Shortly after WW2 the UN granted a mandate for a state of Israel and the Israelis declared independence. - Dope

-----------------

Worth noting the UN Plan also called for the creation of a Palestinian State. The Israeli's accepted the plan basically agreeing to live peacefully next to a sovereign Palestine. OTOH, the Palestinians rejected the Plan and soon after helped launch the six day war where they and the rest of the sneaky Arabs got the butt kicked and were driven off the land that would have been Palestine. Over the years, Israel has given back some (most?) of that land in various land for peace deals,. deals that the Palestinians inevitably did not honor.
