news forces did they. targeted five villages on the coast in the experiment with it to see whether it works and they expelled the inhabitants five villages under the eyes of the british soldiers who were there or still there to make forty eight and they found out that he was quite easy that it didn't take much there wasn't much resistance the british did not interfere there us. that was like a fear support and one of us that here was an illust and you know that here for us on here going to the word but what will be asked about a lot of them are the last areas like india that minute but you know sort of chef we know sally she done a childhood of checked it out in a lie to me from sitting in the can with her case i mean a big knife and a dollar

by late april one thousand nine hundred forty eight the city of haifa had fallen to jewish forces. the coastal town of jaffa was now the next target. here must have been given. only care that the button what decibel othella be bored. to her. dad after when you can't afford it but. at the end it didn't wholly get that way to really getting an f. camera you see about where he behold she. and there look there. are other shave only wrestlers skating or. although designated as part of the arab state in one thousand nine hundred forty seven un partition plan jewish forces set their sights on jaffa. during the last week of april bombing of the city

intensified the city's inhabitants were forced to flee the shelling by sea to lebanon and by road to east palestine and jordan. by may the fourteenth one nine hundred forty eight the hug had taken control of jaffa seventy thousand of its inhabitants had fled. the remaining males were transferred to central detention camps. detainees were forced to bury the corpses of fellow citizens now rotting in the streets.

they were also forced to transport the contents of arab homes ransacked by jewish fight in. kenya to membership in that way a federal woman has a lot of be here with greedy and ham and they would move. and no can. make tibet it ham them after but in the one accordance with the democrats with the what took place the two darnley own fee and met and big jam and their belief in which. men has it in their them that they will i'm one of them up in a study just on your feet how many of them that is your. method. for me that is

just what opiate them up at the show many of us do have a bond with self but if i've been absorbed in the month of the seventy you must do or should know about of no. never mind that we're at the we've got another lost lot of money in the bin at the ship that has thought it will us of the will but for a year to get there is you just sort of been left in the very little you horrible pub we can use the bus or. well battered but that's not what they were going to. let them at the home. about possible trouble starts when bucky ecomil feet out of people. and his at the met in an open and with them. i mean that. they can in a sort of. more hostile i mean that is you have. got to be ashamed of the. what i'm focused on the year and the in

left on orders from the leaders to clear the decks for the invading. arab armies and their promise that after the great are a victory they will be able to return to their homes so that is the traditional. version and it's completely untrue and there is massive amount of hard evidence to contradict this version half of the palestinians became who became refugees were already expelled from their houses by may nine hundred forty eight so why i could say that out of the five hundred thirty palestinian villages that were destroyed in the night in forty eight about half of these villages were already demolished by the fifteenth of may.

ethnic cleansing is an ideology that wants to get rid of one ethnic group in its entirety from the place where it lives the second stage of ethnic cleansing is to erase these people from the places history so it's also a cultural act of your asia of wiping them out of history of out of memory. and the third stage is to make sure that it will never come back. although the british army was still present in palestine jewish paramilitaries seized control of five major cities some two hundred villages were destroyed. ahead of the full british withdrawal more than three hundred fifty thousand palestinians were driven from their last. may the fifteenth was the date set for the end of the british mandate. yet for the jews this posed

a problem the fifteenth fell on a saturday the sabbath. so celebrates three announcements of the jewish state was sent out a day earlier on friday may the fourteenth. the british army hasten their retreat the jews had been gearing up to take over in fact they were assuring jewish before the. fourteenth of may a few days before otoh got to frag they were in maryland they were geared up by they were geared up and ready to go. on may the fourteenth one thousand nine hundred forty eight in this grand jury still in the home the last british high commissioner of palestine alan counting on signed a document terminating the british mandate. over three decades the british presence had helped a with the way for the realisation of the zionists dream. of

the minister of britain than do you are taking one hour in the morning counting and inspected the guard of honor in front of his jerusalem home. he then flew to haifa. from haifa he sailed to cyprus and the british flag was lowered. from the time the british occupied palestine in one nine hundred seventeen to when they left in one thousand nine hundred forty eight the number of jews is estimated to have multiplied ten times to hoffer million meanwhile as the british bid farewell to palestine ben-gurion arrived in tel aviv to ceremoniously declare the independence of the state of israel. well that is.

all. oh up my love with the law your the ball well. and. the state of israel was signed into existence at the stroke of a pen by twenty five leading members of the jewish community. here the behind the bangor ian hung a portrait of theodore hurt sole author of the book the jewish state back in one thousand nine hundred six. the star of david was hoisted the very same flag that had been raised in the settlement of reshown let's see on in one thousand nine hundred five since zionism is

a dynamic. movement. they there was no they knew that there was no finality about the borders there. they knew that opportunities with the rise in due course. to take the rest of it and they did. and one to six or seven it was the thinking behind the zionist movement gradual there the building of a jewish state and then the gradual expansion of the borders of the jewish state is real they have pneumonia and the new citizens of israel to the north trying the jewish declaration of independence believe in korean. to the miers woman member of the new council and foreign minister of what. i'm writing from and become due through three hundred twenty minutes after the tel of

eve ceremony the united states and mended a document on what they had previously referred to as the new jewish state the new wording now read the state of israel it was signed by president harry truman and then announced by the us representative to the united nations united states recognized the provision of the regime and. the fact. that israel a new state was born on the foundations of the british mandate. and the house and i lay in what i thought an environment the menace and alan is the clear let me add the one with how do i come here i mean if you are like with the other heba and the clear the sony it will be clear that's been going on and. we'll hear a. minute entered the minute a molecular come here from out you have the underside out there and i'm a tumble i'm on

a summer to dawdle every year futile or more bustle of them. so that i'm going to. focus a lot of us who are going to put if it would all go on was a certain. elysia c.e.o. more subtle ability. the eight. for your costars comes. the maryland. have to be. what i did. more good work. will make that we come out or not potentially and we'll have them fuck up well and there's a media as well as the me just what i mean when what and when it is. well. known was. instance that the lead though to not just. the british had not allowed forces from neighboring arab countries to enter palestine until after their departure by may the fifteenth with the last

british troops gone arab armies and to become tree from the borders of lebanon egypt and what was then called trans-jordan their declared objective to liberate palestine that day the new york times ran the headline jews in grave danger in muslim lands have come back to the united states to tell jews in the united states how the state of israel has been formed. and holding their ground in their country instead of the fact that they have been out numbered by the arabs and the arabs have come much better equipped with heavy and the jews have in their possession their reasoning is a simple one. rather fighting in family time the state of israel and fighting for the only thing that they have in their possession it is life or death to them the

jewish forces in nine hundred forty seven forty eight they were far stronger far more numerous actually than the combined arab. they were highly. prepare. highly dedicated well armed. fighting force which was superior to all the arab armies by except perhaps one army which the one army which they didn't really take on and they made a deal with really talking about the jordanian army and happy and yes a lot of us are violently the hurts people seen for me there and then taken as the admission that he. didn't think. the sun and the couldn't just let it get that it is shouted at them to. also eleven. million who didn't let us getting in without our being and most i didn't look at that just got to be typical mad that i'm taken with the head that the. one of them are american who really care

why have there been given medic of the law family for general one hundred damage only in jewish iraq if you look at calumet dorman book of that was the fact one of the most. bitterly divided disorganized and ramshackle coalitions in the history of modern warfare i got so used in there was lots of people are probably going to tumble out of the hobbit with no plan and how to explain to the public and snap most of the wisdom of the messiah seductive for this did not look at liberty. to say would be your mother so to call her good and him together and to me that's better mika thought of it as your kind of a toss of the garbage world market with plenty of good out of the real job. you know what about he is kind of the market to sell poseidon but how much for. two days after the arab armies entered palestine the israeli forces drew their focus on

a cost a little would. not be new on women have not been met though the fool not near on him. and bill them for the month in the month of the initiate. a lot of the let me have a. foul and ten thousand of its inhabitants were expelled. and naomi. is that good because it's lent. being got better stuff up propped up rockefeller well a nod to. the north. where you have nothing and nothing left what if the job board . meant amendment added thoughtfully i thought. what a lie and i'm out of club a lot of cooked up to have enough to know that i think i'm to tend to right for the

and it t.n.t. the end of the end and i'm a bit more though i depend on the me can still give hilarity or a little give and mostly we have the floor how do. we laugh that's how massive oh you are my home we left him. or a devil in the. happy were little uneasy. about socialization of the commuter. the jordanian army was commanded by an englishman john blubaugh known as glub pascha. over forty other british officers also served in the army and held great influence under british advice king abdullah of trans-jordan agreed to a secret deal with the jewish leaders to avoid clashes between the jordanian army

and the jewish fighters in return for the west bank and east jerusalem such token resistance was the reason glob later called the one nine hundred forty eight war the phoney. club is a very complex character he was not the simple minded soldier that he pretended to be but he was a highly sophisticated politician who imposed on the arabs britain's partition plan the meeting was between bevin the labor governments foreign secretary. and. a bull holder the jordanian prime minister who was accompanied by glub pasha also acted as an interpreter bevin asked. what do you plan to do and. said we plan to send the arab legion to protect and keep the are
