What I mean by that is if Israel had been created in Europe somewhere there would be a lot less problems today. Also you have to ask yourself was it a clever strategic move on behalf of the United Nations to choose the area for Israel. I mean considering they knew back then that there was a lot of oil in the middle east. They could disguise that fact by saying that it was their land hundreds of years ago. Why would after the total destruction of world war 2 the UN decide that Israel should be created in Arab lands in total and complete opposition of the people of that area?

Look don't make me laugh ok. Native Americans have a historical claim to the lands of the United States and if the rest of the world decided that they wanted the Natives American's to partition the states and create a legal State of their own and that State continued to take your land piece by piece you wouldn't be very happy about it. Especially if you had lived there for hundreds of years as you have.

There was a reason that Israel was established in Palestine. That reason was foresight. The UN don't do things by chance. 3 years of planning had gone into deciding how and where the state of Israel would come about. People think these decisions are undertaken like a trip to the grocery store to get some grapes.

Exactly 11 minutes after Israel was born Truman pledged his support and recognition of Israel. The man couldn't have been anymore eager. Why was he so eager? Because he knew exactly how important it would be in the future to have a close ally in that kind of position in the middle east. That is why the US has massively supported Israel throughout the years. To keep the middle east from becoming strong on their own abundant natural resource. They knew of the muslim's intention's. They knew that the majority of muslim leaders agreed with Hitler's ideologies. Nothing was taken to chance with the American forethought of years to come in the middle east.

Hey that is an incredible way to think of it. Wow i really never thought about it that way. You actually maybe right or onto something.
Yes, Yes. We can say that some Jews use to live in Palestine. Hooowever everyone is a child of Jerusalem, but not necessarily Jewish. We had Muslims, Christians and Jews. A minority actually were Jewish. Did Jesus say yes I am Jewish? No. The Jews won't even acknowledge him in their religion. So you cannot the Jews owned Palestine back then or that would mean every person is entitled to the land because we all originated from there.
The Palestinians have lived on Jewish land far more longer than the 'true' Jews. While the jews decided to go live in other European countries, the Palestinians stayed in Palestine and have so for many years. Why the hell did the 'true' Jewish population never take or ask for Palestine since the 6000 years. Why did they wait so long? Why is it only Christian nations fought for it but not the Jewish people?
Once the Europeans didn't want them anymore, they said hey Palestine is our land, so were going to live there now. You cannot do that. You cannot cry about something, which you never cared about before. The Jews traded the land of Palestine for money and big buildings in Europe, until kicked out.
Now the UN must have placed 'true' jews there for a reason, as you said. The UN of course during that time realized the value of oil and its abundance in the middle east. But what would happen if these middle eastern countries had too much power and controlled the world. No this wouldn't be in the interest of the UN, lol dominated by American influence. So they possibly placed Israel there to have some kind of influence in the region, create conflict. Why else would America be sending 50 billion dollars of arms a year to Israel?
Makes sense.

That's because the Europeans felt guilty about their crimes against the Jews of Europe.
People say that having a Jewish state in Europe would have no context (don't know what the means).
And the Zionists worked hard to get support for the creation of Israel. They also transformed desert land into land rich with vegetation. And yes, a state for the Jews was proposed by the UN. The Arabs rejected that plan, and wanted to see a one state solution. The British occupation in Palestine tried to calm things down between Jews and Arabs. But things started to get nasty. Those Irgun and Stern gangs used very similar tactics like the current Iraqi insurgents use. So yes, Israel was partly founded on force.
And Palestinians still continue to pay the price for what the Jews of Europe went through all those decades ago. Its a shame.

Even native American land claims have a problem. Even they immigrated from another continent over the land bridge in the Bering Sea! I believe that all peoples currently on Earth today originated from Indonesia! So if you follow your logic all the way back then they are the only ones that have a rightful claim on any land world wide! It was the fault of both the US and Britain that israel was sanctioned by the UN in 48! When are they going to correct their massive mistake?

To paraphrase the Christ (pbuh) I think you're straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel.
The gnat is the explanation that the Brits or the UN chose as the new Jewish homeland, the land they felt the Jews originally came from.
Now I don't know what the camel is yet, but since it took the UN 3 years of planning, I bet it's a beauty.
Here's my question for you.
Israel is the size of Massachusetts and half of that is desert.
So if the UN decided to give a half desert, Massachusetts sized chunk of America to the Native Americans as a homeland. What would Americans do?
A) Spend the next 60 years shrieking about betrayal, and swearing to drive every last one of those f**king Indians into the sea. OR
B) Patronize Indian Casinos and purchase handicrafts.
The camel I can't swallow is that that minor bit of real estate called Israel, has anything to do with the current Arab/Muslim difficulty in creating prosperous and tolerant societies.

1. every Jewish believes that the middle east from Nile to Forat is the land of Israel.
2. The existence of Israel the middle east will ensure the weakness of All Arab couturiers around it and will make them fighting each other.
3. It was known that the establishment of Israel in the middle east will happen.. Muslims knew that more than 1400 years ago.. there will be a continues was for Long time...!

It's probably because a great many Jewish holy sites are situated in the region. Also, the Jewish and Christian holy texts identify this region as holy to Jews. Don't forget, too, that the Jews ruled in this general area sporadically starting in the 11th century BCE. This was long before it was conquered by the Muslims. (approx. 636 CE)
Now, as for the political stuff, who can say? Although I don't agree with your assumption that if the Jewish state had been created in Europe there would be less problems... I sincerely doubt any country in Europe would have willingly given up territory for creation of such a state.

Becoz Jews deserved their historic land, and made 1/3 rd of the population of undivided Palestine. Its just arabs don't acknowledge its existence coz they want their say all the time.
For Eg.- They justify partition of India and creation of Muslim state Pakistan on communal ground where Muslims made 23% of population before independence, but they will never accept Israel. Today even, provinces where Muslims in Secular countries like Thailand, Phillipnes, Russia, etc are in majority they call for separate state. Finances do come from the arabian peninsula

It was not, it was lands that the Arabs had taken from the Jews, hundreds of years ago, and by United Nations charter, was returned to them.
They did begin to move into British occupied Palestine, however the U.N. made it official.

A small point: the UN did not establish Israel. Jews began moving to the British Mandate of Palestine on their own decades before WWII, and Israel was established by a war of independence. No one gave the Israelis anything.
