This week, Israel actually marks its 76th Independence Day.

Some call it the Nakba, like Jewish Voice for Peace among others.

It really doesnt take a lot of intelligence to realize that the war started by Israeli independence and the Arab states' war declaration caused the Nakba. Israeli independence itself is not identical with the Nakba. Two intertwined things.

Please tell me more about this. But -god forbid- do not take a look at the Jewish Voice for Peace link provided above.

No the Naqba started 6 months before the establishment of the state of Israel.
