  What would you do if you had just a few hours to declare a new country before invading armies arrived? In this episode of Everything Jewish: 10 Minutes at a Time , we'll relive the extraordinary day of May 14, 1948, when David Ben-Gurion proclaimed the establishment of the State of Israel in a modest hall in Tel Aviv. We'll discover why the declaration was rushed, what the Declaration of Independence actually says, who signed it, how the United States and Soviet Union responded, and why celebration quickly gave way to war.

  The United Nations Vote for Partition in 1947 in 10 Minutes

  Oct 2, 202613 min

  Could a single vote change the course of world history? In this episode of Everything Jewish: 10 Minutes at a Time , we'll revisit the dramatic events surrounding the United Nations Partition Plan of 1947, when the world voted on whether to divide the British Mandate of Palestine into separate Jewish and Arab states. We'll explore why the proposal was made, how delegates lobbied feverishly for every last vote, why Jewish leaders accepted a plan that gave them imperfect borders, why Arab leaders rejected it, and how one historic decision set the stage for both the birth of Israel and the first Arab-Israeli war. It's one of the most consequential votes ever cast—and its impact is still felt today.

  The British White Paper of 1939 in 10 Minutes

  Oct 1, 202613 min

  Issued by the British government in May 1939 , just months before the outbreak of World War II , the White Paper of 1939 dramatically changed the course of Zionist history. Reversing decades of British support for a Jewish national home, it sharply limited Jewish immigration to Palestine at the very moment that European Jews were desperately seeking refuge from Nazi persecution. The policy also restricted Jewish land purchases and envisioned an independent Palestinian state governed jointly by Arabs and Jews within ten years. In this episode, we'll explore why Britain abandoned its earlier commitments under the Balfour Declaration, how the White Paper affected Jewish efforts to escape the Holocaust, why it provoked fierce opposition from the Zionist movement, and how it helped set the stage for the Jewish revolt against the British and the eventual creation of the State of Israel.

  The Hebron Massacre of 1929 in 10 Minutes

  Sep 30, 202613 min

  For centuries, Hebron was one of Judaism's four holiest cities, home to a small Jewish community living alongside its Arab neighbors. But in August 1929 , amid rising tensions over access to the Western Wall and the future of Mandatory Palestine, that centuries-old coexistence came to a tragic end. An Arab mob attacked the city's Jewish residents, murdering 67 Jews , wounding many others, and forcing the surviving community to flee after nearly 700 years of continuous Jewish presence . In this episode, we'll examine the causes of the Hebron Massacre of 1929 , what happened during those horrific days, the courageous Arabs who risked their lives to save Jewish neighbors, and how the massacre transformed Jewish-Arab relations and influenced the course of Zionist history.
