1. Israel creation was fully legitimate and good. As many Arabs are living in former mandate territory, there should be 2 states for 2 people. Israel should meet internationally desired borders, so called ' green line'. Main critic is that Israel is not giving up Jerusalem and some land in Judea and Samaria. It assumes if Israel does so, there will be a solution = peace.
2. Israel creation was not legitimate and/or unjust to Palestinian Arabs. ''Zionists" are guilty and to be blamed, but as Israel is already existing, 2 state solution is practical way to solve the conflict. Palestinian Arabs have right to "resistance".
Most interesting example was a statement of Helen Thomas.

If you prepare to your history exams with AKAD book GS512 or any other book, please ask yourself the following questions.
1. If your textbook make a point that legality of creation of State of Israel is doubtful and/or was act of injustice.
Will student understand the book in a way that Israel should not exist?
2. Or is you book only doubts a division of land and borders?
3. Does your book similarly question borders or existance of other states in the region - Lebanon, Jordan, Syria? When these states were createf?
4. Can you conclude from your book that Jewish people have no rights to self-determination because they were minority (in every country)? Should some land belong to someone on the basis of percent population at any particular time point? Do people migrate at all?
5. Have state of Palestine ever existed before and what was the border of it?
6. If you think that your school book is simply unbalanced, or fail some logic, what could be reason for it ?
7. Do you think it is good that your book is reviewed by other historians and experts in antisemitism?
