No. Killing Arabs or any person is completely unacceptable and wrong. Any disagreements you may have with Arabs merit discussion and resolution, not violence.
No. In 1947, the United Nations, not the United States, adopted a plan calling for the division of the British Mandate of Palestine into a Jewish and Arab States. The United States supported this Resolution but did not "adopt" it.
Israel's creation was the result of it declaring independence with permission granted by UN Resolution 181. There was no treaty involved.
Yes. In 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted Resolution 181.
In 1948, when the British announced the end of the Mandate, the Jewish Settlement used the opportunity and the legal avenue opened by UNGA Resolution 181 (II) to issue the Israeli Declaration of Independence. The effect was that the day after, seven Arab armies from neighboring countries joined with the Arab Militias already fighting against the Jewish Settlement within former Mandatory Palestine. As the fighting progressed, Israel was able to repel the invaders and claim about 78% of British Mandate of Palestine as the grounds of their new state. The War is considered by most to be an Israeli Victory, not only because Israel survived the war, but actually retained control over more territory after the ceasefire than it would have had if the Arabs had accepted UNGA Resolution 181 (II).
The British did nothing to try and ease tensions between the Arabs and Jews in 1948. By that point, they had already begun a phased withdrawal of British troops from Mandatory Palestine in realization that the UNGA Resolution 181 (II) was going to be implemented.
