Hamas's attack on Israel is the latest event in a long history of conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. The terrorist attacks, which occurred last weekend, are the largest assault on Jews since the Holocaust, with terrorists killing hundreds of people and kidnapping soldiers and civilians.
Britain's promise led tens of thousands of Jewish civilians to migrate to Palestine in the 1920s and '30s. The territory of Palestine was divided into three parts: Israel, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip. Egypt had control of the Gaza Strip, and Jordan had control of the West Bank until 1967.The Suez War began in October 1956, when Israeli forces invaded Egypt through the Sinai Peninsula after Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser announced he planned to nationalize the Suez Canal Company.
The Six-Day War was spurred on by a series of border disputes. By the 1960s, Syrian-backed Palestinian guerrillas were attacking along the Israeli border, leading to counter-raids from the Israel Defense Forces. Nearly 2,700 Israeli soldiers died during the 19-day war, and a ceasefire was eventually secured by the U.N. In April 1974, the nation’s prime minister, Golda Meir, stepped down following criticisms of a lack of preparedness from the Israeli government."Intifada" is Arabic, and it translates to"shaking off." It refers to the uprisings of the Palestinian people aimed at ending Israel's occupation of the territories.
Hamas first employed suicide bombing in April 1993, five months before PLO leader Yasser Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin signed the Oslo Accords. It established limited self-governance in parts of Gaza and the West Bank under the governance of the Palestinian Authority. Hamas condemned the accords and the recognition of Israel.The U.S. declared Hamas a foreign terrorist organization in 1997.
