When he was a young lad he was sent by his father to check on his brothers who were serving with King Saul's army. He accepted the challenge of Goliath for one on one combat to settle the battle between Saul and the Philistines. He found Saul's armour to heavy but defeated Goliath with a sling and stone in the Valley of Ela. (1st Samuel - Chapter 17)
He went on to be Saul's son in law, confidant of Jonathan (Saul's son), and (estranged) member of Saul's court. David eventually succeeded Saul. He reigned for 7 years in Hebron and then established his capital in Jerusalem where he reigned for 33 years.)
He was succeeded by his son Solomon who built the First Temple.

As concerns the 1948 Nakba or Israeli Independence War, there is a controversy over
exactly why Palestinians left their land. There is some evidence that there was an Israeli
attempt to remove them. There is also evidence that Arab leaders told them to leave
in order to avoid getting caught in the fighting (from which the Arabs would emerge
victorious). In the middle, there is evidence of just overwhelming fear, both justified and
unjustified, of what Israeli soldiers would do. In some cases, such as the massacre at
Deir Yassin, these fears proved reasonable. Elsewhere they did not. Because of this
controversy, it is difficult to tell who drove the Palestinians out of Israel: the Israeli Army
or the Arab Leadership. Whatever the driving force, it's not quite accurate to say that
"the Palestinians" were driven out. Those who left certainly left. But significant numbers
did not leave. Arabs comprise roughly 20% of Israel's population, mosques stand
throughout the country, there are several predominantly-Arab Israeli towns especially
in the north, and Arabic is one of two official languages of Israel.
As for establishing the modern capital at Jerusalem, this was done by Prime Minister
David Ben Gurion in 1950. Previously, Jerusalem had been too hotly contested a city
(militarily speaking) to serve as a nerve center for Israel. After the war, Ben Gurion
knew that putting the Israeli capital in Israel would cement the claims of the Jewish
connection to the Land.

Why are palestinians upset?
Answer 1In the olden days of 1364, Palestine was a large nation of Jordan, Syria and Israel. Then Israel ran away which made the Palestinians unhappy. 500 years later the Israelis were treated very badly and needed a place to stay, so the Palestinians let them stay with them. Little did they know, Israelis would flood into their land and have the UN on their side, which allowed them to become a free nation in 1948. So basically the Palestinians were unhappy because they had to share their land.Answer 2Palestinian Arabs ... particularly those who don't live in Israel ... are unhappy with Israel largely because the entire concept of a Jewish country in that otherwise totally Muslim region is unacceptable to them. Had there been any whose resolve on the matter might have wavered during the past 60 or 70 years, government policy, government propaganda, and the educational system have united to firm it up.Answer 3The Palestinians were initially unhappy with the State of Israel because they believed that the land that had physically belonged to their parents and grandparents should have been there's for inheritance. In their minds, it did not make sense that a group of German, Polish, French, English, and Russian speaking people should claim land that their ancestors had not even visited for centuries. Even by the time of Israel's Declaration of Statehood, less than half of the land within the UN proscribed borders of Resolution 181 was owned by Jews. Therefore, the idea of Jewish State being even more physically expansive than the land already taken was alarming.During the Jewish-Arab engagement (the term is nebulous because it was a conflict fought by militias as opposed to proper armies) of 1947-1949, both Arab and Jewish soldiers committed acts against civilians and tried to assist in the removal of the "undesirable party". This resulted in numerous Palestinian towns being attacked, rapes occurring, and murders on numerous occasions. Fear of further attacks and incitement by Arab Mullahs drove many Palestinians away from their homes. After the conflict, Israel, in order to maintain its Jewish character, has not permitted any Palestinian refugee to reclaim land inside of Israel. Palestinians are very angry both at the Jewish malfeasance during the Jewish-Arab engagement and the continuing lack of their Right to Return or (although less desirable to most Palestinians) compensation for their lost property.Those Palestinians who did not flee were naturalized as Israeli citizens, but they shoulder a lot of hurt over the Israeli actions in the Jewish-Arab Engagement. In addition, they feel (similar to the Blacks in the United States) that even though they have equality on paper and politicians who represent their interests, there is a clear prejudice against them in the job market, housing market, and as concerns education. A famous example was how on Jerusalem's 40th reunification anniversary, there were massive rainstorms and badly constructed Arab sewers of East Jerusalem which had not been modified since Jordan controlled the region flooded up and out of many people's toilets. The same did not happen in the Jewish neighborhoods which did have more modern construction. This angers a number of Israeli Arabs who self-identify as Palestinians.Finally, Palestinians are angry with Israeli treatment of the Palestinian Territories, namely the blockade/starvation of Gaza and the direct military occupation of the West Bank. These military activities prevent Palestinian self-realization and governance. Furthermore, the military occupation of the West Bank is accompanied by a proliferation of settlements (economically incentivized by the Israeli government) and illegal settlements (by lack of Israeli governmental opposition to such moves). This is seen by many Palestinians as a Jewish land-grab and a denial of their Right to a State as well.Note: This is not to say that even if all of these grievances were atoned for in some way or another that Palestinians would suddenly accept Israel as there are numerous Palestinians and Arabs who have vowed to never accept Israel as a valid state for many different reasons. However, the above are the most prevalent and common grievances cited by Palestinians concerning Israeli treatment.
What is the farthest city from Jerusalem?
Strange as it may seem . . . If you drove a pencil from Jerusalem down through the center of the earth and out the other side, the city closest to the point on the earth directly opposite Jerusalem is Papeete, Tahiti. The point is actually out in the South Pacific Ocean, and Papeete is about 1,000 miles to the north-northwest.
