Would Israel exist if there never was a Holocaust? Yes. Not exactly where it is and as it is, but it would exist.

Would Israel exist if there never was a Holocaust?Definitely yes. The Balfour Declaration and other British government documents from the 1910s and 1920s made it clear that they supported a Jewish state in what is now Israel.

Yes, for sure. It may have come about a bit later than 1948 were it not for The Holocaust, however.

A curious question. Would Israel exist if there never was a Holocaust? A Jewish state might have existed a bit earlier, if not for Hitler.
It would have been insane for Jews to fight the British during WWII. But if there had been no WWII, who knows?
