First, a note from the writer:
The State of Israel has the right to exist in the Land of Israel, according to the etched in stone International Law. These laws, the United Nations Organization (UN) and the International community, including the United States, choose to brush under the carpet, white wash, water down or illegally alter its content. One Israel government after another never ever, used and repeatedly announced to the world about the Mandate for Palestine and the strong legal and political stance the Mandate gives the State of Israel, thus, Israel itself leaves a wide open window to delegitimize the State of Israel. To add to the Israeli government mistaken policy practice, the UN, the Europeans and America's discourse of the Mandate for Palestine is deliberately ignored, which also leaves a wide open window to delegitimize Israel. But the God of the Jews knows about this document and you need to know it too!
למדינת ישראל יש את הזכות להתקיים בארץ ישראל, על פי החוק הבינלאומי החקוק באבן. חוקים אלה ארגון האומות המאוחדות (האו"ם) והקהילה הבינלאומית, כולל ארצות הברית, בוחרים לטאטה למתחת לשטיח, לסייד בלבן, לדלל, או לשנות, את התוכן שלהם באופן לא חוקי. ממשלת ישראל, אחת אחרי השניה, מעולם, ואף פעם, לא השתמשה והכריזה לעולם, שוב ושוב, על המנדט לפלסטין ועל העמדה החוקית הפוליטית החזקה שהמנדט נותן למדינת ישראל, וכך היא עצמה משאירה חלון פתוח לרווחה כדי לשלול את הלגיטימיות של מדינת ישראל. להוסיף לנוהג המדיני המוטעה של ממשלת ישראל, בשיחותיהם, האו"ם, האירופים ואמריקה מתעלמים במכוון מהמנדט לפלסטין, שגם משאיר חלון פתוח לרווחה כדי לשלול את הלגיטימיות של ישראל. אבל אלוהי היהודים יודע על מסמך זה, וגם אתה צריך לדעת אותו. How can one defend any of Israel's rights to the land and its right to exist on the Land of Eretz Israel if one does not know enough or about one of the most vital components of the making of the Jewish State, which is the Mandate for Palestine?! This is how and why we, Jews, and Israel's supporters are losing the battle; we do not know the facts that we need to have to rebuttal the vicious attacks on the State of Israel!
איך אפשר להגן על זכות כל שהיא של עם ישראל לאדמת ארץ ישראל וזכותו להתקיים על אדמה זו, אם אין מספיק מידע או לא יודעים על אחד המרכיבים החיוניים ביותר של יצירת מדינת היהודים, שהוא המנדט לפאלסטין?! ולכן, ככה אנחנו, היהודים, ותומכי ישראל מפסידים בקרב. אנחנו לא יודעים את העובדות שלהן אנחנו זקוקים כדי לסתור את ההתקפות הארסיות על מדינת ישראל!

History of Modern Israel That Must Be Taken Out of The Archives of Oblivion
The Deed To The Land Of Israel Issued At The San Remo Conference
היסטוריה של ישראל המודרנית שיש להוציא מארכיון השכחה-הטאבו לאדמות מדינת ישראל שהונפק בועידת סן רמו
April 11, 2011
By Nurit Greenger
Not too long ago Israel participated in indirect talks with the Arabs, calling themselves "Palestinians." Israel's intentions are naively good; the People of in Israel want to live in peace, which, since 1948, the Arabs have not allowed them to have. The Arabs' intentions are vindictive and bad. Between the Israeli and the Arab camps stands the United States that is pushing for an Arab State carved out of the legal land of Israel, out of the heart of Israel. To establish such Arab state will mean to kick out thousands of Jews now living in Judea and Samaria and establish on that land a Judenrein – ethnically cleansed of Jews or, Judenfrei – free of Jews - Arab state.
I hereby take a stand for the entire Jewish Nation. I beseech the Israeli government to abandon its vicious thought of wanting to allow an Arab state to be established on historical Jewish land going back 4,000 years. If the Arabs in question really want statehood, a country to call their own, it must not be on account of the sliver of land, the tiny niche of Jewish homeland, in an area once was known as the Kingdom of Israel.
Two historical events must be kept in mind and guide the Israeli government line of thought:
· The Balfour Declaration, 94 years ago, and
· The Mandate for Palestine, 91 years ago.
Many articles were written about the San Remo Conference and the San Remo Resolution. However, till today, the Arab world has not accepted that the Jewish Homeland was re-established on its original land of Zion-in Hebrew Tziyon. Since Israel's declared Independence, the Arabs have set themselves on a path to delegitimize, thus undo, the Jewish State of Israel, using any mean available to them. They are doing so with the help of many countries as well as the anti-Semitic and Left-Liberal Camps. One of the main tools the 'Let's delegitimize Israel' camp uses to undo the State of Israel is to brainwash the world that Israel's sovereignty is questionable or illegitimate. To do that, this vicious camp distorts, more so fabricates, general and Jewish history in the Land of Israel.
The Balfour Declaration
Three years afore the San Remo Conference that took place in 1920, on November 2nd 1917, the British Foreign Secretary, Arthur James Balfour, issued the Balfour Declaration. The Declaration was made in a letter Balfour sent to Baron Walter Rothschild, a leader of the British Jewish community, for transmission to the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland. The letter reflected the formal position of the British Cabinet, as agreed upon in a meeting on 31 October 1917. It further stated that the declaration is a sign of "sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations."
The historical Balfour Declaration was issued through the efforts of Chaim Weizmann and Nachum Sokolow, the principal Zionist leaders based in London, who had asked for the reconstitution of Palestine as the Jewish national home.
The Balfour Declaration states that "His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national Home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country."
The precise boundaries of all territories were left unspecified, to "be determined by the Principal Allied Powers" and were not finalized until four years later, in the Mandate for Palestine issued at the San Remo Conference. The Conference's decisions were embodied in the stillborn Treaty of Sèvres that Turkey rejected. The Conference's decisions were finally confirmed by the Council of the League of Nations on July 24th 1922, and only when Turkey accepted its terms in the 1923 Treaty of Lausanne.
The Mandate for Palestine
From the 19 to 26 of April 1920, the four Principal Allied Powers of World War I attended the San Remo Conference* held at Villa Devachan, in Sanremo, Italy. This was a post World War I international meeting attended by David Lloyd George of Britain, Alexandre Millerand of France, Francesco Nitti of Italy and Ambassador K. Matsui of Japan, known as the "Council of Four." The United States acted as the Observer.
In Sanremo or San Remo, an Italian city founded in Roman times, located on the Mediterranean coast of western Liguria, in north-western Italy, the Allied Powers of World War I returned the Deed to the Land of Israel, the Deed that was illegally held by numerous conquerors for over 2,000 years, to the Jewish People.
In the San Remo Conference, the Allied divided the Ottoman Empire's land with Britain receiving the mandate for Palestine and Iraq and France gained control of Syria including present-day Lebanon. The San Remo Resolution, adopted on 25 April 1920, incorporated the Balfour Declaration of 1917; it and Article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations were the basic documents upon which the Mandate for Palestine was constructed.
The outcome of the San Remo declaration gave birth to the "Mandate for Palestine," an historical League of Nations document that laid down the legal right of Jews to settle anywhere in western Palestine, a 10,000 square-miles the area between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea.
Fifty-one 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 must be emphasized that the San Remo Resolution recognized the exclusive national Jewish rights to the Land of Israel, under international law, on the strength of the historical connection of the Jewish people to the territory, previously known as Palestine.
Jews are in the Land of Israel as of right and not on sufferance.
The importance of the San Remo Resolution - which included the Balfour Declaration in its entirety - shaped the map of the modern Middle East, as agreed upon by the Supreme Council of the Principal Allied Powers, and later approved, unanimously, by the League of Nations; the Resolution remains irrevocable, legally binding and valid to this day.
Unfortunately, this seminal event, known as the San Remo Conference and the Mandate for Palestine declared there, has been left out of the curriculum, has been forgotten, or ignored by the community of nations, and the rights it conferred upon the Jewish people have been unlawfully, whitewashed, dismissed, curtailed and denied.
It is important to point out that political right to self-determination as a polity for Arabs, was 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].
Only recognizing the well established rights of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel, under international law, will allow to assert a just and lasting peace, leading to the acceptance of secured and recognized borders between Israel and all other states in the region.
Any attempt to negate the Jewish People's right to Eretz-Yisrael-the Land of Israel, and to deny them access and control over the area designated for the Jewish People by the League of Nations is a serious infringement of international law.
To the Jewish People and their Homeland, Israel, the San Remo's Mandate for Palestine is as important as the Bible. Just as the Bible is known to all so thus the San Remo's Mandate for Palestine must be known to all. Without knowing the simple facts of the San Remo's outcome and the Mandate for Palestine, one cannot defend Israel from the ongoing onslaught of accusation of being an "occupier" of the land that legally belongs to the Jewish Nation, land Israel simply regained or took back, not took over, from the real illegal occupier, the Arabs, in 1967, in the miraculous Six Day War.
Responsible people who study and understand the Mandate for Palestine and the UN Resolutions that followed and adopted it, which brought Israel to be a sovereign country, would not make irresponsible statements against Israel that give false hopes to Arabs, and others. The State of Israel and Jews are protected by the law and the law is protected by the State of Israel and Jews. Israel and Jews don't invent, or have interpretation of no reality. The law is on the side of the Jewish Nation. Pro-Israel people need to learn the facts and know it. It is easier to bring to light the truth when one knows the subject.
The Land of Israel's Birth Certificate is recorded in the Torah-Old Testament and the San Remo Conference's Mandate for Palestine, acknowledges it, thus, cannot be undone.

*The San Remo Conference was attended by Chaim Weizmann, Nahum Sokolow, and Herbert Samuel, who presented a memorandum to the British delegation on the final settlement in the Eastern Mediterranean region. Lord Balfour was called in for consultations.

Subject: San Remo, Italy Conference on April 24-25, 1920 - Dear Friends, let the truth be known...
To: Nurit
Politicians create constructive ambiguity purposely, for their own political gain, thus deliberately fail to recognize the facts.
Note: Since the Oslo Accords, one Israeli government after another has acted along schizophrenic ambiguity policy that only hurt the State of Israel and advanced the Arabs' favorable stance on the world's stage. Had Israel, since 1967 stuck to and followed the Mandate for Palestine and what Resolutions 181, 242 and 338 precisely stand for, the picture of today would have looked so much different and so much in favor or Israel.

San Remo, Italy Conference on April 24-25, 1920
The San Remo Conference: a day that changed Modern Jewish History.
This year it is the 91st anniversary of one of the brightest event in recent Jewish history and should be celebrated with great fanfare.
The 25th of April is fast approaching. We call on all journalists, bloggers, and the public at large, to write a commemorative article, to celebrate this most important event and to forward this message to their lists.
On that day, in 1920, the legal rights of the Jewish people in their ancestral Land of Israel were, legally, recognized by the world powers and was, unequivocally, enshrined in international law.
At a time when the image of Israel has been tarnished by its enemies and their cohorts, who are, relentlessly, torrent falsehoods and lies about Israel, foolishly embraced by western democracies; at the time when the very existence, legitimacy and security needs of the Jewish State of Israel are being ignored and questioned; at the time when the “international community” is on the verge of planting a new time bomb, within the Land of Israel legal borders, we ought to stand up and demand that the world follows International legalities, not deception and destortion.
AND we are called to commemorate the ninety-first anniversary of the San Remo Conference and the Mandate For Palestine Declaration.
Let the truth be known!
San Remo Commemoration 2010:
Video excerpts: http://www.cilr.org/events/san-remo-commemoration
The United States' administration, under Obama, is considering the Jewish "settlements" in Judea and Samaria to be illegal and by saying that, they are totally ignoring article 6 of the Mandate for Palatine, which says that the settlements in Israel are not only accepted but they are encouraged and they need to be encouraged in our land that is west of the Jordan River.
So, the decision of the US Government seems to be made either for appeasement purposes, or for political reasons, or pressure of politics, but no matter what, it certainly violets the basic premises of International Law that holds the legal premises to the Mandate for Palatine. One other aspect the Obama Administration ignores, but cannot, is that in 1924 the United Sates had signed a convention, a treaty between Britain and the United States, in which they accepted the Mandate for Palestine, word by word. Thus, the United States is implicitly engaged in distorting the 28 Articles of the Mandate's Provisions. By saying that some of the "settlements" should be dismantle and others are illegal, what the Unites State officially saying is that it is running against the official text it has signed and in Article 5 of the US Constitution, what the US signed in 1924 is the law of the land. Therefore, it is very problematic.
Some people argue that United Nations (UN) Resolutions 181, 242 and 338 have superseded the Mandate for Palestine. That is not true.
Resolutions 181 was issued by the UN General Assembly and is not a binding resolution. Resolutions 181 was not accepted by both parties – the Arab States and Israel – and it had created havoc since November 1947 until May 1948, when the Arab States attacked Israel and the war started. Resolutions 181 is a DEAD issue.
Resolutions 242, was issued by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), under the UNSC Chapter 6, which is not absolutely binding per say. Resolutions 242 calls for negotiations in order to arrive at a just and lasting peace, the end if the belligerency and secured and recognized borders between the states in the region.
Interesting point: neither Resolution 242 of 1967 or Resolution 338 of 1973, that followed the Yom Kippur War, mention the word "Palestinians". That means that up to 1973, "Palestinians" were not mention in any Resolution; they simply did not exist!
All these UN Resolutions are trying to do is deal with Israel and its neighboring states. As long as there are no open negotiations between the belligerents parties, Israel and the Arab countries, there is no reason for Israel to withdraw from any territory because Resolution 242's conditions any withdrawal to the establishment of secure and recognized border, (which the Arabs object to and reject!!!)
