Abstract: Questions concerning Palestine and United Nations action regarding its future governmental structure were the chief concern of the Arab League during the latter part of 1947.Although members of the Arab League had earlier cooperated with the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine, the presentation of the committee's report on September 3, 1947, brought forth a change of policy. On September 19, the League's political committee, meeting at Sófar, Lebanon, adopted a series of resolutions which denounced the UNSCOP report and threatened armed resistance if it was implemented. The committee not only inveighed against the majority recommendations, which called for a creation of independent Arab and Jewish states in Palestine, but also against the minority recommendation, which suggested a federal state with ‘parity’ between Arabs and Jews.
