1 answer:

3 0

Marbury v. Madison (1803) was a Supreme Court case that settled the principle of judicial review in the United States, determining that American courts hold the authority to strike down laws, statutes, and some government actions that contradict the U.S. Constitution.

This decision established that the U.S. Constitution is an actual law, not merely a declaration of political principles, and helped set the boundary separating the executive and judicial branches of government.

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.
