“Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs. What is going on in Palestine today cannot be justified by any moral code of conduct.
The mandates have no sanction but that of the last war. Surely it would be a crime against humanity to reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to the Jews partly or wholly as their national home.
“The nobler course would be to insist on a just treatment of the Jews wherever they are born and bred. The Jews born in France are French.”
(Gandhi, 1938, in a letter on the issue of a Jewish state in Palestine)
