You’re missing out quite a bit of information there in your bid to paint Israel as the victim of unprovoked violence.
You can’t mention 1948 without mentioning 1947 when Zionist terror groups began exterminating Palestinians in order to cleanse additional cities, towns and hamlets they wanted, prompting the mass exodus of Palestinians from their homes.
The fall out from this violence sparked the 1948 conflict between the nascent state of Israel and its neighbours who now had a massive refugee problem on their hands.
The same ‘peace loving’ Zionist militants bombed a hotel full of British officers – the very same officers who’d enabled the creation of the state of Israel as promised by Lord Balfour! The peaceful Zionist fanatics also assasinated the first UN Middle East mediator Folke Bernadott.
Then in 67, Israel launched a devastating surprise attack on its Arab neighbours and had the cheek to describe it as a defensive war and blame Egypt & Syria for starting it! During the week-long conflict Israel’s ‘peace-loving’ army shot hundreds of POWs in the desert, forcing may of them to dig their own graves, and it acheived what it had set out to – expand, by seizing the Golan Heights, West Bank, Gaza, and a slice of Sinai. For reasons only known to Israel, the IDF also decided to bomb an American spy ship – which had been helping them! – killing dozens of US sailors.
This conflict then laid the ground for the 1973 war you mention where Syria and Egypt tried to take back some of the territory stolen in 67, so not really an unprovoked attack.
Since then Israel has continued to kill thousands upon thousands of Palestinians and annex the teeny tiny bits of land the displaced have been packed into, and then wonders why its actions are subject to global criticism. Rather than addressing its repeated violations of international law, it calls its critics ‘antisemites’ or assassinates them.
