Akuperma,
1. The Egyptians had tanks and an air force
2. The Arab Legion was well tra
3. The Israelis had no tanks and very little artillery
4. The Israelis were great outnumbered
5. The Israelis had only a handful of old WWII era planes
In other words, despite your claims, it was a miracle that they prevailed. Also, Britain was bankrupt and wanted no part of th expense of policing Palestine
