Most of the legwork in creating the State of Israel was done by Jews who would later become the "Founding Fathers of Israel", such as Weizmann, Ben Gurion, Sharett, Eban, Ben Yehuda, and Begin.
In terms of international support, the Soviet Union was probably the largest early contributor the creation of the State of Israel. The Soviet Union persuaded many nations, including the Eastern bloc to Support the United Nations Resolution 181. Also the majority of arms used in the Arab-Israeli War of 1948-9 by Israeli Soldiers were Soviet weapons funneled through Czechoslovakia. Britain and the United States, Israel's current major allies, both placed a weapons embargo on the overall region. The Soviet Union withdrew support for Israel in 1953 and began supporting the Arab countries after that point, but without Soviet assistance from 1947-1953, Israel may not have had the necessary votes at the United Nations and sufficient weaponry to defend itself.
