The NEWER Official Discussion Thread for the creation of Israel, the UN and the British Mandate

[P F Tinmore]

And Israel lost the 1948 war.
The 1948 borders were created by the UN, not by Israel winning anything.

Is that why Israel held more land after the war than they did the day they declared independence?

Israel did not win the 1948 war.

It did end up occupying most of Palestine.

So, they held more land after the war than they did the day they declared independence, because they lost?

Wrong.
Israel focused on capturing the corridor to Jerusalem and failed.
So the 1948 UN partition became the official agreed upon border after the war.
Israel gained nothing by starting the war except to vacate hundreds of Arab villages inside Israel, by massacre or extortion.

Israel did end up occupying ALL of Palestine, but by illegally starting half a dozen additional wars.
Mostly the 1967 invasion of Jerusalem.

And we should also remember that occupation of land by conquest is a horrific war crime since the Geneva Conventions started in 1906.

They never reached Jerusalem?
How much land did they hold the day they declared independence?
