	A State of Aggression: The UN Partition Plan of 1947 - Palestine Monitor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Yet the rejection of the 1947 UN Plan was predictable given the expansionist plans of the Zionists and the inequity in the act of carving Israel out of the inhabited lands of another.
		The Partition Plan granted 55 percent of Palestine to the Jews, who at that time comprised only 30 percent of the population, and who owned a mere 6 or 7 percent of the land.
		The major reason the Palestinians rejected the partition resolution was on the grounds of its lack of fairness: it proposed to give the minority population an exclusive and hegemonic right to the majority of the land.

	Why did Arabs reject the proposed UN GA partition plan which split Palestine into Jewish and Arab states?
		The 1947 UN GA proposed partition plan of Palestine is often used by Israelis and Zionists to obscure facts from those new to the argument.
		Although the proposed Peel Commission's partition plan was rejected because the areas allocated to the "Jewish state" was "too small," the concept of partitioning the country was adopted by the 20th Zionist Congress.
		Note the premeditated plan to occupy and ethically cleanse areas, such as Galilee and Jerusalem, which were not allotted to the "Jewish State" by the 1947 UN GA Partition plan.

		In seeking the principles on which the partition of Palestine, proposed by the Special Committee on Palestine, might be based, he did not i admit that the partition of Palestine was justified by any of the reasons usually advanced in its favour.
		The opponents of the partition of Palestine into two separate, independent, democratic States usually point to the fact that this decision would, as they allege, be directed against the Arabs, against the Arab population in Palestine and against the Arab States in general.

	Press Release - ADL Deplores UN Resolution Recycling 1947 UN Partition Plan
		It is astounding that the Human Rights Commission is recycling a dated and irrelevant resolution (UN Resolution 181) which set out a partition plan dividing the land between Israel and the Palestinians.
		In 1947 this resolution was rejected by the Arabs and Palestinians.
		At a time when energies should be focused on pushing the sensitive peace process forward, it is disturbing that the UN Human Rights Commission has chosen to pass this resolution which omits certain critical principles of the peace process.

		This speech by Andrei Gromyko in the UN debate made it clear that the Soviet Union eventually would support partition only because the Arabs had made it impossible to create a one state state solution.
		It also makes it abundantly clear that in 1947, contrary to its later stand and contrary to ideological pronouncements of Marxists, the USSR did not consider Zionism to be racist or colonialist.
		In analysing the various plans for the future of Palestine, it is essential, first of all, to bear in mind the specific aspects of this question.

	Arabs Reject UN Partition Plan
		Arab rejection of partition in 1947 reflected a crisis of leadership in a community whose identity as Palestinians was not yet fully crystallized.
		As the partition vote in the UN approached, it became clear little hope existed for a political solution to a problem that transcended politics: the Arabs' unwillingness to accept a Jewish state in Palestine and the refusal of the Zionists to settle for anything less.
		The categorical rejection of partition by the Arab Higher Committee led by Haj Amin al-Huseini as well as the newly created Arab League represented an all-or-nothing attitude that was ultimately counterproductive.
