Summary
The preface opens the book with a commentary on the organic relationship shared between the United Nations Organization and the question of Palestine. It does so through a brief discussion of the 1948 Reparations Case, in which the International Court of Justice affirmed the international legal personality of the United Nations arising from the assassination of Count Folke Bernadotte, the United Nations Mediator for Palestine
