Hakatan- can you clarify which Jews were against the Zionists “invading?” Jews were returning to Eretz Yisroel in droves pre WWII which is our God given right. We knew that as long as EY was in control of someone else, that our right to return would be limited… And that came true when the British issued the White Papers preventing the escapees and survivors of the Holocaust to come home. Other than hardcore 3 Shvuah-nicks who thinks establishing a state is the fourth yeihareg veal yaavor, who at the time was against us establishing a state, even via war, to ensure that all Jews worldwide would have our home available and accessible to return to?
And I’m also not sure it was an invasion. The World gave us a state when the British left and then the new state was invaded by the Arabs.
