Only President Truman’s support of the partition, giving the 30 percent Jewish minority governance of most of Palestine, accounted for the United Nations’ approval. Yet, when Israel launched its long-planned systematic ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their ancestral homes and Truman demanded that they cease and allow refugees to return home, Israeli operatives assassinated a U.N. mediator and brushed off Truman — Israel needed more land for its security. Israel’s ethnic cleansing of 800,000 Palestinians violated U.N. charter articles.
