Original Note:
These quotes reference the War of Independence, also known as the Arab-Israeli War of 1948. In this war, Israel was attacked the day after declaring independence, by forces from Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, and Egypt. This was therefore a defensive war for the Israelis. https://history.state.gov/milestones/1945-1952/arab-israeli-war https://www.britannica.com/event/Arab-Israeli-wars https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounder/war-independence-1948-1949
