Answer 1

Answer:

- the division of Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab states

- US support for Israel's military

Explanation:

After the World War II ended, the international community gave the Jewish people the right to return to their homeland Israel and make their own country there. While this was excellent news for the Jews, the Arab world was furious. The Arabs saw the settling of the Jews and the formation of Jewish country as offensive toward the Arabs, and as stealing of their lands. The Arab population in Israel that started using the name Palestinians (ironically enough that is a Jewish term) was separated and concentrated into parts of this territory, but lost the majority of their land. The US support from Israel increased the tensions even more, and soon military conflicts started between Israel and several Arab countries, with the small Israel managing to be victorious in all of them.
