Israel and Palestine history of the conflict

Background of many years of opposition

Throughout the long history of Jews and Arabs coexisted peacefully in Palestine, which during the Ottoman Empire was part of the Syrian state. Indigenous people in the region were Arabs, but in the early twentieth century, the Jewish part of the population began a slow but steady increase. The situation changed radically after the First world war (1918), when Britain received a mandate to govern the territory of Palestine and was able to pursue its policy in these lands.

Zionism and the Balfour Declaration

Began extensive colonization by Jews of Palestinian lands. This was accompanied by the propaganda of the Jewish national ideology-Zionism, which provided for the return of the Jewish people to their homeland-Israel. Evidence of this process is the so-called Balfour Declaration. It is a letter to the leader of the Zionist movement by the British Minister Balfour, which was written in 1917. The Letter justified the territorial claims of the Jews to Palestine. The Declaration has had a significant public resonance, it actually started the conflict.

Israel and Palestine history of the conflict, briefly

The Deepening conflict in the 20-40-ies of XX century

In the 20-ies of the last century the Zionists began to strengthen their position, having a military Association "Hagana", and in 1935 a new, more extremist organization called “the Irgun Zvi Leumi”. But the radical actions of the Jews have not been solved, the oppression of the Palestinian Arabs was carried out peacefully.

After coming to power of the Nazis and the outbreak of the Second world war the number of Jews in Palestine began to increase sharply due to their emigration from Europe. In 1938 in the Palestinian lands, there were about 420 thousand Jews, which is two times more than in 1932. the Ultimate goal of the resettlement of the Jews saw in the full conquest of Palestine and the creation of the state of the Jews. This is evidenced by the fact that after the war, in 1947, the number of Jews in Palestine has increased by 200 thousand, and has become already 620 thousand.

The plan of the UN Committee after a long discussion, was adopted in November 1947. The plan received strong international recognition, it was approved by both the US and the Soviet Union, and Israel and Palestine. The history of the conflict, as all hoped, was to come to the end.

Terms of the UN resolution on settlement of the conflict

According to the UN resolution of 29 November 1947, the territory of Palestine was divided into two independent States-Arab (the area of 11 thousand sq km) and Jewish (area 14 sq km). Separately, as planned, was created by the international zone, on the territory of the city of Jerusalem. By the beginning of August, 1948 English colonists, the plan was to leave the territory of Palestine.

But as soon as the Jewish state was proclaimed, and the Prime Minister, Ben Gurion, the radical Zionists, who did not recognize the independence of the Arab portions of Palestinian land in may 1948 began fighting.

Israel and Palestine history of the conflict of Nations

Some were from countries such as Israel and Palestine history of the conflict? What started the conflict? Try to give this question a detailed answer. The Declaration of independence of Israel was veryhigh-profile and controversial international event. Very much the Arab-Muslim countries have not recognized the state of Israel declared “Jihad” (the Holy war against the infidels). A member of the Arab League, which fought against Israel were part of Jordan, Lebanon, Yemen, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Thus began the active fighting in the center of what was Israel and Palestine. The history of the conflict of peoples forced back to the beginning of the tragic events of the war about 300 thousand Palestinian Arabs to flee their native lands.

The army of the Arab League was well organized and consisted of about 40 thousand soldiers, while Israel had only 30 thousand troops Commander-in-chief of the Arab League, was appointed the king of Jordan. It should be noted that the UN called on the parties to peace, and even developed a peace plan, but both sides rejected it.

At first the fighting in Palestine, the advantage belonged to the Arab League countries, but in the summer of 1948 the situation changed dramatically. The Jewish forces went on the offensive and for ten days repulsed the onslaught of the Arabs. And in 1949 Israel decisive blow pushed the enemy to the borders of Palestine, capturing, thus, its entire territory.

Israel and Palestine history of the conflict who is to blame

The Mass emigration of peoples

During the conquest by the Jews of Palestinian lands were expelled about a million Arabs. They emigrated to neighboring Muslim countries. The reverse process was the emigration of Jews from the Arab League to Israel. Thus ended the first military clash. Such was that of countries such as Israel and Palestine history of the conflict. Who is to blame for the numerous victims, is difficult to judge, as both parties were interested in a military solution to the conflict.

Modern relations of States

How you live now Israel and Palestine? The history of the conflict over what? The question unanswered, as the conflict is not settled in our day. Clashes between the States continued for the whole century. This is evidenced by such conflicts as the Sinai (1956) and six day (1967) war. Thus, suddenly appeared and for a long time to develop the conflict of Israel and Palestine.

Israel and Palestine history of the conflict than has ended

It Should be noted that progress towards peace was still. An example of this can be the negotiations that took place in Oslo in 1993. Between the PLO and Israel signed an agreement on the introduction in Gaza strip of the system of local self-government. On the basis of these agreements, in the following year, 1994, was based Palestinian national authority, which in 2013 officially was renamed to the State of Palestine. The creation of the state did not bring long-awaited peace, the conflict between Arabs and Jews is far from being resolved, as its roots are very deep and controversial.
