He was the legal ruler of his state. The people accepted his rule and there was no rebellion against his rule.
About the treaties you presented. All the treaties were signed between the colonial powers and defeated Turks. The local arabs had no say in those treaties or agreements which wasn't the case in Khan of kalat accession to Pakistan. As I said. The whole population of kalat state was with its ruler and its decision to join Pakistan. It wasn't a treaty between a foreign power and a party which had been defeated recently in a war.
They were brought. You can call it emigration. I call it importing them from all over the world and imposing on the heads of poor arab peasants. A unique case in the human history.
No matter how much mass immigration is allowed, I doubt the immigrants would become the rulers of France and start killings the locals like we see in Israel-Palestine case.
Your comments are worth nothing, unless you can show proof that his position is not based
on military power of a group of cronies. That he consider himself legal, I have no doubt.
A king is only legal, if he is elected, and legality drops over time.
That his rule was not rebeled against, does not mean that its legal.
An illegal Khan can still be good enough that no rebellion occurs,
but key is if the citizens have been given a choice.
Any decision to join Pakistan would only have validity after a referendum with a qualified majority.
If the whole population was behind, it why:
"Shortly after
Pakistan's creation in 1947, the
Pakistan Army had to subdue insurgents based in
Kalat who rejected the King of Kalat's decision to accede to Pakistan."
"They were brought" implies that some external party did this, which is false.
What happened was that the Jews made a collective decision to move to the land of Israel,
organized themselves and got on with it.
This has happened many times in the history, Helvetii, Vandals, Mongols, Americans.
Whether it is legal or not is based on what laws are in place, and I dare you
to show any laws that were broken by immigration during the Ottoman Era
and early British Mandate.
Whether You think it is fair is a completely different matter.
It is not fair in some peoples opinion, that rich people can buy more than the poor.
That is how the world works.
It is the same situation when a godforsaken little village gets fashionable.
Some locals will sell off, making a profit, and prises will rise so other locals cannot afford
to remain.
If you want a good example of a takeover, just look at Kosovo.
Now ruled by immigrating Albanians.
Istanbul/Konstantinopel is no longer Greek.
