
However, the Agreements signed at the 1920 San Remo Conference are still operative, legal and have never been cancelled. Therefore, as Hertz proves, the Jewish claim to sovereignty of even BOTH sides of the Jordan River has NEVER BEEN ABROGATED and IS STILL VALID! Israel still owns what is today referred to as the Kingdom of Jordan.
Therefore, Israel could transfer their claims on Jordan to the mix of Arab Muslims presently called “Palestinians” to Jordan where almost 80% of the population is “Palestinian”.
This would generously solve the so-called Israel-Palestinian Conflict. All Palestinian Arab Muslims not now living in Jordan could be legally deeded land in Jordan to be called their own Nation/State.
Under the San Remo Agreement, Israel is still the rightful owner of what was called Trans-Jordan and can transfer those rights to the so-called Palestinian people. They would be a wonderful benefit to increase the quality of life for the people in what is now the Kingdom of Jordan which is some 35,637 square miles – and needs a clever population to build up the vastly empty areas of Jordan. Israel is only 10,162 square miles - with Judea, Samaria and the Golan Heights.
With help from the world’s nations, the Muslim Palestinians are the only refugees still left stagnating (deliberately) by their host countries. They have been forced to live in the slums called refugee camps since WW2 and could be happily settled with their own people.
We must recall that both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia transferred collectively 700,000 Palestinians into Jordan after the 1991 First Gulf War. They considered that those Palestinian Arabs who had temporarily migrated into Kuwait and Saudi Arabia for work were hostile and a danger to their respective governments. Today Jordan has a Palestinian population equaling 70-80% of Jordan’s citizens.
This then could be the straight-forward fair, legal and just offer:
Israel could issue a “Quit-Claim” to the Trans-Jordan territories, East of the Jordan River that is those territories originally deeded for the creation of a Jewish Homeland by the San Remo Conference Agreement of 1920 which was confirmed by the League of Nations and the United States Congress.
The recipient of this “Quit Claim” would either be the Palestinian Authority, in whatever form it takes or to the Kingdom of Jordan, providing it accepts all the so-called Palestinians West of the Jordan River – as well as those in various “refugee camps” into which they’ve been forced to live throughout the Middle East.
They would have to include all of Hamas and Fatah. Nothing in these transfers of equity would relate to any part of Jerusalem, the Golan Heights or return of any so-called Arab Palestinian refugees to land West of the Jordan.
Those Muslim Arabs currently living West of the Jordan would not HAVE to move - IF, they would commit to being peaceful residents West of the Jordan. They could not continue to incite violence and teach their children to hate and kill Jews in their schools, media and on their television programs. They could hold Jordanian citizenship and vote in Jordan. This might be controversial but, it beats war, terror, delegitimizing the Jewish Nation/State and the incitement to violence.
Any discussion of compensation would also factor in the property and lives of the 800,000 Jewish refugees ejected from all the Arab Muslim countries as an extension of continued pledged hostilities against the Jewish State.
All Charters of the Arab League, Arafat’s PLO, Hezb’Allah and Hamas will be mutually declared null and void wherever they refer to Israel’s destruction.

JEWISH PALESTINE IS THE LAND OF ISRAEL by Eli. E. Hertz –
Myths and Facts, October 8th, 2010
The “Mandate for Palestine,” an historical League of Nations document, laid down the Jewish legal right to settle anywhere in western Palestine, between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, an entitlement unaltered in international law.
The “Mandate for Palestine” was not a naive vision briefly embraced by the international community. 51 member countries-the entire League of Nations-unanimously declared on July 24, 1922:”Whereas recognition has been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country.”
It is important to point out that political rights to self-determination as a polity for Arabs were guaranteed by the same League of Nations in four other mandates-in Lebanon and Syria [The French Mandate], Iraq, and later Trans- Jordan [The British Mandate].
Before the Zionist movement assumed concrete form, among the first to express approval of the return of the Jews to Palestine was John Adams, the second President of the United States, who wrote to Maj. Mordecai Manuel Noah, the first American Zionist, as follows:
“I really wish the Jews again in Judea, an independent nation; as I believe, the most enlightened men of it have participated in the amelioration of the philosophy of the ages; once restored to an independent government, and no longer persecuted, they would soon wear a way some of the asperities and peculiarities of their character. I wish your nation may be admitted to all the privileges of citizens in every part of the world. This country (America) has done much; I wish it may do more and annul every narrow idea in religion, government, and commerce.” (1819).
Any attempt to negate the Jewish people's right to Palestine-Eretz-Israel, and to deny them access and control in the area designated for the Jewish people by the League of Nations is a serious infringement of international law.
Professor Eli E. Hertz has researched and published a remarkable book of only 50 pages entitled: “THIS LAND IS MY LAND: MANDATE FOR PALESTINE – THE LEGAL ASPECTS OF JEWISH RIGHTS”. It is published by MYTHS AND FACTS, INC. at PO Box 941, Forest Hills, NY 11375.
Contact@MythsandFacts.orgHighlights of this work of immortal history include:
1. The Legal Aspects of Jewish Rights to a National Home in Palestine
a. Founding of Modern Zionism: May 2, 1860 to July 3, 1904
b. Balfour Declaration: November 2, 1917
2. Origin and Nation of the “Mandate for Palestine”
3. Recognition of the Jewish People’s Historical Connection to Palestine
4. Palestine is a Geographical Area, Not a Nationality
5. There Has Never Been a Sovereign Arab or Muslim State in Palestine
6. The “Mandate” Defined Where Jews Are and Are Not Permitted to Settle
7. Political Rights in Palestine Were Granted to Jews Only
8. Jewish Peoplehood in Palestine
9. Jerusalem in “Mandate” Time
10. Jewish Rights to Palestine Were Internationally Guaranteed:
“The [Balfour] Declaration was endorsed at the time by several of the Allied Governments; it was reaffirmed by the Conference of the Principal Allied Powers at San Remo in 1920; it was subsequently endorsed by unanimous resolutions of both House of the U.S. Congress; it was embodied in the Mandate for Palestine approved by the League of Nations in 1922; it was declared, declared in a formal statement of policy issued by the [British] Colonial Secretary in the same year, ‘not to be susceptible of change.’ “
Eleven successive British governments, Labor and Conservative, from 1916 to 1952 viewed themselves as duty-bound to fulfill the “Mandate for Palestine”.
11. “Nothing was said in the Mandate about the internationalization of Jerusalem” as the spiritual, political, and historical capital of the Jewish People – an undisputed part of the Jewish National Home.
12. United States Government and the “Mandate” Policy. President Woodrow Wilson on March 3, 1919 said: “We are agreed that “in Palestine shall be laid the foundation of a Jewish Commonwealth.”
13. The “Mandate for Palestine” is Valid to This Day. The Mandate granted Jews the irrevocable right to settle anywhere in Palestine, between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, a right unaltered in international law and valid to this day. Jewish settlements in Judea and Samaria, Gaza, the Golan Heights and the whole of Jerusalem are legal.
14. Futile Efforts to Challenge the “Mandate for Palestine”
Many myths of today are demolished in this chapter, including “Palestine Was Promised to the Arabs by the British government.” And: “The 1949 ‘Green Line’ is Israel’s Internationally Recognized Border. It was merely the final deployment of Israeli and Arab forces on the ground after Israel’s War of Independence in 1948.”
The Biggest Myth: “Palestinian Arabs Seek Peace with Israel.”
Prof. Hertz presents the 3 Charters: The PLO Charter; the FATEH Constitution; and the Hamas Charter – All declare that they will wipe Israel off the map, by obliteration of Zionist economic, political, military and cultural existence - by “armed struggle – a revolution” by Islam in honor of Hassan al-Banna (who created the Muslim Brotherhood).
The Second Half of Hertz’s book gives you invaluable Appendices, Notes – including Israel’s 1948 Declaration of Independence all of which will give you the verbal and written ammunition to defend and protect our Jewish Nation/State of Israel, to keep her and her people safe, secure and sovereign. Hertz includes maps, original documents, and wise words of many an educated scholar.
Note from Emanuel A. Winston:
We Jews have inalienable Rights to the Land that was called Palestine by the Romans in 135 C.E. to obliterate the “Jew” in “Judea” and is now Israel. We bow our heads before no one but G-d, and we will protect our G-d given Rights forever.
