The Funding of the Zionist Movement
In the 1910s and in 1920s the Zionist Movement started a fundraiser. They want to purchase land from the British to start their Jewish state. It was a steady growth, but the Arabs started to revolt. That means the Arab Palestine formed a nationalism movement to get them out. -
Increased Population

United Nations' Supervision
Israel's supervision is given to the United Nations. Massive crowds of Jews came to Israel to be welcomed. During this time the UN had decided to make one state Israel, the other one Arab. The Palestinians rejected it and the Jews welcomed it. -
Israel an idea to a nation!
The idea from Zionists has become true. Nowhere to settle, the UN had decided the area that the British control should become the homeland of the Jews. The Jews agreed, but the Palestinians said no! Will Israel's ideology become true? -

The Israel- Arab conflict has ended
The sounding Arab nations signed peace treaties. But, Israel had to give land back to those countries to promise peace through the land. The PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization) calmed down to a halt for now. Now, the cease fire lines need to be made.
