The United States tried to remain neutral during World War I, but numerous things occured that tipped the balance and made the U.S. finally declare war. The first thing was the sinking of the Lusitania in 1915, by Germany. The Lusitania was a ship carrying over 1,000 innocent passengers, with over 100 Americans onboard, a German U-boat sank the ship, ultimately killing everyone. Americans were furious about this, but it was not enough for the United States to declare war and join the Allied powers during World War I. The Zimmerman Telegram was the occurrence that finally made President Woodrow Wilson finally declare war. The Zimmerman Telegram was supposed to be a secret telegram to Mexico from the Germans, however it was decoded and brought to the United States' attention in 1917. This telegram stated if Mexico sided with Germany during World War I, and attacked the states, when Germany won the war they promised they would give Mexico territories. This was a huge threat, as Mexico bordered the United States, and it was the final straw into the United States entering World War I. On April 6, 1917, after the speech of Woodrow Wilson, the United States had officially declared war on Germany and entered World War I as one of the Allied powers.

1-How did WWII impact the conflict over Palestine?
vivado [14]

Answer:

After the end of World War Two, the Jewish Holocaust and other Nazi atrocities imposed on the victorious allies a pressing moral issue: What to do with the Jews? The Jewish people needed to be given a country, a land of their own.

Jewish migration to Palestine, a British mandate that existed after WWI and until 1948, significantly increased after the war. Jews bought land from the Arabs, created kibbutzim and purchased property.

In 1947, the United Nations voted a resolution to provide a two-state solution once the British Mandate in Palestine had expired: one state for the Arabs and one state for the Jews. In May 1948, Israel is proclaimed. The Arab people did not acept the UN resolution and rejected it. War erupted, several neighboring nations and Arab Palestinian units attack Israel but suffered a sound defeat. This was the First Arab-Israeli War.
