This map shows the UN's plan for
the division of Western Palestine into Jewish and Arab states, and
an international Jerusalem and Bethlehem. The plan was
accepted by the mainstream Zionists (rejected by the militant Zionists), and
was rejected outright by the Arabs. If the Arabs had excepted it,
they would have gotten 47% of Western Palestine. Right now the most
they can possibly get through negotiations is about 23% (the Westbank, Gaza, and
East Jerusalem).
