ISRAEL is a modern state that was created in 1948 by Jews in Palestine.
In 1948, Jews didn't have a country, so they invaded Palestine, killed many Palestinians, and forced many out. The Jews then changed the name of Palestine to Israel.
It's the Arabian country that is named by all Arabs as Palestine,however it was occupied in 1948 by the Jews who named it Israel.
they split Arabs and Jews land, Palestine in half.

1948 Zionist never attacked Palestine; there were always Zionistic Jews in Israel. Palestine is just a name the British made up for the area; Zionist obviously couldn't have attacked it in 1948. Israel declared independence and most of the Arab countries attacked it.
A:Reliable figures for any one year are hard to come by, but Arnold Blumberg (The History of Israel) says there were 70,000 Jews in Palestine in 1914, and 600,000 by the end of 1947. For historical reasons, the figure for 1940 would be closer to the 1914 count. Answer 2In addition to those numbers, we know that the amount of Jews in Mandatory Palestine in 1931 was 175,000 according to Sergio della Pergola. If I had to guess what the Jewish population was in Palestine in 1940, I agree with Answer 1 in saying that it would be less than 335,000 (halfway between 70,000 and 600,000). My guess would be around 230,000-250,000.
The Exile of Jews from palestine is known as the Diaspora
Wait a second. Help me out here, and please take it slowly, because sometimes I get confused . . . If Palestine was declared a nation for Jews, and the Jewish nation has been a UN member for 62 years, then exactly what country are Erakat and Abbas and Ashrawhi trying so hard to get admitted to the UN now ?
The reason is very simple: Britain defeated the German attempt to invade it!
Because Palestine keeps attacking the Jews.
It's the Arabian country Palestine, which is for Arabs (regardless of their religions). It's claimed by Jews who occupied it in 1948 & named it Israel.
