Nuggets from “Judgment Day: Islam, Israel, and the Nations” by Dave Hunt

The Jews were still waiting for their promised state while Muslim terrorists daily attacked and murdered them. Without settling the Jews in their own homeland as promised, and claiming that the situation had gotten beyond its control, Britain turned its mandate over to the United Nations in February 1947. UN debate began over what to do about the Jews in Palestine—a problem that is still the overwhelming burden to the nations of the world, exactly as the Bible said it would be. The families of “Palestinian Jews” have been living for a hundred generations in the land that God gave to their ancestors as an everlasting heritage.

On November 29, 1947, UN Resolution 181 partitioned the remaining 23 percent of Palestine that was left after 77 percent had been carved out to create Jordan. Of that reduced territory, 56 percent (13 percent of the original mandate) was allocated to a Jewish state, 42 percent to an Arab state, and 2 percent was set aside in an international zone for the holy sites in and around Jerusalem. Though they had been literally robbed of the land they had been promised, Jewish settlers accepted what they had been allotted. At least they had a national home recognized by the world. Furious, the Arabs demanded all of “Palestine,” and the six Arab delegates from Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen stormed out of the UN, threatening a war that would annihilate the Jews.
