TIMELINE
TIMELINE / POLITICAL STABILITY
Palestine was part of the Ottoman Empire before the late 19th to 20th century. The Ottoman Empire ruled Palestine for several centuries, and Palestine was very politically stable. The Ottoman Empire was a centralized government, meaning that executive and legislative power was focused centrally at the higher level instead of being more distributed at various lower-level governments. However, the empire's vast and varied areas took a lot of work to keep under control. In the everyday life of Palestine back then, communities followed traditional ways of organizing themselves. Agriculture was a big part of how things worked, driving the economy. Local leaders, chosen by the Ottoman leaders, played a role in keeping order and settling conflicts within their communities.
1800
In the 1800s, the whole conflict began to arise. Palisitines wanted more say in the Ottoman Empire affairs. Later, in the late 1800s, the Europeans began focusing on Palestine because of its location between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River. The Europeans saw significant colonial expansion as European empires competed to conquer the Middle East and other regions of the world. The British, competing with the French and Russians for power in the Middle East, regarded Palestine as a chance to establish a sphere of influence as early as the 1840s.
1897
1897
In 1897 The Zionist movement began for the Jews at the beginning of the 19th century. Jews were mistreated, abused, and faced discrimination by the Europeans, which led to their desire to seek a home in Palestine. This movement was named after Mount Zion in Jerusalem, Gaining much attention.
1917
1917
The British government made the Balfour Declaration 1917 at the start of World War I. The British formally supported the idea of a Jewish state in the area during World War I, when they were at war with the Ottomans who held Palestine. Even though Jews comprised less than 15% of the local population, the British government called for establishing a "national home for the Jewish people" in Palestine in its 1917 Balfour Declaration. Although the declaration pledged that "nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine," it did not specify who or what those communities were, what specific rights they had, how they would be protected, or take their ideas about how their land should be used into consideration. The intention was to win over the Jewish populations, particularly in Russia and the US. The declaration, which British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour inspired, aimed to win the support of significant Jews.
1920
1920
After World War I, Britain took charge of Palestine. That's when the British rule began. As time went on, tensions between Jewish and Arab communities in Palestine got worse. Both groups had different ideas about what they wanted, and the world situation didn't help.
1936
1936
The uprisings by Arabs against British rule and the Jewish migration, basically the Arab Revolution of 1936-1939. Arab peasants and nationalists were not happy with the British and the Zionist movement, and they decided to hold protests and use violence, leading to Britain's response to violence.
1939
1939
Then, in 1939, the British government, reacting to the Arab Revolution and the chaos of World War II, put out something called the White Paper. The White Paper severely limited Jewish immigration into Palestine for the five years that followed and required Arab approval for any additional immigration in the future. The Zionists weren't pleased with these restrictions. After the war, there was a lot of pressure, especially from the global community, for Britain to sort out the issue of displaced Jewish people who wanted to move to Palestine. Thousands of Holocaust survivors began moving to Palestine after World War II, supported by a more powerful Zionist organization.
1947
1947
In 1947, the United Nations suggested splitting Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab states, with Jerusalem under international leadership. Jewish leaders were on board. However, the Arabs disagreed, leading to more conflicts.
1948
1948
On May 14, 1948, after the departure of British soldiers from Palestine, Israel proclaimed its independence. That sparked the first Arab-Israeli War, fought between Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria, nations that opposed Israel's proclamation of independence. Even while the US swiftly recognized the new Israeli government in power, it decided not to get involved militarily. Israel won the war and took 77 percent of the former Palestinian mandate area, including territory the UN planned to give to the Arabs.
1967
1967
The Six-Day War was a quick but essential conflict in 1967. Israel fought against neighbouring Arab nations, including Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. Israel won the war in just six days and took control of territories like the Sinai Peninsula, Gaza Strip, West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Golan Heights. This war greatly impacted the Middle East and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
WAR
WAR
This wasn't just the end. There were several wars after, such as The Yom Kippur War in 1973, the first Lebanon War in 1982, The First Intifada, culminating in the Oslo Accords in 1987–1993, The Second Intifada from 2000 to 2003, the poorly withdrawal of Israel from Gaza in 2005, The Hamas takeover of Gaza and the Second Lebanon War in 2006, the wars in Gaza continuing from 2008 to 2014, A significant escalation in East Jerusalem and Gaza in 2021.
2023
2023
On October 7, 2023, Israel and Palestinian terrorist groups under the leadership of Hamas launched a focused surprise attack against Israel. At least 3,000 missiles fired from the Gaza Strip were launched towards Israel early in the morning. In just ten days, more than one million people have been displaced, 4,200 people have been dead, and significant portions of the Gaza Strip are in ruins. There are daily indicators of violations of the rules of war and international human rights legislation, military operations that show no signs of stopping, and the ongoing siege on Gaza harming the availability of water, food, medication, and other necessities.
