Best Answer

Jewish leaders were granted autonomy over a portion of land by an affirmative

majority vote of the UN General Assembly in November, 1947. They declared the

sovereign state of Israel in May, 1948. At that point, Israel was independent, and

there was no war to make it so.

The event was deemed a catastrophe (small 'c') by Israel's neighbors, who welcomed

the new nation into the community of nations with a united invasion by their massed

armies. The subsequent war was one of survival on the part of Israel, and succeeded

in its purpose.
