Neutral Name: Arab-Israeli War of 1948
Israeli Name: Israeli War of Independence
Arab Name: an-Nakba (the Great Catastrophe)
Involved Arab Countries: Palestinian Militants, Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq AND contingents from Saudi Arabia and Yemen
Result: The Jewish Militias defeated the Arab Militias and the armies of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, and auxiliary forces from Saudi Arabia and Yemen. The ceasefire established a State larger than the one provided by the provisions of UN Resolution 181.

Result: In five days the Israeli army captured Gaza, Rafaḥ, and Al-ʿArīsh-taking thousands of prisoners-and occupied most of the peninsula east of the Suez Canal. The ceasefire ceded this land back to Egypt in return for navigation rights on the canal and through the Straits of Tiran.
Arab-Israeli War of 1967
Neutral Name, Israeli Name, and Arab Name: Six-Day War
Arab Name: an-Naksa (the Setback)
Involved Arab Countries: Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Palestinian Militants.
Result: Within the brief span of six days, the IDF overran the whole Sinai peninsula, up to the Suez Canal; took the entire West Bank of the River Jordan; and in the last days, without the benefit of surprise, captured a great part of the Golan Heights, including the dominant Mount Hermon - from then on "the eyes and ears of Israel". The culminating event was the capture of the Old City of Jerusalem and the re-encounter with the place most revered by Jews, the Western (Wailing) Wall. The blowing of the shofar at the Western Wall reverberated throughout the world.
Arab-Israeli War of 1967-1970

By the end of the conflict, Syria had intervened as well. The PLO was successfully evicted from Lebanon, and Israel completely withdrew from Lebanon in 2000.

What countries attacked israel when it was first created?
Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, and Iraq sent their armies. Saudi Arabia and Yemen sent epeditionary forces which served alongside the five main armies. Additionally, two Palestinian militant groups (the Holy War Army and the Arab Liberation Army) fought alongside the regular armies.
How was Israel invaded by 7 Arab armies?
I am not sure what you are asking. If you mean how did the forces from those Arab armies enter Israel, the answer is simple. All four of the countries that bordered Israel were a subset of the seven invading countries. The tanks literally just crossed the border. If you are asking about how Israel was unable to repel them immediately, the answer is also simple, Israel did not have the manpower to do that.
What is the importance of the Gaza Strip War?
The importance of Operation Cast Lead, also called the Gaza Strip War, is that it was the first major military confrontation between a governing Hamas Party and the Israeli Defense Forces. It resulted in over 1300 Palestinian casualties. It also set the tone for future Israel-Hamas relations, namely that Hamas was less inclined to attack Israel with rockets in the wake of the violence.

How did yom Kippur started the war?
Combined forces from Egypt and Syria attacked Israel with the aim of regaining territory lost to Israel in 1967. The attack took Israel by surprise. The initial attack took place on Yom Kippur (thus the name) and was specifically planned on that day since most of the country would be praying and fasting, as is traditional on Yom Kippur.
Is it possible for Israelis and Palestinians to create a system which forces them to become interdependent on each other?
Yes, of course. However, there is currently strong political inertia on both sides against such an interdependence. In the 1970s and 1980s, numerous Palestinians commuted to work in Israel, serving as Israel's dominant force of low-paid and low-skilled labor. Additionally, Palestinians were able to attend Israeli Arab schools, they became trained in more skilled professions, especially as doctors. From 1967-1979, Israel and the Palestinian Territories were for the other the highest-volume international trade partner with which they shared borders. Since the Intifadas in the late 1980s up to the current conflicts, Israeli and Palestinian leaders have chosen to isolate the two peoples. Most famously, Israel built the Security Fence to keep Palestinian Suicide Bombers out of mainland Israel. However, it also had the effect of making commuting between the Palestinian Territories and Israel nearly impossible, lessening connections between Palestinians and Israelis.
What region has been fought over by Israel and Syria?
1. In 1948 Syria joined other countries in a military effort to prevent the Israeli conquest of the country of Palestine. After the alliance was defeated the country of Israel was declared. Before 1948 there was nothing called Israel. 2. In 1967 The Israeli army initiated a massive attack on Syrian, Palestinian and Egyptian lands adjacent to the founded Israeli nation cutting off pieces of these countries and adding it to Israel including the Syrian 'Jolan' Heights. 3.

The Syrian army along with the Egyptian army launched an attack in an effort to regain the lands that where occupied by Israel in 1967. parts of the occupied Syrian land was returned including 'Qunaitirah' in the 'Jolan' Heights and international forces were deployed in the area.
