Looking for I/P map that was posted the other day

[JNelson6563]

I wish I'd have posted in the thread so I could find it easily. Someone posted three maps in a thread about the I/P conflict that clearly showed the changes in territories held by Israel. Can someone post that if you know what I'm talking about? I've tried google but haven't found any that so clearly mark the differences in land holdings. Any help would be appreciated.

1. Maybe it's in the I/P forum

:shrug:

You could also check with your local librarian. They're good at that sort of thing

The arabs refused to accept and declared war on Israel

10. Seeing is believing.

Sweep away all of the talk, those maps tell the story in totally unambiguous terms.

11. Holly shit, the Isreaeli settlements take up that much of Palistinian territory?

OMG, that doesn't even look possible! :wow:

On a related note, it the whole thing ever gets worked out I always thought Israel and Palestine should put a chunk of the Negev under joint control and start a big irrigation project, with the Pal families getting half the new farmland and the Israelis getting the other half, it would help relieve all the crowding in Gaza.

12. No, Sir, That Is Not What The Final Map Indicates

It shows a deliniation of administrative areas: the portion colored as 'Palestinian land' is where the Palestine Authority had, in the year 2000, responsibility for civil administration of Arab Palestinian affairs. It does divide into where Jews have or have not settled, or where Paestinians do or do not live.

The next to last map, labeled '1950-1967', indicates as 'Palestinian land' areas which were under the rule of Jordan and Egypt during that period, rule which was not widely popular among the Arab Palestinian populace. During this period, what agitation for a state of Palestine there was located that projected state not on the area the map labels 'Palestinian land', but on the territory of Israel, which was to be 'liberated' and become the state of Palestine, with the areas in green on the map remaining in Jordanian and Egyptian hands.

The other two maps are straightforward enough, though the first could benefit from deliniating 'state land' held by the Mandatory authority, andlkand which was little populated at all. Jewish population was concentrated in cities, and so simple acreage does not provide a wholly accurate sense of proportions between the peoples.
