Solution
- When Jews moved to Palestine and owned land, it made Arabs afraid.
- The Balfour Declaration (1917) called for a Jewish state, which made the Arab people furious.
- Arabs, who opposed the division of Palestine, rejected the UN Partition Plan (1947).
- When Israel was founded in 1948, it went to war with Arab countries that were close by.
- Tensions between Arabs and Israelis are made worse by disagreements over land, refugees, and religious places.
