At the outset of this significant promise being put into action, the Jewish population in Palestine was 7%. This percentage rose to 28% of the total population after the immigration of European Jews to Palestine under British protection.
Following the conclusion of World War II, the United Nations issued a resolution in 1947 regarding the partition of Palestine between Arabs and Jews.
On May 14, 1948, Israeli leaders convened at the Tel Aviv Museum and declared the termination of the British Mandate. The establishment of the state of Israel was acknowledged by both the United States of America and the Soviet Union.
The 1948 War saw numerous Arab nations reject the perceived unjust occupation and partition of Palestine by the United States. Israel emerged victorious in several conflicts with the support of America, acquiring territories larger than those initially sanctioned by the United States.
Numerous armed and unarmed Palestinian organizations emerged with a singular demand: the liberation of their state, which they believed had been unjustly divided and occupied.
The Palestinian people face daily and systematic violations. There are over 100 thousand registered martyrs, with an uncounted number potentially twice as high. The death toll exceeds a million. These attacks affect various aspects of life, including education, healthcare, and essential supplies that are frequently disrupted. There are also violations of religious sanctities, with provocations occurring on all occasions and holidays.
Israel, contrary to its claims of seeking peace, shows no intention of granting Palestinians peace. It also doesn’t appear inclined to establish a Palestinian state adjacent to its own, as the UN suggests. The Palestinian territory is diminishing daily while areas under Israeli occupation continue to expand.
