How was Israel formed?

According to Biblical records, the nation of Israel takes its name from one of its ancestors, Israel (a.k.a. Jacob), son of Isaac, son of Abraham. The family groups of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were essentially nomadic people in the land in and around the area now known as Israel beginning about 1900 years BC. Jacob's descendants lived in Egypt for many years, but returned to the area to stay about 1400 BC (I expect there is some variation in the computed dates). Despite being conquered and dominated by several empires along the way, some descendants of Jacob have occupied parts of the region pretty much ever since.

The current boundaries of the nation of Israel were mostly established after wars (just like most every other country) in the mid 20th century (much more recently than most).

According to http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/timeline_of_united_nations_actio.htm "From 1920 to 1947, Palestinians and Jews had been clashing in British governed Palestine. In 1947, Britain asked the UN to take over."

On May 14, 1948 the Jewish inhabitants proclaimed a "Declaration of Independence" immediately following the expiration of a British mandate for Palestine. On the same date, the USA provisionally recognized the new state of Israel. http://www.trumanlibrary.org/photos/israel.jpg

On May 15, 1948, "British leave Palestine; Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan, Saudi Arabia declared war on Israel. Egyptian, Syrian and Jordanian invasion began." ( http://www.mideastweb.org/timeline.htm ) Israel survived the invasions and ensuing war and won additional territory.

A permanent government took office in January of 1949 after elections were held.

After WWII, almost nobody wanted the Jews, so many were bundled to Palestine (which was controlled by Britain). There, they took the things they learned from the Nazis and started using them against the Arabs to create a new country with a "pure race" - except that this time the pure race would be themselves, with some Arabs retained as a slave race.

I have a suugetion, instead of conflicting with arab (Muslim), where it is surrounded by hatres (Revulsion ), the state of Israel should be established in Liverpool for example or in NewYork (another option). Simply, Israel formed by violence, butchery, Mass execution and slaughtering. If the west wanna to taste the feeling of Jews, just consider this option.

after ww2 they put all the jews there and that's when all the problems started, 1948.

The British force occupied Palestine during the first world war, 1917 to 1920: Britain put Palestine under Military rule 1920 to May 15, 1948: Britain ruled Palestine under the mandate awarded to them at the end of World War I. The government was called "government of Palestine." The mandate government was under the British crown. On November 2, 1917, the British foreign minister Arthur James Belfour with the consent of the British crown promised the Jews to give them the land of the Palestinians as a Jewish national homeland. This promise became known as the "Belfour declaration." France and Italy accepted the declaration in 1918. America accepted it in 1919. Japan accepted it in 1920. The Belfour declaration was a clear violation of the Palestinian people's right to their land and government.

Britain had a moral and legal obligation under international law to protect the people of Palestine and the Sovereign and territorial integrity of the country they occupied. With the arrogance of the victor Britain has violated every international law that gave them responsibility to protect people under occupation.

By May 15, 1948, the British mandate ended. The British force withdrew from Palestine and handed control over to the armed Jewish gangs who went on massacring Palestinian people and blowing up Palestinian homes. They changed the name of Palestine to Israel and announced the creation of a Jewish State on 77% of the land of Palestine. By the end of 1948 the Israeli Jews massacred thousands of Palestinian civilians, destroyed their homes, made 750,000 Palestinian civilians flee for safety in the neighboring countries. To this date Israel still refuses to allow these refugees and their descendents to go back to their homes and towns.

*In 1967 Israel occupied by military force the remaining 23% of the area of Palestine which puts all Palestine under Israeli Jewish control.

But on a more ancient historical note, the people that was promised in the book of the Old Testament. The Books of Mose, who sometimes are mentioned as the People of the Book who has become an "astonishment, a proverb, and a byword among all nations". In most recently times was took captive and taken into boundage by force and scattered to North America, South and Central America (and now they exist throughout the globe) in an event known as the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade. They, the True Ones, soon will be delivered back to the land of topic the land of their Fathers.

If you talk about modern-day Israel, it was formed right after World War II. After the Holocaust, big powers like the UK saw the need for the Jewish people to have their own state.
