History of the ConflictFor around 100 years now the Middle-East
has had violent relationshipsNatural resourcesOilNeed for Jewish Homeland
History ContinuedIn the 1920's the British gained power and control in the Middle
East, which when put with the Jewish immigration to Palestine created increasing tension over time. Because of the spoils and winnings of WWI, tensions increased leaving havoc in the Middle East. After WWII the United Nations decided to split up the land of Palestine into two states, which gave the Jews, the smaller faction, the larger amount of land. "The State of Israel was proclaimed on May 14 1948, but the Arab states rejected the partition of Palestine and the existence of Israel. The armies of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Trans-Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Egypt attacked but were defeated by the Israeli army." In conclusion, the Jewish people had gained so much land that over the next fifty years we have had what is formally known as the Israeli- Palestinian conflict, where many countries (mainly Palestine) have been attacking Israel in an attempt to gain back the land that they believe is rightfully theirs.
