Having sucked upto the europeans in order to rebel against the Ottoman Empire, the arab nations [created out of pico-sykes] were in NO position to make such emotive statements as: On 24 November the head of the Egyptian delegation to the General Assembly, Muhammad Hussein Heykal Pasha, said that “the lives of 1,000,000 Jews in Moslem countries would be jeopardized by the establishment of a Jewish state.[65] At the 29th Meeting of the UN Ad Hoc Committee on Palestine on 24 November 1947, Dr Heykal Pasha, the Egyptian delegate, said, if the U.N decide to amputate a part of Palestine in order to establish a Jewish state, no force on earth could prevent blood from flowing there…Moreover…no force on earth can confine it to the borders of Palestine itself…Jewish blood will necessarily be shed elsewhere in the Arab world… to place in certain and serious danger a million Jews. Mahmud Bey Fawzi (Egypt) said: …imposed partition was sure to result in bloodshed in Palestine and in the rest of the Arab world [1] References: 1. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Partition_Plan_for_Palestine
