Until 1917, Palestine was a term of historical geography. The British in 1917 assumed the administration of the
British Mandate of Palestine, with the administration of which they were
charged by the League of Nations in 1923. In 1947 the General Assembly of the United Nations approved a plan to partition Palestine into a Jewish State of Israel and an Arab State of Palestine, effective in 1948. Upon the proclamation of the State of Israel, the First Israeli-Arab War broke out. Acting partially upon the advice of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and other Arab leaders, partially in response to Israeli acts of terror (Deir Yassin), a significant number of Palestinians left the country and moved into an exile, which in contrast to the expectations of many was not temporary. The remainder of the Palestinian population was split into two, an Palestinian-Arab minority within the new state of Israel, and the Palestinian population in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, (from 1948 to 1967 under the administration of Jordan, and in the Gaza Strip, from 1948 to 1967 administrated by Egypt. For the history of Israel click Israel. Neither Israel's Arab neighbours, nor most Palestinians were willing to accept the political tatus quo. In 1964 the PLO was founded. In 1967 Israel was victorious in the Six Days War and proceeded to occupy the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. When King Hussein of Jordan in 1988 ceded Jordan's claim on the West Bank, the PLO / Palestinian National Authority became the partner with whom Israel had to negotiate. Also in 1988, Yasir Arafat, head to the PLO, recognized Israel's right to exist. Since, repeated attempts have been made to bring about a negotiated solution to the conflict, with only partial successes. In September 2005 Israel withdrew from the Gaza Strip Historical Atlas, Palestine Page Students' Paper : Choi, Jungyun, The Political Structure of the Continuation of the Israeli-Palestine Conflict (2008) |
