Original Note:
Context needed: The 1941 visa listing Ben-Gurion as a "Palestinian citizen" reflects the British Mandate (1920-48), a territory under British rule, not a sovereign Palestinian state. The term indicated residency applying to all (Jews, Arabs), not nationality. https://avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century/palmanda.asp https://www.thecollector.com/british-controlled-mandatory-palestine/ https://ktalegal.com/british-mandate-of-palestine-mandate-passports/ https://israeled.org/mandate-palestine/
