๐Ÿ“… 28 Augustus 1919 ๐Ÿ“ Palestina

Organizations/movement: Palestinian petitioners; General Syrian Congress. Action: Local delegations and petitioners presented objections to the Zionist program to the American commission. Its recommendations were issued on 28 August. Result: The report recognized strong local opposition and recommended major modification of the program. Its recommendations were not implemented as Palestineโ€™s governing settlement. Impact / interpretation: This is a case of obtaining documentary recognition without securing political power. The report preserved evidence of public preferences that contradicted claims that the inhabitants had consented.
