May recommend. The UN does not have the right to award an area to people to create a country, it can only make recommendations and then may refer it to the security council, They did in this case but the Jewish people created the state of Israel before anything had been decided by said security council, By its charter it could not do what you claim it does and it says it multiple times it can only recommend,
That's what the UN charter says and multiple people who where members of the UN at that time restated it.
