1/ Throughout the 1940s in British Mandatory Palestine, tensions were high. After the war, the Jewish militias launched full-throated attacks against the British to get them to evacuate Palestine. The Jews were ready for a state of their own.
2/ In 1946, the lesser known Morrison-Grady partition plan was proposed by the British, which proposed British trusteeship over two autonomous regions of Palestine - one for the Jews, one for the Arabs. This plan was promptly panned.
