Also Britain: Oh good, the UN voted in favor of splitting up the land except the entire Arab League voting against the plan? Ok, sounds good, bye guys, have fun!
It's like an HOA: The council is deciding how to divide up your backyard between your neighbors. The lawn owner is the only dissenting vote and then the neighborhood wonders why they are being so hostile.
Except in this case it costs you not just your backyard but basically your entire life.
In this case the land owner has been renting for 100 years and doesn't really care what the tenant thinks.
Also Britain: our troops and colonial administrators are getting killed and attacked by both groups of locals, bye guys, I'm noping out of here!
