 * .  In 1917, British Prime Minister Arthur Balfour issued the Balfour Declaration which started the Arab-Israeli conflict. This Declaration, written on November 2, 1917, stated that the Jewish could establish a Jewish state in Palestine. On May 14,  1948, Jewish colonizers declared Israel’s founding. The Arab countries refuse and announce war against Israel after Israels’ Proclamation of statehood. On the night of the 14th to 15th of May, Jordan, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, and Egypt all invade territory in the used-to-be Palestinian ground. After 9 months, 3 weeks, and 2 days of numerous bloodshed, the war ended with Israels  Triumph on March 10, 1949. That is when Israel became an independent state. 7 years later, on October 29, 1956, the second Arab-Israeli war began. The Suez Crisis began when Israeli forces pushed into Egypt toward the Suez Canal after Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser nationalized the canal   The Israelis were joined by the French and British forces, which nearly brought the Soviet Union into the conflict and damaged their relationships with the United States.   For three months, the leading countries fought bravely. After the success of Israel, and the occupation of Sinai by Israel, the United States of America enforces Israel to withdraw from Sinai on November 7, 1956.  On May 30th, 1967, a defense pact was signed by the President of Egypt Gamal Abd Alnasir and King Husayn of Jordan followed on June 4 by a defense pact between Cairo and Baghdad.  Against this backdrop, the United States feared a major Arab- Israeli confrontation and asked Israel to delay military action. Threats and provocations continued to escalate until the 5th of June 1967 when Israel sent massive air assault against Egyptian airfield. Within 3 days, Israel occupied the Sinai peninsula. Israel then attacked Jordan and occupied the west bank and old city before Jordan accepted a ceasefire on June 7th.   Israel declared it would not give up Sinai and other captured territories until a great process had been made. Following the Arab defeat and the occupation of Palestine, and other territories in Egypt, Jordan, and Syria, the overall consequence of the war weighed heavily on the Arabs.On September 28, 1970, Egypt’s president passed away and was soon replaced by Anwar Al Sadat, 17 days later,  on October 15, 1970.  On October 6th, 1973, on Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement a 2 pronged assault on Israel was launched. At 2:00 P.M. sharp, Egyptian aircraft had set off cross the Suez canal. Egyptian forces struck eastward across the Canal while the Syrians advanced North. These attacks caught the Israelis off guard and it took the country several days to fully mobilize their armed forces.  In November, fighting continued on the Syrian front until a ceasefire was negotiated between Egypt and Israel in 1974 which caused Israel to withdraw from the canal.  On September 4th, 1975, the UN peacekeeping force was put in between the 2 armies to barricade further attacks. On the evening of November 19, 1977, Egyptian President  Anwar Al Sadat made history by being the first Arab leader to visit Israel. In his autobiography, In Search for Identity  Al Sadat says “In the afternoon I went to Knesset. I made my speech, which was followed by speeches from Premier Begin and Opposition Leader Peres. In spite of the great emotional and physical fatigue, I felt very happy indeed.”   Despite criticism from neighboring Arab countries, Al Sadat continued to make peace with the Israeli Prime Minister and on September 17, 1978, the 2 leaders met again in the US to negotiate an agreement with US President Jimmy Carter at Camp David, Maryland. At the brink of failure, when Sadat threatened to leave and Carter was planning to return to the white house and suffer the political consequences of failure.  An agreement was finally formed on the last day when, at the last minute, Begin agreed to allow the Knesset to decide the fate of the settlements Israelis had established on the Sinai Peninsula.  Israel agreed to withdraw its troops from the Sinai Peninsula, and Egypt agreed to recognize Israel as an official nation. They eventually established the Camp David Accords, the first peace agreement between Israel and its neighboring Arab countries. This was the official framework for peace in the  Middle East.  The “Framework for Peace in the Middle East,” had three parts: a process for Palestinian self-government in the West Bank and Gaza,  a framework for the conclusion of a peace treaty between Egypt and Israel, and a similar framework for peace treaties between Israel and its other neighbors.    On March 26, 1979, the  3 leaders-Anwar Al Sadat, Jimmy Carter, and Menachem Begin- stood at the White House to sign the Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty. They joined hands and shared big smiles. Sadat and Begin were awarded the 1978 Nobel Peace Prize for their accomplishments.
