Uhm... At least 32% of those living there would probably beg to differ.[1] (Or 55%, if you look at the actual partition plan.[2])

In any case most of the rest of the region was carved up by the occupying European powers in much the same way, including the creation of Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, and Iraq.
