Prior to World War I, the Middle East was part of the Ottoman empire, so there were no Arab states, apart from Egypt. After World War I, the Middle East came under British and French Mandates, so once again there were no Arab states. In any case, Palestine was not the property of other states to sell.
However, during the first half of the twentieth century, Jewish immigrants did buy up Palestinian farmland from both Turkish landlords and from the Palestinians themselves. When the Palestinians began to realise that these purchases were intended by the Jews as not only transfer of property rights, but also of sovereign rights, many Palestinians unsuccessfully opposed further sales of farmland to the Jews.

Was the gulf war a 'total war'?
AnswerTotal war would have involved nuclear weapons. Total means total.AnswerAn example of total war would be a scenario such as existed in recent times.Tony Blair and George bush decided to attack Saddam Hussain to change the regime and also to discover any future weapons/ plans he might have about trying to drag Israel into war with all Arab States.It started when Saddam tried to get a British company to make the barrels of a super gun aimed at Israel designed to drag all Arab states into war with the Jews who they believe accupy Arab land wrongly.The tubes were said to be for food processing but on inspection were found to be far too highly developed for that purpose.The Mussad ( The Israeli secret service ) discovered that the super guns designer had been desparate to sell his idea to the west but that failed and he had made a deal with Saddam,he was killed off and Her Majesties Customs hadintercepted the tubes being driven on the motorway on route to Iraq.Saddam was given many warnings about his developing arsenal but made excuses about their purpose saying that the rockets were for defence and did not have the fuel to reach Israel, it was discovered that a simple stage in the rockets productionmeant that a larger fuel cell could easily be fitted in order to reach jewish settlements.Finaly he was given a last warning,Resolution 1441 but the French and German members had no stomach for any conflict and when Saddam breached the rules once more only the more dedicated members went to war.Now let us take a different veiw! Saddam is still in power!,he fires a weapon into Israel and Israel retaliates,other Arab states join Iraq to fight the Jews,Israel is a nuclear power and has little choice in the end but to use nuclear weapons,radio active oil does not travel well at all so we all starve to death or fight to gain more oil producing land worldwide,world war meaning total and utter destruction of life as we know it.
