Why was Israel created in 1948? I mean AT ALL?
Was it really based ancient text from the Torah and Old Testament?
I know people who lived in Palestine during the 1940s and they said they were hardly any Jewish people living there at all and it was like 90% Palestinians.
So why was this done?
If you notice that is when "terrorism" started shortly thereafter.

It is ironic that the Israeli Defense forces attacked a flotilla of relief ships bound from Europe to Gaza in international waters in a manner all too similar to its assault against the USS Liberty also in international waters on June 8 forty-three years ago. It is even more tragic and a national disgrace that in the immediate aftermath of Memorial Day there is scant remembrance of the 34 crew members comprising naval officers, seamen, two marines and a civilian who were killed in the attack along with the 171 crew members who were wounded. While the official inquiries by both nations found the attack to be a case of mistaken identity of the Liberty, to this day there is a long record of distinguished officers and journalists who take strong exception to this view believing that the attack was deliberate. Indeed the attack on the Liberty is the only maritime incident in U.S. history where our military forces were killed that was never investigated by the Congress.

Jordan was created from the Palestinian Mandate too

I have no problem with the creation of Israel, if the Israelis would have abided by the UN decision and the allocation of land. Instead, they took the areas designated to the people who were already living there.

They didn't want Jordan because it's mostly useless desert. Northern Israel is like a huge Oasis - it has a pleasant Mediterranean climate and better soil than most of the Middle East.

I understand to a degree the question is rhetorical, but the answer is basically we (the UK) promised it...
