A claim heard is that according to the UN resolution from 1947, the Palestinians deserve a state on the territories of Judea and Samaria, a decision better known as the “Partition Plan”. In fact, according to the Plan that was accepted in the UN by a majority of votes, it was proposed to the Jews and Arabs in the Land of Israel to divide the land into two separate and independent states. The Jews accepted the offer, but the Arabs totally rejected it: the head of the Arab delegation to the United Nations declared that “the dividing line will be nothing but a line of fire and blood.” The day after the vote, five Jews were murdered by Arabs, and the War of Independence broke out.
