Answer 2

UN Partition Plan:

"The United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine or United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181 was a plan approved by the United Nations on November 29, 1947 to terminate the British Mandate of Palestine by August 1, 1948 and recommend the creation of two states, one Jewish and one Arab, in Palestine. The plan was approved by the United Nations General Assembly by 33 votes to 13, with 10 abstentions."

"After 1945 the United Kingdom became embroiled in an increasingly violent conflict with the Jews.[47] In 1947, the British government withdrew from commitment to the Mandate of Palestine, stating it was unable to arrive at a solution acceptable to both Arabs and Jews.[48] The newly-created United Nations approved the UN Partition Plan (United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181) on November 29, 1947, dividing the country into two states, one Arab and one Jewish. Jerusalem was to be designated an international city – a corpus separatum – administered by the UN to avoid conflict over its status.[49] The Jewish community accepted the plan,[50] but the Arab League and Arab Higher Committee rejected it.[51]"

"Regardless, the State of Israel was proclaimed on May 14, 1948, one day before the expiry of the British Mandate for Palestine.[52] Not long after, five Arab countries – Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Iraq – attacked Israel, launching the 1948 Arab-Israeli War,[52] although conflict between the Jews and Arabs of Palestine started earlier. After a year of fighting, a ceasefire was declared and temporary borders, known as the Green Line, were established. Jordan annexed what became known as the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and Egypt took control of the Gaza Strip. Israel was admitted as a member of the United Nations on May 11, 1949.[53] During the war 711,000 Arabs, according to UN estimates, or about 80% of the previous Arab population, fled the country.[54] The fate of the Palestinian refugees today is a major point of contention in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.[55][56]"

Answer 5

they decided to partition the land in 1/2, although the Jewish community was small, they were granted a giant portion.

after the land was divided the "Israelis" went to war with their Arab "neighbors", and captured the remaining land of what is so to become Israel. in 1967 they captured the West Bank, Gaza Strip, and Golan Heights. Although this is illegal, they argue that theyre not doing anything wrong!
