Yea U.N. proposed a Israeli State alright but ws it ever accepted by arabs? Now, your history says:
You guys started out as mostly illegal immigrants in Palestine but then..
1945: With the ending of World War II, and the horrors of holocaust were laid open, Zionist demands on self-government increased. From now on, illegal immigration to Palestine was organized.
1947: UN takes control over Palestine.
? November 29: A UN plan for dividing Palestine into two countries, one Jewish and one Arab, with Jerusalem as international zone, is presented. This plan was immediately met by violent protest from the Arabs.
1949 February 24: Egypt declares that the agreement on cease fire, is not an acceptance of the state of Israel. The Israeli territory has increased from the 15,500 kmē that the UN-resolution of 1947 gave them, to 20,700 kmē.
And that was only the beginning of land grabbing.. it's still going on.. I think if the illegal immigrants of the U.S. claimed a state for themselves in the U.S. most Americans would be pretty pissed too and if they claimed a state and showed a mid finger at Americans it would get even worse

To add to this, palestinians were kicked out of their homes, businesses and any property they owned was now owned by jewish families. They were no longer a citizen of palestine because palestine (aside from the arabs, china and russia etc) was no longer a country. So the palestinians with no home, no money, no country to call home.. were forced to either restart there lives as second class citizens in Israel or move to neighboring countries such as Jordan, Kuwait and Iraq.
