The Israel Palestine Conflict began in between the 1920s and 1940s,when the number of Jews arriving in Palestine grew, with many fleeing from persecution in Europe and seeking a homeland after the Holocaust of World War Two.
Violence between Jews and Arabs, and against British rule, also grew.
In 1947, the UN voted for Palestine to be split into separate Jewish and Arab states, with Jerusalem becoming an international city.
That plan was accepted by Jewish leaders but rejected by the Arab side and never implemented.
In 1948, unable to solve the problem, British rulers left and Jewish leaders declared the creation of the state of Israel.
Many Palestinians objected and a war followed. Troops from neighbouring Arab countries invaded.
Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians fled or were forced out of their homes in what they call Al-Nakba, or the “Catastrophe”.
By the time the fighting ended in a ceasefire the following year, Israel controlled most of the territory.
In 1993-95 a “two-state solution ” was idealised but the two communities didn’t arrive at consensus.
According to me , the two communities should’ve accepted the two state solution because after so many years of war and conflict a solution came and ignoring it gives off the idea that Israelis are purposefully using this conflict to occupy more area on the map .
