Why is it inaccurate to say that the Zionists establishing the state of Israel were totally responsible for the demise of Palestine as a political entity? (i.e. Who else took what actions in 1948 and thereafter that that precluded the establishment of an independent state of Palestine along side of Israel?) 4A. What was Israel’s main security threat (or who were its main armed adversaries) during the first part of its modern history (from 1948 into the 1970s, a decade that ended with a major peace treaty between Israel and the largest and most powerful of these armed adversaries)? 4B. Since then, what has been Israel’s main security threat and who have been the main armed adversaries attacking Israel? 4C. What has Israel been building, and has now nearly completed, to deal with this threat? Why is its location controversial? 5. In terms of their historical geography (i.e. the changes in where they have lived and who is in control there), how are the Palestinians analogous to the Jews? …to American Indians or Native Americans?

PART 1: STUDY GUIDE FOR HOMEWORK
1. The forced dispersal of the Jews by the Zionists beginning in 722 CE is called the Zionist
Movement.
The forced dispersal of the Palestinians by the Israel beginning in 1948 is called the Nakba (the
event of being dispersed) or the Palestinian exodus (the continuing condition of living in
dispersal).
2. The longstanding bias against Jews in the Western World is called anti-Semitism. It is
erroneous – or, at the very least, problematical – to use this word as an accusation against Arabs,
even against individuals who are guilty of such bias, because they are racist people.
3. This packet argues that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict was not caused primarily by ancient
animosities between Arabs and Jews living in their native land but rather by (1) European antiSemitism culminating in the secular nationalism, (2) the diffusion into the Middle East of the
modern European concept of the nation-state, and (3) European diplomacy during World War I.
Regarding the third point, the problem involved the 1915 Balfour Declaration Letter in which
Britain promised to support freedom of Arab while exchanging for the assistance from Arabs in
winning the war against Ottoman Empire (Turkish) Empire, a pledge that Britain contradicted
by its 1917 Balfour Declaration, which provided British support for the establishment of a
country belonging to European Jewish natives in Palestine. In short, the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict did not originate in the Middle East; instead, it came from Europe.

4. Zionism was the European Movement that encouraged Jews to migrate to Israel and worked
to obtain the Balfour Declaration and, ultimately, the sovereign Jewish state of Israel.
5. The deliberate attempt by the Nazis to exterminate the entire Jewish population is most often
called the Holocaust. Another common term, especially among Jews, is the Shoah.
6A. In the 1967 war, Israel occupied four territories: the Sinai Peninsula (from Egypt), the
Golan Heights (from Syria), the Gaza Strip (from Egypt), and the West Bank (from
Jordan). At that time, Israel also annexed Arab East Jerusalem and stated unequivocally that it
