 History of Israel
Even the use of the term 'Israel' as a political term has its problems, and to write a 'history of Israel' as the history of an ethnic entity is simply too question-begging, as Keith Whitelam has demonstrated in his The Invention of Ancient Israel: The Silencing of Palestinian History.
The subject of Whitelam’s book is that the history of the ancient peoples of Palestine has been silenced in favour of an exclusive interest in Israel.
Whitelam has written a very brave – but also a very politically correct – book, timely according with the establishment in Palestine of the first institutions of a Palestinian state”.

 History of Israel: 1947 UN Partition Proposal
By May 1948, when the Jews (33%) unilaterally declared "the state of Israel", 300,000 Palestinians had already been ethnically cleansed (forced from their homes or had fled the fighting) by the Zionists and the Zionists had stolen a region well beyond the area of the original Jewish State that was proposed by the UN.

In the months before Israel was declared, the Zionists had seized land beyond the proposed Jewish State.
