Ngokomlando, lendawo kwakuyizwe lamaKhanani, okuthiwa uThixo wathembisa ukuyiphanga amaKhanani ayinike inzalo ka-Abhrahama. Miningi imibuso emlandweni eyalwa izimpi ukuze ilawule lelizwe. Ngekhulu leminyaka le-19, ukuzondwa kwamaJuda eYurophu kwaphehla umbutho wobuziyoni ukuba ufune indawo okuzoba ikhaya labaJuda.  IBrithani yawusria lombono ngesimemezelo sikaBalfour ngowe-1917 futhi yaqala ukulawula iPalestina kusuka ngowe-1920. Ukutheleka kwamaJuda ePalestina nokuphanga kwawo izwe lamaPalestina kwasusa izinxushunxushi phakathi kwabaJuda nabanini mhlaba, futhi ngonyaka we-1947 iNhlangano Yezizwe lapho ihlukanisa izwe, kwaqhuma Impi yangaphakathi ezweni.

Umkhenene wangowe-1949 wanika elase-Isirayeli uMhlaba omningi okwedlula loyo elaliwunikwe iNhlangano Yezizwe; futhi alikho izwe lama-Arabhu eladalwa, njengoba indawo yase-West Bank yabekwa phansi kweJordani, futhi isiqephu saseGaza sabekwa phansi kweGibhithe. Iningi lamaPalestina labaleka futhi laxhoshwa ukuze kudliwe uMhlaba walo, kwasala abambalwa kuphela. Ngemuva kweMpi Yezinsuku Eziyisithupha ngowe-1967, elase-Isirayeli laqala ukuphanga indawo yase-West Bank nesiqephu saseGaza, iSinayi laseGibhithe, nendawo i-Golan Heights yaseSiriya, futhi laphanga ingxenye esentshona yeJerusalema — okuyizenzo zokuphanga izwe ezaziphula umthetho wamazwe omhlaba. Impi iqhubeke njalo kwaze kwaba ngowe-1979 mhla kucikicwa isivumelwano sokuthula nelaseGibhithe (elabuyelwa iSinayi ngowe-1982) ezinye sacikicwa neJordani ngowe- 1994.

Kodwa indaba yokuphangwa komhlaba ayikaxazululwa kuze kube namuhla, futhi amaPalestina hlezi alwela inkululeko nomhlaba wawo. Ukuphangwa kwezwe lawo yinto egxekwa abantu bamazwe omhlaba. Futhi kusuka kuhlaselo lwamhla ziyiikhonbisa ku-Okthobha 2023, elase-Isirayeli laqala umkhankaso wokuqothula abantu basePalestina abahlala eGaza.
