According to UN Resolution 181, the Mandate of Palestine was divided into a Jewish and an Arab State with each state being given the right to become independent in the territory. The Jews declared independence according to this permission in 1948 with the State of Israel. The Arabs used this permission to declare a state-in-absentia in 1988 called Palestine. In 1993, the Oslo Accords granted land to the Palestinian Authority, the same agency that declared a State of Palestine. The International Court of Justice held that the UN Resolution worked as a legal basis for both Israel and Palestine.
There are over 50 Islamic countries, so Palestine is certainly not the only Islamic country, but if you are considering Israel and Palestine, yes, Palestine is the Islamic country while Israel is the Jewish country.

No. What is now Israel did not exist as an independent country at the time but was part of British Mandate of Palestine and therefore under British rule then. In the course of the fighting in N. Africa in World War 2 the Germans did not reach Cairo and did not cross the Suez Canal. So, there was no Holocaust in Palestine/Israel.
Brazil was the first country in the world to recognize Palestine as an independent state, just last year, after a personal request made by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. Therefore, Brazil and Palestine have good relations. Although Israel views such unilateral recognition as something that undermines its interests, the relations with Brazil have not worsened. Brazil is "for" Palestine yet not against Israel.
No. Palestine is its own country, which is bifurcated and borders Egypt, Israel, and Jordan.
