In the name of God, the Compassionate, the Merciful,
Palestine, the land of the three monotheistic faiths, is where the Palestinian Arab people was born, on which it grew, developed and excelled. Thus the Palestinian Arab people ensured for itself an everlasting union between itself, its land, and its history.

Partition Plan of 1947:
Blue=Jewish State
Pink=Palestinian State
Green=Palestinian State based on 1967 borders

Jerusalem kinda looks like a pearl in an oyster.
