Why do some people wrongly believe Modern Israel was "created" by the United Nations? - Robert - 10-28-2024
Why do some people wrongly believe Modern Israel was "created" by the United Nations?
Israel was not Re-established by the United Nations.
Israel was not “created”; modern Israel is Re-established within the Jewish ancestral-homeland as can be seen by looking at a map of the Jewish Hasmonean kingdom; there has never been any indigenous “Palestine” / Arab sovereign state in the land of Israel.
The last indigenous sovereign state in the land prior to modern Israel, was the post-Biblical Jewish Hasmonean Kingdom (including the "West Bank" (land of the previous Jewish Kingdoms of Judah and Samaria), Gaza, and Golan Heights), with its capital of (what is now "East") Jerusalem; between 110 BCE / 754 BH and 63 BCE / 706 BH:

People often allege that following the Second World War the Allies Re-established Israel:
The Allies did NOT Re-establish Israel.
People often allege land was "given" to the Jews to Re-establish Israel:
NO land was given to the Jews.
Israel was NOT Re-established due to the Holocaust, but because the land of Israel is the ancestral-homeland of the Jewish people.
In 1947 the United Nations proposed a Partition Plan (two-state solution) under resolution 181. While the Jewish Community accepted the Plan, it requires more than one party to constitute any agreement. The Palestinian Arab response was to start a civil war to take ALL the land and ethnically-cleanse or murder the Jews from the Jews ancestral-homeland of Israel.
Israel was Re-established in 1948 following the United Nations Partition Plan.
Why is the word "following" an accurate description?
> Because the U.N. in proposing the Partition Plan approved the Re-establishment of Israel; approved Jewish self-determination within the Jewish people's ancestral-homeland of Israel; and approval of an Arab state (for which there was and is, neither precedent nor justification) within the land of Israel).
> Because Israel's Re-establishment followed (in point of time) that U.N. Partition Plan.
The U.N. Partition Plan then, acted as a catalyst, causing the Palestinian Arabs to react as they typically do, with violence, by their violent-rejection of the U.N. Partition Plan, attacking the Jews, and leaving the Jewish Community with no choice but to defend themselves, resulting in defense capable of Re-establishing Israel.
