| | 1948 Arab-Israeli War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Between November 30, 1947 and February 1, 1948 427 Arabs, 381 Jews and 46 British were killed and 1,035 Arabs, 725 Jews and 135 British were wounded. | | | The humiliation of the Arab armies at having been routed by the Jewish forces, together with the rising nationalist frenzy in Arab nations, contributed to rising hatred for the Jews living in Arab lands. | | | In an official cablegram from the Secretary-General of the League of Arab States to the UN Secretary-General on May 15, 1948, the Arab states publically proclaimed their aim of creating a "United State of Palestine" in place of the Jewish and Arab, two-state, UN Plan. |

| | Most of the Arab fighters were non-Palestinians led by Fawzi al-Qawuqji and funded by the Arab League which was bent on thwarting the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine. | | | Arab unity, the notion of the single Arab umma ("nation"), had been a myth from the beginning. | | | On March 10, 1948, the Jewish defense force Haganah issued "Plan D ("Dalet") which it claimed constituted a plan for the defense of the newly emerging state of Israel, but which Palestinians claimed laid out the concrete steps of the Zionist plan to subject Palestine to an ethnic cleansing of Arabs. |

| | The Israelis claimed that it was only a matter of time before they would be attacked by the Arabs,.... | | | We all know that the 1948 war and consequent Jewish rape of Palestine, was actually precipitated by the action of one Mohammed Ali in the year 731 AD, when he slapped a Jew on the wrist in a very demeaning way. | | | No one, who has studied the 1948 war, believes the Israeli version, yet it is still fed to the general public, and particularly in the United States, people actually believe it. |

| | The first communiqué issued by the Arab league stated that "the Arabs are dispatching their armies to protect the 400,000 Arabs who live in areas given to the Jews according the partition plan." So here we find a tacit recognition of partition. | | | Egypt's bonds with the Arab world were becoming stronger, a movement exemplified by the signing of the Arab League charter in 1945. | | | All the Arab countries were mobilised in the same way, but mobilisation is one thing and winning a war is an all together different matter. |

| | Young Warrior, 1948 Arab Israeli War |
| | The Arabs kept saying they were going to kill all the Jews, and I believed they meant it. | | | It was to strike Arab terrorist groups in their own bases, and to be the forward echelon in attacks on British radar stations. | | | All the other Israelis ran for the slit trenches we had dug but I was the squad anti-aircraft gunner so I ran to my jeep and unsheathed the machine gun and waited for the order to fire. |

| | The 1948–49 War reflected the opposition of the Arab states to the formation of the Jewish state of Israel in what they considered to be Arab territory. | | | In addition, about 400,000 Palestinian Arabs had fled from Israel and were settled in refugee camps near Israel's border; their status became a volatile factor in Arab-Israeli relations. | | | As independence was declared, Arab forces from Egypt, Syria, Transjordan (later Jordan), Lebanon, and Iraq invaded Israel. |

| | The so-called "Palestinian" Arabs were simply then, as they are now, Arabs no different culturally, historically or ethnically from other Arabs living in any of the 24 Arab countries from which they emigrated. | | | After the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, their goal became two-tracked: Either (1) destroy Israel outright (the same pre-1967 goal) or (2) the creation of an Arab-Palestinian state to be used as a launching pad from which to destroy Israel. | | | These pre-Israel Zionists (and later, Israelis) had tried to develop peacefully for the dual benefit of Jews and Arabs in the land. |
