What did Israeli keep in the First Arab-Israeli war?
About 70% of the area designated for Jewish administration under the 1947 UN partition plan. After the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9, Israel controlled over 98% of the territory it was accorded by the UN Partition Plan and exercised control of 78% of the territory of the former Mandate of Palestine (as opposed to the 56% percent that Israel was accorded in the UN Partition Plan).
Did the United Kingdom play a role in the formation of Israel?
Yes, in 1947
How did the area of Palestine officially become Israel?
In terms of international law, the 78% of Mandatory Palestine which is now the State of Israel was legally acquired. Israel accepted UNGA Resolution 181 and its border defense against Arab aggression to counter international laws that they did not like. As a result, the acquisition in the 1947-1949 of war was not an illegal act since self-defense is not a criminal act unless it is grossly disproportionate to the attack and the war was a relatively balanced affair as well as being resolved at the moment that each Arab state was willing to engage in an armistice. Just to clarify, this means that the 1949 borders of Israel belong to Israel. As for the remaining Palestinian areas that were acquired in 1967, the situation becomes murkier, but as concerns the West Bank, Jordan attacked Israel first and Israel retaliated. Again the self-defense doctrine comes to the fore. Israel would have the rights to those territories acquired in self-defense. However, Israel was willing to concede some of those rights pursuant to a final, lasting peace with its neighbors, which is all that UN Resolution 242 discusses. Those states that have made peace with Israel since 1967 (Egypt and Jordan) have seen the return of territory (in Egypt's case) or the cession of the rights to occupied territory with tertiary partners (Jordan to the Palestinian Authority). It should also be noted that while 720,000 Palestinians fled the State of Israel in 1947-1949, 850,000 Jews fled from Arab States from 1949-1955. More Jews fled their homes than Arabs fled theirs.
