Britain controlled Palestine from 1918-1948.
Britain, which had promised in 1917 in the Balfour Declaration to create a 'national home for the Jews' in Palestine. Britain was trying to keep in with both the Arabs and the Jews - and this little game of 'divide and rule' didn't work.

Are syria and palestine independent now?
Syria is independent, but is in a state of civil war. Palestine is quasi-independent because of the Israeli Occupation of the West Bank and the non-recognition of Hamas-controlled Gaza by most countries around the world.
What were Syria Palestine and Iraq promised during World War 1?
Nothing, as the question is written. Syria, Palestine, and Iraq were mandates/proto-states that were carved out of the Ottoman-controlled Middle East as a result of Sykes-Picot Agreement during World War I and were only realized in the Treaty of Versailles after World War I. As as a result, there was nothing to promise non-existent entities. What the question is likely intending to ask is "What was promised to the Arabs concerning the regions that would become Syria, Palestine, and Iraq during World War I?" -- If that is the case, please see the Related Link below.
