Answer 1

Israel was "set up" to give the Jewish people a homeland, a nation after the Holocaust of WW2. If you remember during the war the Jews had nowhere to flee, being persecuted in the countries they had lived for generations. Some could not leave these countries. They could not get out and had no place to go from the persecution. Other European countries would not take them, some did flee to the USA in time. Because of the Holocaust and the horrendous things done to the Jewish people, after the war, through British mandate Israel became a nation on May 14, 1948. Never again will they be a people without a nation with nowhere to flee. It is His will, according to the scriptures, the word of God..

Answer 2

Jews wanted their own country. So they went to Palestine, killed a lot of people, forced out a lot more people, and took the land. They changed the name from Palestine to Israel. Now the Jews have a country but the Palestinians don't. Some people call this theft; some people call it God swill.

Answer 3

Who set up Israel? - Jewish Zionists, non-Jewish Zionists, and collaborators acting in personal, national, or strategic interest.

How was Israel set up? - Israel came into being through a very interesting historical trajectory. Britain created the Mandate of Palestine with the initial intention that it would be a future Jewish state as discussed in the Balfour Declaration. In 1939, Britain issued the White Papers, limiting Jewish Immigration to the land and ostensibly going back on their word. After World War II, when the colonial empires were shrinking, Britain continued to deny the Jews a right to a State. This resulted in Jewish violence in the territory. (There was already Arab violence and independence movements in the territory.) Britain ceded the question to the United Nations whose general assembly approved the binding UN Resolution 181 providing for the Declaration of a Jewish State and an Arab State in the Mandate of Palestine. The Arabs rejected this Resolution and argued that they would not consider it (even though it was International Law). The Jews, at the discretion and right given them by the UN Resolution, declared an independent Jewish State.

Why was the Jewish State set up? - To protect the Jewish people from the non-Jewish world which has consistently historically attacked them, murdered them, forcibly converted them, and made their lives a living hell in some cases. The Holocaust proved that even modern Western countries could be prone to such malicious Anti-Semitic Activities.
