What was the impact of the Zionists on Palestine?

Just before the UN voted to partition Palestine in November 1947, Ben-Gurion secretly mobilised Jewish groups inside and outside Palestine and dispatched them to Europe to purchase massive quantities of arms for the next phase: a military plan to conquer as many Palestinian villages and to expel their inhabitants.

Their plan was called Plan D better known as Plan Dalet, (Dalet being the fourth letter in the Hebrew alphabet) which was launched nearly six weeks prior to the end of the British Mandate in Palestine. It is worth noting that Plan D had been preceeded by Plan A (February 1945), Plan B (May 1947) and Plan C (November 1947). There is no mistaking their intention: the ethnic cleansing of Palestine.

Plan Dalet and The Nakba - 1948

Bogus link. Plan D was strictly defensive in nature designed to halt Arab aggression.
Such stunts are why you have zero reputational points even after 2 years.

The Arabs are ethnic cleansers.

US Department of State, Office of the Historian: The Arab-Israeli War of 1948
The Arab-Israeli War of 1948 broke out when five Arab nations invaded territory in the former Palestinian mandate immediately following the announcement of the independence of the state of Israel on May 14, 1948.

Fighting began with attacks by irregular bands of Palestinian Arabs attached to local units of the Arab Liberation Army composed of volunteers from Palestine and neighboring Arab countries. These groups launched their attacks against Jewish cities, settlements, and armed forces.

The goal of the Arabs was initially to block the Partition Resolution and to prevent the establishment of the Jewish state.

After Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948, the fighting intensified with other Arab forces joining the Palestinian Arabs in attacking territory in the former Palestinian mandate. On the eve of May 14, the Arabs launched an air attack on Tel Aviv, which the Israelis resisted. This action was followed by the invasion of the former Palestinian mandate by Arab armies from Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Egypt. Saudi Arabia sent a formation that fought under the Egyptian command.

Yes, the Palestinians did defend themselves from the foreign takeover of their country.

Of the 37 people who signed Israel's declaration of independence, only one was born in Palestine and he was the son of immigrants.

Israel was created inside Palestine by foreign military force against the wishes of virtually all of Palestine's Muslim, Christian, and Jewish native inhabitants.

Israel stays inside Palestine by military force.

Israel is a foreign military occupation of Palestine.
 
A "Palestinian" can mean a person who is born in the geographical area known prior to 1918 as "Palestine", or a former citizen of the British Mandate territory called Palestine, or an institution related to either of these. Using this definition, both Palestinian Arabs and Palestinian Jews were called "Palestinians".

Palestininas were invented in the mid-20th century and originate from Arabia.

Jews have existed for 4000 years and established sovereignty over Israel 3000 years ago.

In the banks of the Nile in southern Egypt in 1896, British archaeologisit Flinders Petrie unearthed one of the most important discoveries in biblical archaeology known as the Merneptah Stele. Merneptah's stele announces the entrance on the world stage of a People named Israel.

The Merneptah Stele is powerful evidence that a People called the Israelites are living in Canaan over 3000 years ago

Dr. Donald Redford, Egyptologist and archaeologist: The Merneptah Stele is priceless evidence for the presence of an ethnical group called Israel in Canaan.

Palestine and Palestinians were invented after WW I.
Cambridge University Press
In Ottoman times, no political entity called Palestine existed. After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire at the end of the First World War, European boundary makers began to take greater interest in defining territorial limits for Palestine. Only since the 1920s has Palestine had formally delimited boundaries, though these have remained subject to repeated change and a source of bitter dispute.

Jews and Israel existed over 3000 years ago.

In archaeological terms The Houses of Ancient Israel: Domestic, Royal, Divine focuses on the Iron Age (1200-586 B.C.E.). Iron I (1200-1000 B.C.E.) represents the premonarchical period. Iron II (1000-586 B.C.E.) was the time of kings. Uniting the tribal coalitions of Israel and Judah in the tenth century B.C.E., David and Solomon ruled over an expanding realm. After Solomon's death (c. 930 B.C.E.) Israel and Judah separated into two kingdoms.

Presumably, Christians, birdbrain.

Jews existed 1000 years in Israel before Christ was born.

Christians have been living there for a couple thousand years?

Jews lived in Israel 1000 years before Christ was born.

Jews lived in Israel 2000 years before any Arab civilization even existed in Arabia and before Mahomet was born.

Jews lived in Israel 3000 years before Palestinians were invented in the mid-20th century.

Christians who came to exist 1000+ years after Jews established their civilization in Israel.

Weren't those Christians converts from the existing population either Jews or Pagans?

Er, yah. You figured this out all by yourself or your mommy told you? :clap2:

The Jewish civilization was established 1000 years before Christ was born and 2000 years before Mahomet.

There existence pre dates Christianity.
