Answer to Question 1

Although the mandate system and colonization occurred after WWI in the Middle East, primarily between Britain and France, it was after the end of WWII that the state of Israel was created. Jewish immigration to the Palestinian Territory began before the start of WWII, and so began the increased violence against Jews in this region. After WWII the Palestinian Territory was handed over to the United Nations, and another influx of Jewish immigrants occurred. The UN developed the Special Committee on Palestine to address the problem and the solution was a National Jewish Homeland and an Arab Palestinian State. This pitted the Arabs against the Jews. In 1948, Israel declared itself an independent state, which led to a full-scale war. Israel has retained the majority of land formerly considered Palestine, leaving only small areas under Arab Palestinian control. The Arab position is that the establishment of a Jewish state within Palestine is against international law; so the fighting continues with intermittent peace.

Possible solutions will vary, but grading and answers should be based on instructor's discretion.
