Supports. The Reuters chronology and the U.S. Office of the Historian both date the proclamation of the State of Israel to May 14, 1948, after the period in question.[1][2]
Supports. A University of Kentucky history of the Jewish people describes the end of a Jewish state after 70 CE and places its restoration in 1948, with the 1933–1945 Nazi persecution falling in between.[3]
Supports. The USHMM encyclopedia describes the State of Israel as established on May 14, 1948, when most Holocaust survivors had hoped for a homeland, which implies that no Jewish state existed during the Holocaust years.[4]
Context. The 1947 UN Partition Resolution set the stage for the 1948 state, but it did not create a state before the British mandate ended in May 1948.[2]
