Israel’s international “birth certificate” is validated by the promise of the Old Testament, New Testament, and in the Quran; uninterrupted and interrupted Jewish settlements from the time of Joshua onward; the Balfour Declaration of 1917; the League of Nations Mandate; the United Nations Partition Resolution of 1947; declaration of Statehood in 1948; Israel’s admission to the UN in 1949; the recognition of Israel by more than 180 other Countries; and, most of all, the society created by Israel’s people in over seven decades of thriving, dynamic national existence.
