Palestine, logic and schoolbooks

If 'B' is after 'A', it is not necessary because of 'A'.
If 'D' is after 'A', 'B','C', it is strange to write that 'D' happens after 'B' , especially if 'D' is something not good. There might be an intent to drive someone to a non-logical conclusion that bad 'D' would not have happened because of 'B'.

Let us have an example.


'A' - Ottoman Empire is defeated and land is split into different 'Mandate' lands: Syria, Palestine, Mesopotamia etc. League of Nations gives mandate to Great Britain to establish National Home for Jewish people in palestine mandate land, to settle and develope the land with a help of Jewish people. (Which is successfully achieved now). Britain gives about 80% of land to Hashemites, Transjordan is formed.

'B' - after revolts and military unrests, United Nations recommends to split the rest of mandate land and form 2 states - one for Jews, other for Arabs. British power is ended and State of Israel declares it's indpendence.

'C' Arab states declare their intention to destroy Israel and push Jews into the see and attack Israel. Palestinian state is not formed despite land is occupied by Arab countries.

'D' - year of military conflicts and a peace process.


If the book or article you read states that military conflicts in 'Palestine' started in 1948 AFTER creation of State of Israel, this is not only factually wrong, it also fails logic and moral ground. It would be more logical to assume that military conflicts started after Arab countries attacked Israel, or may be tell student of League of Nation mandate and Balfour declaration...

If you are preparing to your history exams, please read your book carefully, see if Israel and Jews are blamed on their existence and denied history and right to self-determination.


If you prepare to your exam with AKAD book GS 512(9783715536835) , please check logic applied in this book? Think why book is written this way and if there is a particul blames or libels in the text.
