Ted Re..My point was that the Palestinians in 1947 were mostly farmers and ranchers.

And????? Most of our servicemen were also farmers and ranchers, or even worse, city slickers.

If the Palestinians played a role in the Arab League, it was a very small one. The major players in the Arab League were the Egyptians and Syrians and Jordanians.

Once again so what? The Palestinians had a small force, but when combined with the forces of their neighbors were outgunned at least 5 -1. Yes the Israelis came from the battlefields of Europe, but the Arabs had a huge numerical advantage. On paper, the Arabs should have won easily.
