Some of the more knowledgable might correct me, but I thought there never has been a real state of Palestine, it's just the name of a region. The modern Isreal and Palestine states were to be created at the same time (1948), but the Arab states immediately attacked Isreal. The outcome of that war was that the area that was to be the Palestinian state was divided up between Syria, Jordan, and Egypt. So that would be like someone giving part of the US to Mexico, and the US sending terrorists and suicide bombers into Canada to try to completely wipe our northern neighbors from the map, with the help of Mexico.
edit: after rereading, I think it would be more like the UN creating Canada and the US, then Mexico taking over the US, then Mexico using the absence of a United States, and the need for the United States as an excuse to try to destroy Canada.
