![]() "Tom Sixkiller" wrote in message ... ??? IIRC, "Palestine" is a subset. A subset of what? In 1923 the British separated the Palestine Mandate at the Jordan River. The portion of Palestine east of the Jordan, about three fourths of the total area, became Transjordan and Jews were not permitted to settle there. A few years later the British added the area of desert connecting Transjordan with Iraq. In 1946 Transjordan became an independent nation and was renamed Jordan. |
