The conflict over the establishment of the state of Israel.
Immediately after Israel declared itself an independent nation (free of British mandate control), a coalition of Arab states attacked, in 1948. Another war over the Suez Canal zone followed in 1956 -- though that was more a direct matter between Egypt and Israel (as well as Britain and France). Further wars between Israel and Arab neighboring states occurred in 1967 (the Six Day War) and in 1973 (the Ramadan or Yom Kippur War).

Answer:
This rapid growth increase was mainly caused by a decreasing death rate (more rapidly than birth rate), and particularly an increase in average human age. By 2000 the population counted 6 billion heads, however, population growth (doubling time) started to decline after 1965 because of decreasing birth rates.
Explanation:Rapid growth has led to uncontrolled urbanization, which has produced overcrowding, destitution, crime, pollution, and political turmoil. Rapid growth has outstripped increases in food production, and population pressure has led to the overuse of arable land and its destruction.
One could make the argument for any one of the aforementioned events. However, I would have to argue that the Louisiana Purchase was the most significant for a few different reasons:
1) Jefferson used the concept of implied powers in order to buy this land from France. Nowhere in the US Constitution does it say that presidents can buy land from foreign countries. However, Jefferson argues that this power can be implied. Due to Jefferson's actions, several presidents after him will follow suit and buy territories from other countries.
2) It doubled the size of the United States.
3) It initiated the US's policy of Manifest Destiny. This concept that America should control all land from the Atlantic to Pacific Ocean was one that was introduced in the early 19th century. The first big land annexation of this time was the Louisiana territory (1803). After this purchase, the US would continue to grow in size thanks to buying land from other countries and war.
Henry Clay was known for his skill in negotiation. Clay himself is oftentimes referred to as "The Great Negotiator" for his skill in bringing both sides together in Congress to pass laws. The Missouri Compromise was one of his crowning achievements wherein Missouri was to enter the Union as a slave state; however, Northerners felt that would tip the balance in Congress. Clay and others negotiated an outcome where Massachusetts would give up what is now Maine, which would then be made a free state in the North.
