The Holocaust and Jewish Resiliency

Question 8 • ELPGE Q1 M/J Civics 2106010 HCPS v24

How did the Holocaust lead to conflict between Israel and the Arab nations?

Answer
A
At the end of the war, Britain gave Palestine to Zionist leaders, angering Arab nations.
B
After the war, increasing Jewish immigration to Palestine displaced Arabs from their homes.
C
During the war, the Ottoman Empire did not allow Jewish refugees, angering Israeli leaders.
D
After the war, Palestine tried to prevent Jewish immigration, displacing many Holocaust survivors.

Explanation

The Holocaust left many Jewish survivors homeless and strengthened support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. Increased Jewish immigration and the creation of Israel contributed to Arab Palestinians losing homes and land, fueling conflict between Israel and Arab nations. Britain did not simply give Palestine to Zionist leaders, as choice A suggests.
