Israel was created in 1947 by the United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine, accordant to United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181. This resolution terminated the British Mandate for Palestine and partitioned the territory into two states - one Jewish and one Arab, with Jerusalem/Bethlehem coming under international protection, administered by the United Nations. Thus, Palestine's territory was decreased but it was given independence, a new state was created, and a new protectorate was created.

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.
The United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine or United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181 was a plan approved by the United Nations on November 29, 1947 to terminate the British Mandate of Palestine by August 1, 1948 and recommend the creation of two states, one Jewish and one Arab, in Palestine. The plan was approved by the United Nations General Assembly by 33 votes to 13, with 10 abstentions.
In 1947, the United Kingdom decided to leave the problem of Palestine to the United Nations. Faced with increasing violence and conflict between Jewish and Arab communities in the region, the UK announced its intention to withdraw from its mandate over Palestine, leading to the UN's involvement in proposing a partition plan to resolve the conflict.
The United Nations proposed a plan to divide Palestine into a Jewish state and an Arab state.
On November 29, 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted UN Resolution 181 which specified that Mandatory Palestine would be divided into an Arab State and a Jewish State. However, the plan was only actualized in May of 1948 when the State of Israel declared independence according to the terms prescribed by UN Resolution 181.
