Part 2
World War II saw the Arabs driven by British colonialism to support the Axis. Lebanon and Syria gained their independence from France during the war, but Britain sought to maintain its dominion over the Holy Land and other areas of the Middle East. The Haganah, Irgun, and Stern organizations sought successfully to drive out the British occupiers, and Israel was born in 1948; war with the neighboring Arab states began immediately. But the birth of Israel also gave birth to a passionate Arab sense of nationalism.
