1949-1951: The Young State
The Arab defeat in the War of Independence did not bring an end to Arab violence against Israel. Despite numerous overtures of peace from the Israeli government, the Arab world continued to threaten and perpetrate violence against the young state. The London Times reported in March, 1949, that the Arabs were by no means finished with their struggle against Israel. However, Egypt, Trandjordan and Syria did sign armistice agreements with Israel during that year. The war was over, but the Arabs were certainly not satisfied. Jordan maintained a strict policy forbidding Jews to visit the Western Wall or the Temple Mount. Arab infiltrators known as Fedayeen attacked civilians through the first half of the 1950s. Peace in the region remained elusive and still has not been achieved today.
