REVIEW
The Israeli War of Independence, 1948
Background to the war:
Holocaust and persecution of Jews in Europe leads to many of them leaving to Israel
Arab League is formed in 1945 to protest the Balfour Declaration
France gives Syria and Lebanon independence in 1946
British fall out of favour with the Jews under the guidance of the Zionist movement (A homeland had not been created yet)
The Brits hand the problem over to the UN in 1947
1947 the UN suggests a partition.
Jews are happy with this the Arabs are angry
Arab radicals had attacked Jews throughout 1947
The Arab League had rumours of attacking the Jews once the Brits left.
The day the mandate ends the Jews under David Ben-Gurion attack the Arab League countries
The Jews win and increase their territory from the parition including the Negev
Desert
Many Palestinians became refugees
Palestinians begin terrorist attacks within Israel
