Phoenix, AZ: Jewish Voice Ministries International, 2011. — 11 p.Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948. That same night, the combined armies of Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, along with troops from Saudi Arabia and Yemen invaded Israel. Their stated aim was to create a United States of Palestine in place of the Jewish nation established by the UN vote. The invasion was condemned by the United States and other nations as illegal, but it proceeded as thousands of soldiers streamed across the borders.
Arabs living in the new Jewish state were told by Arab leaders in other nations to leave their homes until the Jews could be driven out. They were told it would only be a matter of days or weeks until they could return to their homes. . .
