Who controlled Palestine before world war 2?
"Before WW2" is a lot of historical landscape. Here's a simple breakdown:As the answerer below identified, Britain was the last foreign power in control of the region known collectively as Palestine. Before them it was held by the Ottoman Turks, given to them after the British took it back from Muhammad Ali Pasha of Egypt and the Sudan. Muhammad Ali took it from Abdullah Pasha of Acre who was given the region by the Ottomans. Saladin held it at the end of the Crusades, after he took it from the Fatmids in 1187, who took it from the Seljuk Empire in 1098. The Fatmids held it for a time before the Seljuk Empire, after they took it from the Abbasid Caliphate in 878, who had taken it from the Umayyad Caliphate in 750. The Rashidun Caliphate, the legacy of none other than the son in law and nephew of the Prophet controlled the region until it passed to the Umayyad. The Byzantines owned the region until 628, having taken it from the Sassanids, who taken it from the Palmyrene Empire, who had been given the region by Constantine. The Eastern Roman Empire had acquired the region with the fall of the west under Rome, who held the area and had broken it up into five regions. Before the Romans, the area known as Palestine had been kicked around and passed back and forth by nearly every ancient kingdom and empire in the area from before it was conquered by Alexander the Great. Before Alexander, it was held by Egypt, Assyria, Persia, Babylonia, Judah, and Israel. Biblically speaking, before Israel moved in, it was a loose arrangement of local cities that were held by a variety of tribal groups.

Was Osama bin Laden a tyrant?
He controlled and influenced a lot of young deprived people around the globe, and used the anger rightfully gathered from Western interference in the Middle East and elsewhere in the world as a catalyst to expand his own power and commit horrendous acts, including 9/11 and the US Embassy bombings in East Africa (which killed hundreds of innocent Kenyans and Tanzanians), and assist in genocide against the Persian minority in Afghanistan, as well as suppress, enslave and murder women, gays, Sub-Saharan (black) Africans (many Arabs instill view them as little better than slaves), and any non-Muslim or Muslim for that matter that did not fit his ideal model of the militant Salafist Jihadist. Furthermore, his ultimate aim was to either head or help govern a caliphate that would stretch from Morocco across to India, to Bosnia in the north and down to Kenya in the south, that would then attempt to annex the rest of the world, while 2 billion people would be forced to live under conditions perhaps more zealous than those of the period of the Taliban's bloody rule of Afghanistan. If none of this makes Bin Laden a tyrant or at the very least a tyrant-in-waiting, then Stalin and Hitler must be the most misunderstood men on Earth.

The first Islamic Caliphate was headed by the Prophet's disciples as a continuation of the government established by him.
Did the umayyads the established a caliphate in Spain?
Yes and No. The First Ummayyad Caliphate (661-750 C.E.) had been established in Damascus and expanded all the way from Spain to Northwestern India. However, an uprising by the Abbassids led to the fall of this Caliphate and the rising of the Abbassid Caliphate in its place. The Abbassids had killed the last Damascus Caliph, Marwan II, and slaughtered every member of the Umayyad family they could find. One final Umayyad prince, Abd el-Rahman I, escaped and established an emirate in Spain separate from the Abbassids and made Cordoba his capital-in-exile. He then withstood attempts by the Abbassids for control of Spain. By 929 C.E. the Abbassid Caliphate was weakening substantially, so the current Ummayad Emir declared that the Umayyad Emirate of Andalucia (Southern Spain) would become the Second Umayyad Caliphate. This lasted until 1038 C.E., when the last Umayyad caliph died heirless. During the 300 or so years (750 C.E.-1038 C.E.) of the Umayyad Emirate/Caliphate in Spain, the state was constantly fending off Spanish Reconquista Knights.
