1948: Israel Independence War
One day after the State of Israel was proclaimed in 1948, the surrounding Arab nations -- Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Iraq -- declared war on the fledgling state, with the objective of "driving the Jews into the sea." Tel Aviv was bombed on that very first day of the War of Independence. Video
