sqgl,

Jews were given the land

Well… kind of, but not really, not exactly that land, and the result wasn’t truly agreed upon by anyone.

They were given the land by UN at the start of the partition. I want discussing whether it was just.

the 6 day war

That’s in 1967.

Yep, just as I said.

Israel wasn’t “given” any land there

Didn’t say it was dune in 1967. It was given by UN straight after WW2. I was being as brief as possible.

It seems we agree on everything except the following. Hopefully you can clarify for me please…

1948 - A day before Britain’s retreat, Israel claims all the land

Not explicitly AFAIK. This is my understanding…

Arabs were not OK with the UN partition but Jews were. Jews therefore understood that would mean Arabs would annul the partition as soon as the Brits exited so they declared independence from the day of the exit but I cannot find any borders mentioned. Then the Arabs really did attack.

Do you know of any borders mentioned by Jews then? Did they state “we want to be observed of the Arab partitions?” Certainly that is how it ended up but was that the plan on Independence Day? Wikipedia is vague.
