1947 - The 1947 Partition Plan

In perspective
When you look at the plan, one thing becomes abundantly clear: The Arab world made a grave mistake by rejecting the 1947 partition. Their rejection and subsequent wars against Israel created a complicated situation because:
- Israel was victorious in all wars waged against it (except for the recent October 7th war which in our opinion is the first war where Israel actually lost a war before it even began).
- Israel lost many lives, and conquered lands beyond what was originally planned by the UN
- Israel assumed those lands (as often happens when you win a war), and those lands have been developed both agriculturally and with many Israeli cities and towns.
