No, because you semi-quoted Churchill as stating verbatim:
'JEWS BELONG IN PALESTINE BY THEIR RIGHTS, NOT THEIR SUFFERINGS' - Churchill.
Your source states verbatim:
quote:
But there, at least, it was clear that the Jewish community was "in Palestine as of right and not on sufferance," as Winston Churchill underscored at the time.
Even if this was a direct quote instead of a paraphrase, it is both incomplete and not stating exactly the same concept.
Notice the difference between "Jews belong in Palestine by their rights, not on sufferings" and "the Jewish community was 'in Palestine as of right, not on sufferance.'" The first implies support due to some universal rule concerning Jewish rights while the second implies allowing the Jewish community to remain in Palestine unmolested because it is the right thing to do, presumably based upon their long history of being in the area.
'Belong' does not mean 'in.' What are 'rights' is not what is 'right.' What is 'suffering' is not 'sufferance.' Also, and perhaps most importantly, the 'Jewish community' already in Palestine is not the same as all Jews worldwide. Do you need a dictionary?
You misquoted, and conflated two sentences with two different meanings. Whether this is done with intent to deceive is open to conjecture.
