I have to remind you– Before the State of Israel, the Jerusalem Post was called the Palestinian Post.
The Palestine Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1936 under the leadership of Bronislaw Huberman. Huberman, a violinist, who at first envisioned an international center for the arts, but instead focused on developing a critically acclaimed symphony orchestra in Palestine.
The Palestine Electric Company was founded in 1923 by Pinhas Rutenberg (a Jewish engineer), who was granted two concessions by the Mandatory government.
Hebrew University of Jerusalem Established 24 July 1918 The Hebrew University of Jerusalem is a public research university based in Jerusalem, Israel. Co-founded by Albert Einstein and Chaim Weizmann in July 1918, the public university officially opened in April 1925 It is the second-oldest Israeli university, having been founded 30 years before the establishment of the State of Israel but six years after the older Technion university
And the UNRWA definition of a Palestine refugee in 1952: “A Palestine refugee is [a person] whose normal residence was Palestine for a [minimum period of two years] preceding the outbreak of the conflict in 1948 and who, as a result of this conflict has lost both his home and his means of livelihood.”
As you can see, the definition of “refugees” omitted the reference to persons of Arab origin in the 1948 General Assembly proposal, and included all stateless persons who had been residents of Palestine for a minimum of two years. —Before 1948, both Jews and Arabs carried the British Passport Palestine for ID.
