ITFT -“The Peel Commission of 1937 offered to grant autonomy or independence to the inhabitants
the Arabs rejected giving any territory to the New Yishuv
The New Yishuv rejected what they were being offered”
The mistake you’re making is that the original mandate was separating Tran-Jordan and Palestine.
Palestine was for the Jews.
The hateful British changed that!
This change continued with the UN.
From the internet:
Resolution 181 was a none-binding recommendation to partition Palestine, whose implementation hinged on acceptance by both parties – Arabs and Jews. The resolution was adopted on November 29, 1947 in the General Assembly by a vote of 33 – 12, with 10 abstentions. Among the supporters were both the United States and the Soviet Union, and other nations including France and Australia. The Arab nations, including Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia denounced the plan on the General Assembly floor and voted as a bloc against Resolution 181 promising to defy its implementation by force.
